Since Doctor Bob was so busy we told him to work on our table when he could and that we were not in a hurry for it. He manage to fit in time here and there working on it in stages and finished it in about 7 weeks, which was a little before he had told us that we could expect it back. He did his magic and it turned out wonderfully. We are very please with its rebirth. You just have to look at the before pictures and then at the after pictures to see the transformation and the pictures do NOT really tell the whole story either. You really have to see it in person and touch and handle it to understand just how well the job turned out. It's now a very sturdy table with all its component parts present. Doctor Bob fabricated two new end carved skirts to match the side skirts and filled in the saw damage and refinished the table into a beautiful piece that we can enjoy again. He succeeded in making this table almost as beautiful as it used to be. He really did exceed our expectations.
Description of Work: We got an old, beat up coffee table with an inset carved horn of plenty that we were very fond of and wanted to restore it to its former glory - or as close as possible. Considering how much damage this poor table had endured that was a tall order for Doctor Bob. The damage was extensive (see the before pictures). There were two saw cuts in the top. Someone had used this pretty table for a saw horse and put a couple of large gashes in it.Two carved end skirts were completely missing.The table was literally falling apart.The finish was terrible. We left it in his shop *Bob's Furniture Hospital 64723 County Rd 15, Goshen, IN 46526* with high expectations since we have had him do other work for us we knew we would not be disappointed.

These folks always come up with great projects to challange us with. Sorry about the rough driveway. After getting estimates on paving 500 feet of hillside driveway, it may be a while.

We were very happy with the correspondence we had with Bob by email. He immediately understood our disappointment with the way our furniture had been handled by the first guy. His estimate was reasonable and the bill was just as he had said. Bob also volunteered to deliver our table and chairs to us when my husband couldn't get them picked up by Thanksgiving. We were so happy with the work he did that we sent 8 pieces of old furniture back with him! Bob is an honest guy and sincerely loves to restore furniture to its original beauty. We trust Bob with treasured family pieces, knowing how he feels about the value of good work. We're so happy to have found Bob's Furniture Hospital!
Description of Work: We contacted Bob about a dining room table and chairs we had purchased at an auction. We had had them refinished and the chairs reglued by someone else (a couple of the chairs were fixed twice), but they always loosened up again. Also, a screw kept falling out of the table, making the end leaf unstable. To top things off, the table finish was not hard as we had requested and had some scratches. Bob immediately knew the problem with the chairs--that is, the old glue had not been removed first--and fixed them the right way. He also refinished the table top and fixed the problem with the end leaf.

I submitted my plans to Bob via email. We talked about what I wanted and then I stopped by to see the materials and to further discuss options, time frame and price. I made a few small changes and he suggested a couple which I saw the wisdom of so incorporated those as well. Then I left him alone. He produced my cabinets on time and they couldn't be better.
Description of Work: Bob does such great work and so reasonable that I just have to keep coming back. Besides he's a great guy to deal with My kinda guy. I contracted him to make 2 custom knife cabinets to my specifications and he produced, on time, on budget two quality cabinets for my knife collection (see pictures to view his expertize). I couldn't be more please. ON TIME, ON BUDGET, PERFECTION - the cabinets were just what I was expecting. ANOTHER OUTSTANDING JOB by Doctor BOB Thanks Doctor Bob.

It couldn't have gone better. We drop off a piece that has potential and he reveals the hidden beauty in whatever we bring to him. You won't be disappointed.
Description of Work: Doctor Bob has performed miracles on several more of our antique pieces of furniture. His ability is only surpassed by his great personality. He is so easy to deal with and fun to talk to that I look for things around the house for him to work on just so I can go visit and be amazed again. The last three projects have been an little ornate antique table that I thought belonged in the trash but my wife saw a disguised jewel, creating a missing piece for an antique dinning room hutch and repairing a clock cabinet. ALL these projects exceeded my expectations. He's amazing.

Bob the Furniture Hospital person and Ron the Chemist and furniture finish person. Each have decades of experience repairing and refinishing fine quality office furniture. We learned this when we saw Bob's small road side sign. We stopped to see if he does the type of work we needed done to restore our 20 year old dining chairs. Bob introduced us to his friend Ron. Who lives a couple miles away down the road & does wood finishing work. In talking with them about their backgrounds and about what they do daily in their respective shops. They gained our trust. Their price was modest, they kept their word to complete the work in just 3 weeks. The quality of their work is outstanding. The chairs are like New !
Description of Work: Repaired 2 broken and 4 loose joints. Filled dent & gauges and over stained, sealed and applied, 2 top coats of lacquer on 4 Chippendale-style dining chairs. With Queen Ann front legs, carved back splat, tapered spindles & curved arm bows. All made from Ash lumber. See attached picture of these chairs supplied by their manufacturer.

Very well. See above for the details.
Description of Work: I brought Dr. Bob my antique Grandmother clock case that had some veneer issues. Apparently they inlay was not done correctly in the very beginning and needed to be reset and smoothed out. There were a couple of other items that needed attention that Bob took care of and I asked for leveling feet to be applied as well. He supplied those without charge for them as he had them in stock for past projects. He did a good job and even stopped by my house to see how the finished project turned out. I am, once again, very satisfied with the results of his professional efforts. He's a most affable gentleman and does great work. I will be using his services many time in the future I'm sure.
