We purchased a home with dog urine stains on all the wood floors. Aaron Nordmeyer removed and replaced the slats where the stains could not be removed, then sanded and sealed the entire floors in 4 rooms. He was able to do this before we moved in and took about a week. The job does create a lot of dust so this was ideal. We were extremely pleased with the results and especially the resultant lack of urine odor in the home. He advised us to check in case he missed anything and he did come back when we found a very small corner that missed the sealant. Aaron was pleasant and professional and very gracious to work with our timetable.

I cannot give a higher recommendation for Jim and his team! They picked up the dining set in pieces from our storage unit and delivered it all back to our home bright as new and assembled it for us -- in time for Christmas!! It is absolutely beautiful. We sent him off with a radio and various chairs to redo!

Aaron refinished our stairway and did an excellent job. We will absolutely be using him again and recommending him to family/friends. The work was completed efficiently, and Aaron always cleaned up at the end of the day. He was very kind and professional. We couldn't be happier!

I spoke with Jim on the phone and setup a time for him to come to my home and evaluate if working on my sectional was worth it. He said it way and took 1/2 of the sectional to repair a broken support beam. He also reinforced the entire sectional, plus reupholstered the part very nicely. He brought the first half back to me and showed up on time like he said. He took the other half and reinforced that half and delivered it back to me on time. Awesome experience and I would absolutely recommend hiring him. He is a stand-up guy and has a great family owned business with him sons. Great experience at a great price. I don't really mind for paying high quality service and he does this.

Jim was able to quickly fix 5 of our dining room chairs. He was very friendly, competent and professional. He also provided a timely repair. Jim even attempted to deliver our chairs to us the morning of the Stormnado that hit our neighborhood! We're so grateful to know a quality, dependable furniture restoration service!

The first piece that was repaired was a coffee table where some walnut trim had peeled off and the metal brackets needed refinishing. The repaired section of the trim blends in seamlessly with the rest of the piece and Aaron repainted the brass finish on the brackets with a hammered metalic paint that gives the piece a more modern, updated appearance. The whole thing looks great. The other piece was a late 1950s/early 1960s walnut dresser which was originally my grandmother's. It was in really bad shape; stained, scratched, peeling, broken drawer pulls, you name it. What he returned to us was a beautiful, flawless piece, stained slightly darker which now matches our bedroom furniture. He picked out the new drawer pulls and they are really awesome, perfect fit for the piece. I was absolutely blown away when I saw it. The process was very smooth. Aaron was easy to contact via phone or email and was always prompt in his replies. His estimates for both time and price were very close, and he was professional throughout the process. I was pleased with the experience and would recommend them without hesitation.

Very prompt in communication, whether by email, phone or text and excellent look in the end. Had looked into a few other companies and this was somewhat less expensive. Also I like that he gave me this option in the estimate as other companies only wanted a full refinish which was going to cost a few hundred more. Thanks for the great experience.

We had Aaron come back and do a second project for us...this time he sanded, stained, and finished our original hardwood floors and newer oak hardwood floors in our home. Aaron is a perfectionist and we knew after the care and attention to detail he displayed when he refinished an antique sideboard and a couple tables that we would be pleased with the results. He had to fill a couple holes, and stain 2 different floors (white oak and red oak) to match. The project came out perfectly! Our floors are beautiful and you wouldn't even be able to tell they are 2 different types of Oak. Wanna know how awesome Aaron is? We left to go on Vacation and handed him the keys to our house and let him work while we were not there so we wouldnt be in the way. We walked in from our week long vacation and was so happy with the results, the best kind of renovation project we could ask for. Aaron is one of the most talented wood experts I have ever met, if you need something done whether it be floors, cabinets, or furniture I wouldn't hesitate to contact him.

When the tables were brought back, I was not happy with them. He took the tables back to redo the finish. Again, when he brought them back on July 31, 2014 I was still not completely happy. I was going to leave it alone but then I noticed there were some nicks on the edges. I let him know about the nicks and he gave me his word he would come back to touch them up. He never came back, even after I called him multiple times. His wife finally called me back on Nov. 19, 2014 and said they would just write us a check for $50 instead of fixing the nicks. Now I am left with nicks in my tables that I will have to find someone else to fix. I was not satisfied with this company and would not recommend him.
