Very well. I would highly recommend this business.
Description of Work: I took my grandmother's Victorian rocking chair in for repair because one of the wooden braces had been broken. The cost of the repair was probably more than the entire chair was worth on the open market but the nice folks at Schoenbauer understood that this was a matter of love. They were quite candid with me about whether the repair was worth doing but once they were assured that I wanted it done, they did a fantastic job.

I love it! A little more expensive than I would have wanted, but I am very pleased with the result. Vivian at Schoenbauer's was professional and patient with me as I agonized over fabric choices. Pick up and Delivery was careful and professional as well. Overall a wonderful choice!

Description of Work: They fixed the springs in an antique chair. Thought the price was a little high, but wanted to make sure it was done right, since it was a genuine antique. They did a very good job. And yes, I would recommend their work.

I have had work done by them in the past and I am very happy with them. They are great and do very high quality work. They may be a tad on the pricey side, but it was the best value for us.

FABULOUS. Never dreamed the trunk could be repaired and refinished to perfection. . I'd been dubious because of the condition of the piece I was giving them. The company is located rather far away from my home but is worth every minute of the time.

This is the third occasion where I have used Schoenbauer's service. Initially they repaired some scratches on wooden furniture for me, as well as a dining room table top. Now I am an out of state, absentee landlord. My painter dropped some pain on a newly refinished floor which ate into the "clear coat" Schoenbauer went in and fixed the situation. They were so easy to work with; willing to go out of their way to assist me. I highly recommend them. Very professional! I highly recommend them. Very professional!
Description of Work: Schoenbauer repaired a spot on my hardwood floor that had been damaged by a chemical.

The technician arrived on time and was courteous. He quickly repaired the damage to the table and assessed that the other hinged sides needed reinforcement. All the work (even that outside of the original scope of work) was completed quickly and within the original price estimate.
Description of Work: Two hinged sides of an antique butler table were damaged during a recent move. Because those sides had been inexpertly repaired before, they required a litte extra tlc.

Bill Schoenbauer himself came to our house traveling over 100 miles! He came twice so I am very impressed. Bill repaired our leather sofa (looks perfect!) our king poster bed and many other items, including chairs, cabinets, furniture, etc. I was so impressed by Bill and his professionalism. He does immaculate work and double and triple checks everything. He made sure the job was done right. Normally I look over the shoulder of repair companies, however Bill immediately made me feel comfortable and I could tell he is an expert in his field. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Very well. I got e-mails and phone calls throughout the repair and scheduling pickup and delivery was very simple and straightforward.
Description of Work: They came and picked up my vintage bed and repaired a broken finial and side rail adding reinforcement to the side rails as well repairing a piece of wood where the slats sit. They were conscientious about keeping in touch with me throughout the repair and they finished the work in less than 2 weeks/

These guys are the best and they live up to their reputation.
Description of Work: We worked with Joe Huffman, who was absolutely great, knowledgeable, and very professional. We needed to replace a bed post from an antique, Indonesian teak bed as well as a curio cabinet. Schoenbauer replaced the bed post, and as a bonus, repaired the original broken one for no charge. The work was so good, we could not tell the original (broken) post from the replacement. We were very satisfied, and would use them for any furniture repair needs.

Excellent! I've dealt with this company before and always been delighted with the attitude, the experience and the outcome.
Description of Work: Restored painted chairs and oriental screen. The screen is quite old and had been damaged by a cleaning compound. Not only did Mr. Schoenbauer restore the damage to the screen but he also repaired some of the missing mother-of-pearl. Two old walnut chair seats were also re-caned.

The work was done promptly and the table looked absolutely gorgeous afterward. I was very pleased with the result. While the work was not inexpensive, the cost was within the estimated price range and I think was reasonable given the quality of the work performed. I would definitely recommend Schoenbauer Furniture Service to anyone interested in having work done on furniture they care about.
Description of Work: In late 2006 I inherited a round oak table that had stood in my parents' home for many years. While well loved, it was somewhat the worse for wear. Schoenbauer Furniture Service stabilized the top, made minor repairs and then cleaned both the surface of the table and the three extra leaves. At the Schoenbauer representative's suggestion I did not have the table refinished since that would have removed the patina hidden under years of genteel grime.

They would have done an estimate via email if I could have provided digital pictures; instead they picked the pieces up and provided an oral estimate with written follow up. Their work was not inexpensive, but you get what you pay for in this case. The work is truly excellent. The family run company is professional and very responsive. The process was smooth from start to finish. I couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: I had an antique mahogany desk refinished and 4 teak chairs repaired and refinished.

I ve trusted these guys with several family heirlooms and have been really impressed with their results. They re not inexpensive but their work is well worth the price. Their base pickup fee remains the same regardless of the number of items they ll be working on, so it s to your advantage to have them refinish several pieces at one time. I was particularly impressed with the refinishing job they performed on the bookcase. Before they got their hands on it, this piece was rough and sticky (from a bad previous refinishing job approximately 30 years earlier). After they finished, the piece was gleaming and beautiful;an amazing transformation. They also did an excellent job of matching the wood grain on the card catalog.
Description of Work: Completely refinished bookcase with glass doors. Added a panel to the side of a vintage card catalog cabinet.

We were ecstatic with the job Schoenbauer did repairing our precious things that we brought back from Asia. They phoned in advance and arrived right on schedule. It was wonderful that they performed the work right in the house and were meticulous about not making a mess. The experts were also helpful in advising us about caring for the furniture to avoid cracking.
Description of Work: Following a move from overseas, we had a wooden Buddha statue that had it's feet broken off; also the movers damaged the finish on a wooden footboard. A refinisher from Schoenbauer came out to the house and did the repairs. It was miraculous! We had no idea the damage could be repaired so flawlessly. Also, a small key to a Vietnamese cabinet was lost in the move and they manufactured one to look identical.
