I probably will not get the job done but they were very helpful. I wanted the table top refinished so I wouldn't have to use a tablecloth and it would be water repellent. They can do that. I sent a picture with the dimensions of the table and they responded with an email giving me the estimate. It was all done online and I didn't have any contact by phone. It wasn't a good or bad experience and I am not sure I could tell what they are like.
Description of Work: Wright Refinishing & Repair gave me an estimate for refinishing a table top.

Jim Wright is the owner and he does excellent work. It is expensive but it is a beautiful job done. It is worth it if you want a fine job done and nice finish on your furniture. You can count on the quality of his work.
Description of Work: They re-finished a number of furniture for us including the antique ones.

The work is gorgeous. He was very prompt. We had some people coming from Paris, and he met his deadline. He was very courteous. He made a number of suggestions to my wife about changes in the furniture that would make it a better piece.
Description of Work: He did two lovely pieces of furniture for us and we were satisfied.

Jim was able to identify the vintage and likely origin of the furniture in some detail. He took care to advise us during the process and called us in to see the stripped product in order to see the options for stain colors on the actual wood.
Description of Work: Stripped, re-finished and made minor repairs to two pieces of furniture (bedroom dresser and a matching commode.)

Jim was unable to be helpful with my project.
Description of Work: No work was performed. Jim was unable to be helpful with my project. Let me jump through many hoops and finally identified he could not help me. The place was difficult to find, I had to spend 5 minutes yelling in the office before he responded. This was after I talked with him 5 minutes previously identifying I was coming. Brought the pictures, piece of furniture and he was unable to help me with an estimate. This was an unpleasant and frustrating experience. I would not recommend this company from a customer service perspective. I can not comment on the work since it was not completed.

Jim is an artist! When I was removing the tables from my vehicle, he could immediately tell me approximately when they were made, what wood they were made of and who manufactured them. He inspected them in front of me and said they were worth refinishing. He pointed out different factors, like that one of the tables had a decorative insert that would need special care. I got a tour of his shop and got to see other furniture in various stages of refinishing. He gave me an estimate that was acceptable for the type of work he was going to do and a realistic assessment of how the tables would turn out. A week later he had the tables stripped and asked me to come in to discuss the finish. I picked the tables up about a week later. They look amazing! Not even like the same tables! The hardware was also cleaned up, and the interiors of drawers were included in the refinishing.
Description of Work: Refinishing of two tables (one end table, one medium sized round table). One table needed some repairs. The end table had some decorative inserts that were old and fragile and needed special care. Only possible problem is the shop is open Monday-Friday, 9:00 am-5:00 pm. This was not a problem for me because I have free time during the day. I don't know if he sees clients at other hours, but for a person who works weekdays, this could be a problem.

They were extremely helpful and friendly. They gave options on how the pieces could be repaired with estimates. They also gave a history on the pieces, which was very interesting. They did a great job on the repair. I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: They refinished top of the antique end table that had water damage and leg of a chair that had a piece broken off.

I appreciated the honest and helpful advise I received. The owner gave me an idea for something I could do to brace the chairs for the time being.
Description of Work: I went to Wright's with some dining room chairs that were getting wobbly, and one that was broken. The owner looked at them and advised me that they weren't worth the money it would take to fix them.

Very positive. Mr. Wright explained what he proposed to do. He gave us a written, detailed estimate with a projected completion date. He fully performed the work. The refinishing job was beautiful, and it was completed before the projected completion date and for the amount of the estimate. I highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: Refinished tops of two nightstands.

Frank was very easy to work with! He was honest about the time it would take for the repair (he had some other jobs to do first), he did an excellent job on the repairs. And wow! We were pleasantly surprised at the low cost of the repair! Now we know our go-to person for furniture repair!

JIM WRIGHT IS AN AMAZING CRAFTSMAN AND IS EXCELLENT AT WHAT HE DOES. IT DID TAKE SIX MONTHS, BUT HE WAS WORKING AT RESTORING MUSEUM QUALITY PIECES AND JUST FIT OURS IN WHEN HE COULD. THAT WAS FINE WITH US BECAUSE WE HAD NO DEADLINE. HE IS EXPENSIVE, BUT THE QUALITY OF THIS MAN'S WORK IS TOP-NOTCH. HE COULD DO WHAT MANY PLACES SAID THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DO.
Description of Work: WE BROUGHT A BROKEN CHAIR WITH INTRICATE DETAILED PIECES MISSING TO JIM WRIGHT AND HE RESTORED AND FIXED THE CHAIR WITH THE UTMOST SKILL AND CARE.
