The pieces were finished beautifully. The work was quick and professional. Bob worked with our schedule and even helped load and unload the pieces. We went back with our kitchen chairs. He glued everything tight and did another great job refinishing them. Definitely would recommended him (and we already have) and take additional pieces to him.
Description of Work: We had a mahogany chest-on-chest dresser and two mahogany bedside tables refinished.

Bob refinished my dining room table with two leaves. He offered to refinish one leaf at no charge initially. He refinished the leaf , asked for me to inspect and approve. It looked good, so he was hired to complete the table and additional leaf. He did an excellent job. As a result, I had him refinish three other antique tables of mine and again, he did a great job. I would use him again. His prices were fair and workmanship excellent.One

I called Bob to refinish some antique furniture that had been on my wife's side of the family for decades. The furniture had been in storage for 20 plus years and was languishing in our basement in deteriorating condition. He came to our home and asked us specific questions about our expectations and preferences. He refinished a chest of drawers, a dresser with mirror, head and foot boards for a bed and a small desk. He took one piece at a time over a period of 15 weeks.Each time he returned with pieces that more than met our expectations. My wife was elated by the work. We have since relocated the furniture to our retirement farm in Oklahoma where it has been brought back into use. We are years from retirement but can enjoy the furniture now during our vacations. Bob is an honest man who quoted us a fair price and delivered on that price. He even advised us that our desk was inexpensively made and economically not worth doing. Since it was an heirloom we had him refinish it anyway. It is great to be able to re-utilize furniture that had been used by previous generations and will be passed on to future generations.

I took the chairs to Bob's shop. In about a week, he called to say the job was finished.
Description of Work: Bob repaired two rosewood dining room chairs. The repairs could not be detected and the chairs looked great. Bob was friendly and professional. The job was done in a short amount of time and reasonably priced.

The cost was about $20 more than I had wanted to pay but I'm sure I would have paid more than $100 somewhere else. The final product was worth that $20. I'm very happy how it turned out. I justified the cost since I didn't have to pay for the table.
Description of Work: Received a table from my mother which needed refinishing. My sister had used Bob for another piece (small sewing chest posted with picture on Angie's List) and liked his work. She had originally found him on Angie's List. Dropped off table and picked it up today. It looks like a new table.

We were extremely pleased with the end result. Bob discussed everything from stain selection to brass cleanup to make certain that we would be happy with our selections. Work was completed on schedule and price was really reasonable.

I always wanted this sewing chest of my grandmother's and my mom never would give it up. She finally did when she decided to move to an apartment. While carrying it to my car, I dropped it, and the wood on one side broke. I thought I could glue it together, but didn't have the proper tools to allow the glue to set. I called Bob after finding him in Angie's list. We agreed on a time for me to bring the chest to him. He gave me a good price to fix and clean up the chest. It was done several days before he said it would be. I picked it up and am so pleased. It looks better than when I broke it.

Its always a pleasure to work with Bob. Because these items were small I was able to take them to Bob for repair. He quoted me a fair price, said they'll be done in two weeks and I left knowing that the work would be beautiful. They were done right on time and were certainly beautiful. I'm already thinking about my next project and how Bob might be involved!
Description of Work: This is the second time I had Bob do work for me. The first occasion was two dressers and two night stands. The most recent work involved sanding and re-staining the top of a coffee table and a Jasper secretary leaf. Both of these items had the finish damaged from something solvent-like.

He was fabulous. We took the furniture to him. He didn't come to the house. He did a fabulous job. It was outstanding. It was reasonably priced, it was within the time frame I needed it in, and it was excellent work. It was so good we dropped off 4 wooden kitchen chairs. He re-glued them and refinished them. They came out excellent too.

Couldn't be happier. My wife had a Kitchen table she wanted refinished. She had treated it years ago with some wood treatment that a furniture store sold her and it ruined the table. I found Bob on Angies List and was hopeful based on his recent reviews. I told him about my problem and a few days later he had stopped over my house to look at the table. He ended up taking the table and told me it would be about 2 weeks. His plan was to sand the table, restain to match the original color and add some protectant on top. 2 weeks later, I received a call from Bob telling me the table was finished. He delivered the table to my house and man does it look good. It actually looks like a brand new table. My wife couldn't be happier. Bob was very professional, great to work with and best of all, reasonably priced. I will definitely use him in the future.

Bob did a very nice job of refinishing and reparing a mahogany piano stool (age unknown, but it has been in our family for at least 60 years). I thought the price was very reasonable, and he delivered it in the timetable he promised. He even called me during the job to make sure the color of the refinishing was what I wanted. Overall it was a very satisfactory experience and I would definitely call him again.

Bob picked up our work and gave us a cost estimate at the time of pickup. He told us it would be cheaper if we picked up and/or delivered. Size would limit our options and maybe his too. The final cost never exceeded his estimate. He is located in the Lawerenceville area I believe.
Description of Work: Bob has done two pieces for us this last year; a deacons bench and a drop leaf coffee table that over 30 years has been thru 4 children, two dogs, a cat and young guests too numerous to mention. He did a great job and we plan to send him more work and some referrals.

I had joined Angie’s list in order to find a reputable furniture refinisher. I was impressed by Bob's ratings and the comments from his customers. I contacted Bob and explained what I wanted done. I had indicated that it would be no problem for me to bring the chest to him. He gave me a firm estimate when I brought in the chest. I was hoping to have the chest finished before the holidays in order to surprise my wife. Given his backlog of work he indicated that he thought it could be done in time but he didn’t want to make a firm promise. I had no problem with that given the proximity to the holidays. I left the chest with him and in 10 days he called and said it was ready for pickup! This gave me plenty of time to pick up the chest prior to the holidays. I am very pleased with the results as is my wife.
Description of Work: Refinished cedar chest (aproximately 18"H x 20"D x 54"L) Work included removing old finish, repairing a crack on the lid, staining & varnishing exterior of the chest and cleaning / polishing all hardware.

Bob had earlier done several small jobs for us very well and at a very reasonable price. Bob is responsive, prompt, courteous and very, very good at what he undertakes. He is also honest about what he can and can't do.
Description of Work: After our move to a differently configured space, a chair that had needed regluing, a small table with a marred top, and a long-neglected 48" chest, which needed to be completely refinished, all needed work. Bob came when called, carried them away, and returned them in like-new condition.

The table turned out beautifully. I decided, with Bob's help, to use a satin finish on the table, which turned out to be a wonderful recommendation. The table is exquisite, and with the soft finish it looks like the elegant and antique piece it was originally. Bob was punctual with both the time for the estimate and delivery of the table. My daughter who lives in Virginia was here when he delivered the table, and is going to bring bedsteads that belonged to my mother up here for Bob to refinish! I couldn't be more pleased with this experience. Bob is going to refinish my dining room table, which has suffered "the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" through the years. The price for the work on the pie crust table was very reasonable, and the estimate for the dining room table is also.
Description of Work: Bob completely refinished an antique pie crust table that had moisture damage, chips and markings, and one claw shaped foot had been chewed by a dog.

The request was just for re-gluing....but at no additional cost he made sure all the seats fit properly and also cleaned the chairs. We have nothing but good things to say. He was prompt in turning around the job, kept to his word on price and did a very nice job.

He is a master at it and he fixed the table so well that you would not even notice the work. He brought up some design in the pie table that I did not even know about because it was very old. The price was very good.

Everything went really well. Bob picked up the table and we agreed that he'd have it for 2-3 weeks. We talked on the phone about how the crack could be handled and agreed not to use any kind of putty, but to do the best that he could on minimizing the crack. Can't say that I know how he did it, but it sure looks good.
Description of Work: Bob stopped by to look at a drop-leaf table that had belonged to my great-grandmother. We discussed options on refinishing. He took the table and refinished the top, the drop leaves, the legs and the small drawer. He also was able to greatly reduce a crack that was on the top, probably caused by dry-rot. He also was able to remove 2 deep water stains that had been on the table for years.

I called Bob and he was available already the next day for consultation. As he lived nearby, and I could fit the chair in my car, I brought it to his workshop. He gave me an estimate and the job was completed prior to the expected finish date - less than a week. Since I brought and picked up the chair the job was also less expensive.
