Absolutely love these guys. Took one of a set of 8 chairs that had elaborate wood lattice back, was broken in 2 spots, and they repaired it so well I cant tell which one it is now that its back at our house. He also gave a nice "tour" of their facility to my 10YO son who was fascinated by their operation. Sure it might be considered a little pricey, but as mom always said, "you get what you pay for".

Art at Dan the Furniture Repair Man did a great job fixing our dining chairs. They are decades-old black lacquer chairs with hand-painted gold Chinese scenes. They had become wobbly at the joints & were missing some stabilizing screws. Art meticulously dismantled, cleaned the joints, re-glued & repaired them. We’re thrilled to have them sturdy & safe again! Thanks Art!!

Arthur took my recently made recliner rocker with good bones that needed an upgrade and Jorge did a beautiful job with fabric I supplied! He did everything I asked and even made arm and head covers that look great.I look forward to other reupholstery pieces by this talented team in the future. Thank you Arthur and Jorge.

I was in a bind when my in-laws decided they wanted to throw away a family heirloom they considered trash. My husband wanted to rescue this beautiful piece of furniture, but it needed refurbishing. I didn’t know who to turn to and started making a bunch of phone calls. Someone at Parker Upholstery kindly directed me to Dan the Furniture Man. I rang him up, he responded right away and requested that I send him photos. He then immediately arranged for a moving team to pick-up the bar from my in-laws the following week. Dan literally helped me save this precious piece of furniture in the nick of time. He communicated to me that they had quite a few projects ahead of mine and that it would be a few months before they could work on it. I was more than okay with this because honestly, perfection simply cannot be rushed and well, he did me more than a solid by agreeing to store the bar in his shop while it waited to be refurbished. He later informed me that his son, Arthur, would be taking on the task of refurbishing it. I later received a phone call from Arthur and he told me his thoughts on how he would proceed with the project. I was more than thrilled that work would commence soon. The day of the delivery, Arthur and his assistant, personally delivered the bar to my house. They flawlessly moved it up my stairway without hitting any walls and then proceeded to assemble it. The work they did is Simply Amazing. My husband and I are completely enamored with the work that Arthur did on this beautiful antique bar! It is just absolutely Gorgeous! I have every confidence in this family company and their woodworking talents. So much so that the day they delivered my bar, I asked them if they could refurbish my Grandmother’s cedar chest and my Great Grandmother’s rocking chair. Again, anyone reading this, please understand that the process of refurbishing antique furniture is not something that can be rushed. We may live in a world with expectations of immediate gratification, but it needs to be understood that this type of work requires time and patience. Dan and Arthur know what their doing, their work is phenomenal and thus, they should not be pressured or rushed. I would definitely recommend Dan the Furniture Man and his son, Arthur, to anyone looking to get their precious wooden antiques refurbished. I have an immense sense of gratitude and owe them a tremendous thanks for everything they did to help me with my bar because, well, without them, this piece was destined for a landfill. And I cannot wait to see the other pieces of furniture they are currently refurbishing as well.
