This company has been restoring my 1880 wood panel doors for several years, in a restoration project on an old 1870 farmhouse. They are super professional, thorough, friendly and I've never had any issues with damage or with chemical stains that could not be sanded down. The best place to go for furniture/material stripping anywhere.
We're so happy you're pleased with our work. We have a great crew, they all take pride in sharing their expertise.

I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to have any furniture refurbished or restored. I had an antique dresser that was handed down to me and when the PODs movers shipped, they destroyed it. These before and after pictures are amazing
We're so glad you were happy with the outcome.

So glad we brought our doors here, I can’t stop looking at them! Our doors are solid wood from the 1880s but saw some very poor paint jobs in their lifetime and I knew I needed help if I was to tackle all of the projects in our renovation. Found this place via google and so glad I did. They staff is very helpful and our doors came out amazing! Hopefully restoring them will mean they can be admired for another 100 years
We're so glad to have been able to help you with your restoration!

Nice folks , they do great work at reasonable prices. I removed virtually all the painted wood from my 100 year old house and had then dip strip it to help me bring it all back to bare wood for staining and polyurethane. They saved me hundreds, if not thousands of labor hours worth of time. I Also used them to strip my original windows to get them restored and back to good function and appearance. As a former professional painter and woodwork restorer myself I am picky about the quality of service I get. These folks are about the best around , hands down.
Thanks for the review. It's dirty work, we understand not wanting to do it yourself. Our crew works hard, we'll pass on your appreciation.

Great quality work fixing having heirloom furniture. Prices are high but that's what you pay for quality work.

I am so happy with my whole experience with these guys. I had four extremely wobbly old pub chairs that were in desperate need of repair. I called and described what needed to be done. They quoted me over the phone and said I could bring them in that day if I wanted. It was a week before Easter and I was hoping to have them in time for Easter but knew I probably didn’t leave them enough time. I did mention that it would be great if they could make that happen and they did! They are as sturdy as if they were new now and the price was very fair! I would highly recommend! A bunch of very nice guys doing awesome work restoring history!
We're so glad you're happy!

These guys were great. They stripped over 75 spindles for us and two columns. The came out clean, were super professional, and did exactly what they said they would.

Refurbished old cabinets in the kitchen and made them pop. Kitchen looked like major remodeling was done. The team is clean neat and courteous too. They also refurbished a 50 year old dining room set with hutch. Came out better than new. I wish I had photos to share.
We're so happy you're enjoying your new kitchen and DR set!
