Our rosewood buffet (sideboard) has just been returned. We are very pleased with the work done by Harry C. Johnson & Son. The customer service was excellent and we were sent photos of the work in progress to see what was being done. We have no hesitation in recommending them to refinish your better pieces of furniture. Thank you.

A joy to work with. Absolutely first rate craftsmanship, professionally handled. Took some research to find the best furniture repair and upholstery shop in the DC area, but worth it, even though quite a drive from Annapolis. I give them the highest recommendation possible. They did the leather chair seats in the photos. Showed me a complex pattern cane seat they were about to begin, and some amazing finished pieces. Great people. Needed 6 dining room chairs reupholstered, 2 had pieces of trim missing as well. Of course, there is no one else I would have do the work. As expected, the reupholstering was fantasticly done - see yellow cloth seats in photo. In addition, the replacement trim was perfectly matched - both wood type and finish. As a hobbyist woodworker, I can assure anyone reading that matching wood and finish so well is very difficult. So, once again I say, that I give HC Johnson and So n the highest possible recommendation. If anywhere in the greater Washington DC area, these are the furniture reupholstering and repair people to trust.

Owner Response

We had Johnson restore some family heirloom furniture for us. It was not fine or high-quality furniture, but held a lot of special memories for us. Pat and her team did outstanding work with the restorations, going the extra mile for quality and attention to detail. We especially appreciate that they treated the work with all of the same care as if it were fine furniture pieces.

Owner Response

Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Amos. We hope to see you soon for your next restoration . Enjoy your pieces they are Beautiful. Pat.

I am so pleased with the restoration you did on my antique pine and maple side table. What a beautiful finish it has now, and the drawer is much sturdier. I smile every time I see it. Thank you for taking such care. I also greatly appreciate the origin details you shared with me. I'll be sure to come back to you for my next furniture restoration.

Owner Response

Thank you ! We appreciate you taking the time to post your review. Pat.

I brought in an oyster basket that my great, great, great grandfather had made (he was in the basket business). It had holes in it, and Harry Johnson's craftspeople did an amazing job with the repair. I cannot even tell where it was patched. I had to drive an hour to the shop and an hour back, and I would do it all over again! Thank you for restoring my family heirloom!

Owner Response

Thank you for taking the time to share this review,it was an honor working on your family's heirloom.

Johnson & Son have repaired a number of pieces of furniture over the last several years, most recently recaning a bench whose back suffered a large hole due to grandchildren. They have previously repaired a chair whose bamboo arm was chewed by our son's dog. The new arm and rattan wrapping appeared original. They have reglued any number of our old chairs (neither children nor grandchildren to blame), all of which continue to get regular use and have remained stable for years afterwards. We have never had cause to be disappointed.

Owner Response

Thank you Mr.Green. It is always a pleasure to see you coming back year after year.

I sent them a mahogany knee-hole desk from my grandmother’s house that was in serious disrepair with water and other damage that I thought was unrepairable. I got back a museum piece that will last another century or more. Now this is how to recycle. Great place, these people are artists!

Owner Response

Dear Ms.Demko, thank you for your review,yes your desk was indeed the kind of challenge we work on routinely and we take the time to make sure that the end result is top notch and long lasting. It was a pleasure. Thank you again.

Harry & Son refinished two pieces for us. Their work is impeccable! The highboy that I sent them was in pieces and looks beautiful now! The hall tree is a show piece - thanks to them. I highly recommend their work. They took their time to do it right. These pieces will be loved by our family for another 100 years!

Owner Response

Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a nice review and for posting photos too. We also thank you for trusting your family pieces to us,and we look forward to your next project. Pat. T

This furniture repair business did an excellent job refinishing our natural wood dining table top. They made the table surface much better than original by applying a polyurethane coating, as per request.
