I'm excited to introduce my skilled services within our wonderful community. Originally hailing from Glasgow, Scotland, I've had the pleasure of calling Oakland my home for the past 18 years. My craftsmanship journey has been a tapestry of experiences, starting in 2006 with building and designing hardwood furniture for the Cottage table company. Between 2014 and 2016, I immersed myself in the fascinating world of refinishing under the expert tutelage of Jameson at Grit Wood Finishing SF, gaining invaluable insights into the art of restoration. From 2016 to 2020, I had the privilege of working on designing, building, and installing one-of-a-kind art pieces for offices and events. My clientele included esteemed names such as Airbnb, Slack, Pinterest, Meta, Etsy and Uber. More recently, I completed an apprenticeship in high-end cabinet making from AC Woodworks, refining my skills and deepening my commitment to quality craftsmanship. Whether you're in search of bespoke hardwood furniture, expert refinishing services, assistance with Art hanging or just need an expert hand with furniture assembly, repair or a myriad of other handyman tasks I'm here to bring your visions to life. Don't hesitate to reach out, and let's collaborate on something truly special together. I'm looking forward to connecting with you and contributing a touch of artistry to our neighbourhood!

Furniture Refinishing questions, answered by experts

It takes the average person four to eight days to refinish a table. This sounds long, but the work time is only two to 10 hours. If you have prior experience, each step, including dipping, stripping, sanding, staining, painting, and sealing, can take just 30 minutes to complete. The wait time between each step results in a longer total time.

In some cases, a simple clean, polish, and wax can make antique wood furniture look brand-new. However, always be sure to check the type and state of the current finish. Some furniture will require professional care, a new coat of finish, or even a new layer of stain to look like new.

Yes, there are several wood filler products on the market that look like wood. Your best bet is to take a cabinet door to your local hardware store to match the appropriate wood filler to your door. Some brands make filler that is masked to look like wood and can also be sanded, cut, stained, and painted. 

Avoid using wood filler for structural repairs or areas with extensive damage. Wood filler is designed for cosmetic fixes like filling small holes, cracks, or surface imperfections, and it doesn't provide the strength needed for load-bearing repairs or large gaps. You also shouldn’t use wood filler in areas exposed to heavy moisture or extreme outdoor conditions unless it’s a product specifically rated for such environments. Wood replacement or a strong epoxy resin is a better solution for severe rot or structural damage.

For small, simple pieces that aren’t antiques, a professional furniture refinisher can usually refinish a piece in two to three hours, while larger pieces—like bed frames and full dining sets—could take several days. Your refinishing professional should be able to give you an estimated timeline for the work before getting started so that you can plan to be without your furniture during the process. Antique furniture might require additional time and take a week or more to refinish, as they require special care to avoid damage.
