"My wife and I employed Ranch Hands Construction to replace our exterior deck and staircase last year. We were extremely pleased with the job they did and the professionalism of their employees. This Fall, when we were looking for someone to remodel our master bathroom, we gave them a call. Jean Claude did the estimate. He was very helpful with suggestions to improve the functionality of some of our design choices. Their bid was straightforward, complete and unambiguous. We opted to give them the job. Our project was led by Bill Davis. He and his apprentice, Donald, were fantastic. He always kept my wife and I advised when they showed up in the morning, went to lunch and left for the day. They took great care to protect our bedroom during demolition and drywall. The workspace was left clean and organized at the end of each day. Our project was complicated and involved running new drains, plumbing and electrical. Bill took great care in making everything not only look good, but be functional and easy to maintain. When unforeseen issues came up, he promptly informed us, explained the issues and provided solutions. The decision was always ours. I would highly recommend Ranch Hands to anyone. They've done a great job for us. We will definitely use them again on our next project."
"Marco is amazing! He went above and beyond to make our home look amazing. He's a genuine guy and fixed things in my home that he noticed needed repairs. He didn't have to, but he did it out of the generosity of his heart. I would highly recommend Marco and will hire him every time I need a repair!"
"Our remodeled kitchen exceeded all expectations. Leoni’s eye for design brought our ideas to life, creating an open and functional layout perfect for entertaining. The team’s craftsmanship was top-notch, and they respected our home, leaving it clean each day. The project was finished on time and within budget, and our kitchen now feels like a welcoming and sophisticated part of our home. I’d recommend McCormick to anyone wanting a home transformation without stress!"
"Jordan performed multiple jobs for me including hanging a few art pieces, fixing my leaking faucet, and installing grab bars in my mother's shower. All projects turned out perfect. I will be contacting him first in the future!"
It is often worthwhile to refinish or restore furniture, especially for high-quality, older, antique, or sentimental pieces. Older furniture tends to have better durability than modern, mass-produced items, and refinishing can cost about one-third of the price of replacement. To determine if it's cost-effective, compare quotes from local refinishing services with the price of a new, similar piece. Refinishing can refresh a piece's look and extend its lifespan. However, it may not be worth it for newer furniture made of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) or plywood, or for items with major structural damage. A professional can help you assess the piece and decide on the best course of action.
Regularly check and tighten bolts, avoid overloading, and inspect for wear.
Regular cleaning, avoiding moisture exposure, and using appropriate protective products.
To treat sun-damaged furniture, clean the surface thoroughly to remove dirt and debris. Next, assess the damage: Consider refinishing or applying a protective sealant for faded finishes. Apply furniture oil or conditioner to restore moisture to cracked or dry wood. Remember, the best way to treat your furniture is to prevent damage in the first place. Regular maintenance and preventive measures will keep your furniture looking its best. Lastly, it may be best to consult a professional furniture restorer or refinisher for expert repairs and restoration in severe cases.
It is generally worth repairing leather furniture rather than replacing it, as it is typically more affordable and the material tends to retain its value. A typical repair averages around $250, which is significantly less than the thousands of dollars a replacement could cost. Even a full reupholstering, which can cost up to $4,000, may still be more economical than buying new. With proper care, repaired leather furniture can last for many years, making the investment worthwhile. However, if the underlying structure or frame of the furniture is damaged or malfunctioning, replacement might be a better option. The quality of the leather and the furniture piece are also important factors. For a definitive answer, it is best to consult a leather repair professional to assess your specific situation.
