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

Yes, refinishing can decrease or even diminish the value of antique furniture, as most collectors look for original finishes to maintain the piece’s historical integrity. Learning how to clean antique wood and carefully restore the finish without stripping it is the best way to maintain the piece’s original value. Either way, it’s best to take it to a professional furniture refinishing and restoration expert rather than attempting a DIY restoration.

The cost to refinish a dresser ranges from $300 to $2,000 on average, depending on the dresser’s size, material, and detail. If you need to repair the dresser before refinishing it, you can expect that service to cost extra. While it’s possible to restore and refinish antique furniture yourself, we recommend hiring a professional furniture refinisher to maintain the integrity of vintage and heirloom pieces. That way, you have the peace of mind of knowing that your dresser will receive professional-grade restoration.

The cost to refinish furniture varies significantly depending on the type of furniture, its material, and its age, but the average cost is about $600 per piece. For larger pieces or antique pieces that require greater care, you could pay up to around $1,000 per piece for refinishing. Small pieces of furniture like bar stools or dining chairs usually cost between $100 and $400 each. Your refinishing professional might charge by the hour rather than by piece, in which case you would expect to spend $40 to $100 per hour of work required.

Telling the difference between high-quality wood furniture and lower-quality pieces is challenging, but there are a few sign that indicate whether your furniture is worth repairing:

  • Push your fingernail into an inconspicuous section of the wood. If it doesn’t leave a dent, it’s likely hardwood and is well worth a repair.

  • Unzip the bottom of couches to look for the structural components. If they’re made of wood rather than particle board, it’s likely worth refinishing.

  • Ask a local furniture repair technician. A reputable professional will let you know if you’re better off replacing rather than refinishing your specific item.

You should consider the time needed to clean and prepare your bedroom set for transit. A few days before moving, vacuum, dust, and clean your furniture with a mild cleaning solution. Depending on the movers and the services you pick, you might need to pre-pack the mattress and box spring in boxes designed for beds and disassemble some furniture by removing doors and hardware. Finally, don’t forget to take plenty of pictures documenting the pre-move condition in case you need to file a claim.
