Restorers Without Borders

Restorers Without Borders exceeded my expectations in their restoration of my late 1800’s antique mahogany men’s dresser. The service provided - in-home consultation, pick-up for delivery to their workshop, collaboration on the best stain, photos during the process, to home delivery - was exceptional. Ideally, I’ll have an opportunity to work with them again.

From beginning to end it has been a five star experience. Restorers discussed the options of work and what they would cost. We had a hard deadline for a large family celebration, which they met just as promised. The ten bentwood chairs and the old, highly damaged oak table came out astonishingly. well. So beautifully done and with such care. All the people I dealt with communicated their deep knowledge of of the work and their love of what they do. Their pride in their work is obvious. restorers is a rarity.

Followed instructions on their website, emailed pics and work needed and never heard back. Likewise follow up emails/calls were ignored.

From the time i walked into there shop and talk to Mauty and Alfonso I knew I had found the right place to leave my treasured furniture.They completely understood what I wanted. I then talked to Jeff it is very important to him we are all on the same page clearly. Jeff is the owner. I was absolutely thrilled with the results I would but not sure how to do that. If you make N appointment and see what they are doing you won't need a picture of mine.

Perfect. Excellent service and absolutely topnotch craftsmanship. Not inexpensive but worth every penny.

A piece of my childhood “Heather Hill Farm” in East Otis MA has been beautifully and carefully restored. Having missed my family’s farm in the Berkshires over the past 2 decades, I delighted when Restorers without borders finally agreed, after initially thinking it to be too much of a wreck, to bring back my dream of this Victorian-sleigh, and restore the sleigh to its new and Improved artistic state. Won’t my grand daughters be delighted, not to mention my family who thought it aught to be kissed goodbye. Well, it went great…Better than expected and I and my family will treasure this piece of our history for all of our days. Heart felt thank you to Mauty and Alphonse and all the team at Restorers Without Borders. You are the best! Sincerely, Janet Nagy Hanley

The Art Deco set was in very bad shape (needed repair, refinishing and upholstering) AND holds a great deal of sentimental value. A very high demand that was met with the most incredible attention to detail, magnificent skill, outstanding customer service and much needed and appreciated humor. My husband Scott and I would highly recommend Jeff and the team (Afonso, Wren, Mauty and others). You will not be disappointed. You will receive the utmost quality and service. And you will be treated like family. Afonso and the team took so much pride in their work they were actually emotional on delivery day. They so wanted us to be happy with the final results. We could not be happier! Gina and Scotty

Amazing! The piece we had was a mess; a hand-me-down we had got for free. The team at Restorers Without Borders fixed it, stripped it, cleaned up the hardware and did the most amazing high-gloss paint job. It looks fantastic. We couldn't be happier.

Restorers Without Borders are artists and they paid attention to every detail -- from helping choose the stain, fixing the latches for the table leaf, and making a table that has been in our family for years look better than any of us could have imagined! Thank you for your incredible work!

The team at Restorers Without Borders was superb in their artistry, craftsmanship, knowledge, communication, trustworthiness, and all-around professionalism. We are absolutely delighted with the quality of their work and give our highest recommendation for this business.

We were very happy with the service from start to finish. Detailed proposal, pick up/delivery, meticulous work. After years of sun damage, indoor heat, daily wear our lovely Biedermeier table had lost its luster. Three of the six chairs were unusable or unsafe. RWB brought our beautiful set back to life. We are so grateful!

I presented Restorers Without Borders with a challenging project. The living room set was 50 years old and it required an expert to repair. My initial contact was with Jeff, via email, and he responded quickly and patiently as we went back and forth many times with photos and information. We arranged a home visit and he arrived with Alfonzo to further evaluate the project. The proposed work was carefully explained to me, an estimate was provided, and they transported the furniture to their shop. The completed project was delivered before the given date by Jeff, Alfonzo and Roberto - the entire team. This is indeed an expert team. The repair work is flawless and the upholstery is elegantly done. The set actually looks better than when new!

Top notch experience all around. High profesional quality of work, beautiful woodwork and staining, sound advice, reasonable price, on time. Jeff and his people were responsive and a pleasure to interact with. In addition, the stain expert Paul offered generous and helpful advice and tutorial on my side DIY project. Highly recommended shop. You guys rock!

The work is top notch and Jeff and his crew are wonderful to work with. Communication is great and they had my pieces done earlier than promised! Restorers Without Borders take pride in their craft, true professionals from beginning to end. I highly recommend this business!

Take it from a happy repeat customer: do not hesitate to leave your valued antiques -- or newer pieces -- with Restorers Without Borders. They do first-rate work.

Can't complain with the results. Took a couple of older beaten up pieces and really made them shine again. They are also excellent with the customer service and the furniture moving itself.

Fantastic. Great work and wonderful service. Highly recommend. Thank You.

Excellent work, beautifully repaired a cherished dining table! Very polite and timely!

This summer I had a French Curio Cabinet restored along with a gold leaf guilted frame. The workmanship on these items is amazing. I appreciated how they were preserved as antiques and brought back to life. Restorers Without Borders crew moved the glass cabinet from Wellesley to their shop and then delivered it to me in Maine. I highly recommend this company.

I am so happy I found these guys. My beautiful walnut, mid-century bureau is reborn! Gorgeous work. From the moment I contacted RWB, they were responsive, friendly, VERY professional, on time (not just for the appointments and delivery but for the entire project!) These guys really love what they do. No snobbery, no upselling, just expert craftsmen who love bringing old pieces back to life. HIGHLY recommend them. I'll never use anyone else.

We had two pieces of furniture refinished. They did a fantastic job incredible attention to detail. One of the pieces had been in my wife’s family for over a hundred years now it will be with us for 100 more!!!!

Restorers Without Borders did beautiful, high quality work on our dining table and chairs. A fresh finish and new upholstery makes such a difference! I would recommend this premium service for special pieces of furniture that are worth an investment in quality craftsmanship.

Fantastic! The team at RWB is excellent! They promptly called me back when I submitted an email inquiry initially, kept me updated on progress, and met my deadline due to moving out of state. They also helped me with delivery to my new home. The piece is beautiful and I can’t thank them enough!

Restorers without Borders has been my go-to shop in the Boston area for all my furniture restoration needs. For several years, they’ve been restoring my family’s antiques: including a Victorian era upholstered and mahogany chair, a 1950s wood card table and leaf, antique Japanese nesting side tables I found on the sidewalk. And the latest item was my grandmother’s dresser and mirror that was no kinder attached. They built a new frame for the mirror to attach to the dresser. The results are absolutely beautiful! The team really understands the inherent beauty of furniture. Their masterful work truly restores - brings back to life - these loved pieces so they have a second life. I am so grateful to have found Afonso, Jeff, Paul, and everyone at the workshop. I can’t recommend them enough!!

I am so pleased with the work done to restore my antique French gold curio cabinet and Windsor chair. Both pieces had significant damage with injury to structure and finish as a result of time and use. To see them brought back to their original beauty and function is thrilling. I have trusted Jeff, Alphonso, and staff at Restorers Without Borders with my family treasures for years and each time they amaze me. Thank you!
