Dave Donahue is phenomenal. If you live in the North Shore or close, his expert repair ability makes you smile and feel satified. It was a joy to have him in our home while he completed repairs. I'm totally satisfied and would ask his help again.

Fabulously well. He found where the internal mechanism was bent so that parts were rubbing against each other, and straightened them back into shape. He also lubricatated all the moving parts. Would absolutely employ his services again.

Dave was great. He took a really nice, but quite old BarcaLounger that was no longer reclining, took it apart and reassembled it using a new wooden internal brace, and it now works great. Dave is a true craftsman with high standards. Feel very fortunate to have found him!

Dave is an exceptional, experienced pro; I will absolutely hire his services again in the future. He reached out and set up an appointment very quickly after assessing the repair, arrived on time, was professional and personable, and performed the repair quickly, neatly, and (very) affordably. Dave is the ideal pro for furniture repair - you can trust him absolutely to do a stellar job and offer detailed, frank advice to keep your furniture in top shape.

Amazing!! Dave was quick to respond initially. Once we hired him, he kept in contact throughout the process. He was very professional and went above and beyond what we expected. The furniture looks brand new. We are 100% satisfied and would highly recommend him to others. Thank you Dave for taking such good care of our antique furniture that was a wedding gift to our parents.
