Description of Work: Kitchen chair set reupholstering.Good overall job but I thought the price was a little high but I made allowances for the tax burden in MA and that the current administration in Washington is trying to destroy small businesses.

Description of Work: My couch was busted, support beams were broken, it sagged really badly. Wood was replaced and reinforced, and now the couch is good as new. I got a timely response to my initial call, the service was performed within a few days, and the price was reasonable. Highly recommended.

Dave came to my home three times. He came on time and gave me estimates. His price is not the best but reasonable. I paid as what we agreed no extra charge. He was very friendly, explained in detail about how he is going to fix the panels. He did a good job matching the color of other cabnit doors so I can't tell the difference which one was repainted which one was not. He was also responsive to my emails. I am happy about his service and would recommend to other people for his service. Thank you Dave! and thank you for your advice on cats! Minhui(Maggie)

Dave responded promptly to my inquiry to repair and refinish a hutch, dining room table and bureaus. He came to our home at no charge, offered sensible advice and demonstrated strong expertise. Appreciate his honesty and prioritizing what would give us the most value. This included him advising not to repair a leather chair due to it being too damaged. He was clear in what was and wasn't possible so we wouldn't be disappointed. As in other reviews he was wonderful with our pets too. While the work is not yet done, we look forward to him doing so soon. Based on our initial meeting I'd definitely recommend him to my friends. UPDATE, April, 2014, Dave completed all work with high quality. Exceeded expectations for the refurbished pieces. Discussed progress as he completed, sending pictures. Didn't charge for pick up and delivery, and worked around our schedules. Incredibly accommodating in addition to his professionalism and skill. A lot of value for the cost quoted, and he didn't ask for anything more even though one of the pieces was far more work than initially estimated. Highly recommend! Best vendor we have sourced from Angie's list! Will be refinishing more furniture with him. UPDATE, April, 2014, Dave completed all work with high quality.

I called Dave and left a message, which he promptly returned. We scheduled an appointment for him to look at my loveseat, which, after 25 years of extensive use, has been sagging. My goal was to extend its life a little longer, without investing a lot of money. Dave opened up the underside and saw areas where additional foam padding could be added to provide more support. He also advised how I could inexpensively do more on my own. He added the padding and cleaned up. I loved that the work took only about an hour, and it was done in my home. Convenient, quick, and inexpensive. Dave was prompt, professional, and very pleasant. He was also patient with my two dogs.

Dave refinished our dining room table, full size bed with draws, coffee table, and end tables. end tables were water damaged. Dave did a great job, has a great work ethic, delivers what he says he is going to deliver. Prices are reasonable, actually, I think he should charge more tor the great work he does. We are very happy with our furniture.

My dining room table would bow when the leaves were put in. I called Dave and he suggested that I email a picture of the problem. He determined that the extension slides were failing. I found a store that sells replacements and he looked at the website and told me how to measure to select which set to buy. As soon as I emailed that I had the part, Dave responded and offered to come the next day. He arrived on time and was friendly and efficient. My table is fixed! Much cheaper than buying a new dining room table, and the table manufacturer is out of business so I would have had a mismatched set. Great service!

I called Dave and described the damage to my dinning room table, he came to my home took pictures of the damage and notes on the company that made it and the model numbers. researched it and found that the company was out of business so a replacement part could not be ordered. He made a replacement part and repaired the damage, The table looks like new and you could not tell it had been repaired, the bill was only $100 and I saved myself the cost of a new dinning room table.
Description of Work: Dave repaired my $2,000 dinning room table which was damaged when my son jumped on it. It was out of warranty and the company that made it went out of business. Dave fabricated a replacement part and the repair is undetectable, my table looks brand new and the cost was exceptionally affordable. I would recommend him to anyone.
