Rusty is pleasant and professional. He knows his business and is willing to fix anything that wasn't done perfectly. I would recommend him for your furniture refinishing.
Walker Furniture did a number of projects for me and in every respect they exceeded expectations. Rusty gave me practical advice and reasonable estimates, not pushing for a lot of fussy stuff that wasn?t needed but recommending an approach appropriate to the piece. You don't need to get a lot of bids and compare, you can trust Rusty to do right by you. He repaired one my grandmother?s piano seat for only $75.00?just fixed it and buffed it up a little. The only pricy item was a refurbishing of my Great Aunt Claire?s claw-foot table that was rough looking when I got it in 1975, and had been sitting in my basement so long that one of the claw feet had rotted. Rusty replaced the foot and refurbished it so that it looks as good as new. They picked them up and dropped them off when done, they handled everything carefully and professionally.
But the most AWESOME thing he did for me is rescue one of my own failed projects. A few years ago when we had some trees removed I had the brilliant idea to make a table for my family room from cross-cuts of the tree. After slipping the tree crew a few extra bucks to take some slices, I was stuck on what to do next. Randy turned my slab into a truly creative piece that fits beautifully in my great room. THANKS Rusty!
Initially I was very skeptical. I sent pictures of the chairs to Rusty and explained what I would like to have done and would he provide me with a cost estimate.
In a very short time he got back with an estimate that caused the skepticism. Reason being I had an estimate from another vendor and his price was twice as much. But because of the Angies List testimonies, I decided to go with Walker Furniture Sevices.
The experience was great, he made an appoint to pick up chairs and material (I provided for covering seats), they arrived on time picked up chairs as promised. Now mind you, Walker Furniture is in Westminister MD, Im in Washington DC. Some weeks later I touched base with Rusty to get an idea of when they might be ready. He informed me that they were just about done and he would be in touch. A week later he called to say they were ready for delivery. We settled on a date and time.
Rusty's guys called to say they would be a little early and if that was OK, of course it was and they brought the chairs.
Now all of that skepticism was washed away, the chairs look fantastic!! The black finish, the upholstery, looked so good I could hardly believe they were the same chairs. He also, as I requested, beefed up the cushining in the seat and they sit perfectly.
If I or anyone I know, needs furniture work Rusty Walker will be the first thing out of my mouth.
This was all accomplished with emails and pictures and I have yet to meet this wonderful person.
This was my first experience using a Angies List provider and boy what a great one!!
