Timby’s Dipstrip Furniture Stripping

On time at a reasonable price at attention to detail.

Great. The table was ready for pickup in less than two weeks, ready to be sanded.

It went very well. The door was finished earlier than the date promised and was clear of over 80 years worth of paint.
The fir door was left in excellent shape, plus they gave me advice on what products to use on it.

Tim and Debby did great work and were a pleasure to work with. Tim answered all of my questions via phone prior to drop-off, and again in person. No bait-and-switch in terms of services or pricing. My items were done before promised, and Tim was great in giving me advice in what prep work I needed to do on my end prior to repainting and restaining my pieces.

Timby's did a nice job of removing the majority of the paint from all the pieces we brought them. They also stripped the paint from the hardware and removed the locks and cleaned them up too for a small additional charge. There was very little paint left in the crevices and the pieces were really close to being stain-ready when we got them back. There was one broken pane on a window, which they replaced. And most of the glazing on the windows needs to be replaced, but we were warned about this up front and we chose to go ahead and have them stripped. We are very satisfied with our experience working with Timby's and recommend them to others.

Debby and Tim dipped the two old doors, removing the knobs, hinges,etc. and cleaning them separately. Tim even found skeleton keys that matched the locks in our doors, which he sold to us for next to nothing! All we had to do was re-assemble the doors and re-hang them (which our contractor did, in this case). The following month, they stripped our old heater vent, which had been painted over through the years. Tim even recommended a particular antiquing kit which I could buy at Lowe’s to finish it myself. You can tell Tim and Debby enjoy their work, which is a second career and seems to be a labor of love. My main contact was Tim, who knows a lot about antiques and miscellaneous procedures. He is a great resource! I cannot recommend this company enough! They provide great service at low prices, and are personable and easy to work with!
