They arrived right on time on the day of the appointment. All was well until the original guy that came out to the house told me that he didn't want to try to move my china cabinet. (It is of average weight for a traditional china cabinet.) He said he didn't notice it before, which was interesting because he had asked me to empty it. There are only two pieces of furniture in the dining room, so I'm assuming he forgot about the china cabinet. He wanted to leave the cabinet in place without refinishing under it. I expressed concern about the floor looking different where it wasn't refinished. Then he said the floor might get scratched if he moved it and asked me if I would be OK with that. I said "no" to that. He asked if I was ever going to move it, and pointed out that the floor couldn't be seen under the cabinet. I explained that the furniture might be moved, and that the contract indicated the entire entire floor was to be refinished. He left, explaining that the rest of the floor needed to cure before moving the cabinet, but promised that he would come back out to refinish under the cabinet "for free", but didn't seem to want to schedule a time to come back. I was supposed to call him later to ask for this last bit of the job to be done. Before he left, I suggested that the lambswool sliders that he had borrowed from me to slide my heavy couch across the floor could also be used to move the cabinet. Later that day, I noticed thin shiny streaks throughout the entire floor. The floor looked like it had scratches. The owner came back out to see it himself, was very nice, and sent the same two workers back out to do a second coat. The floor looked nice when they left, BUT THEY LEFT AGAIN WITHOUT REFINISHING UNDER THE CABINET, saying they would have to come back because they didn't have something they needed to do the job. IDK Not understanding when they were going to finish the job or why they didn't finish the job on the second visit, I decided to ask the owner directly. I texted the owner's phone and asked when they could come back out to finish the job. 9 days later, there was still no response. I texted again and asked for a reply. This is the response I received from the owner's phone. It is an exact quote with no missing words: "My guys are coming out next Wednesday. I cannot just spend gas time, and labor making multiple trips out, so this will be the last time. Please understand if my guys cannot move the cabinet safely, then you will have to hire professional movers." I texted back and asked if the owner really typed that response. I haven't gotten a reply as of today and it has been almost 3 weeks, so that is why I am writing this review. By the way, I moved the china cabinet myself using the sliders I had suggested they try. It took me about 5 minutes and didn't harm the floor. They finally came back and refinished under the cabinet as promised in our contract. The floors look nice, but it was a major hassle working with this company.

This is exactly why this review is rated highly. We had a couple of items in the cabinetry genre that needed attention. We informed him of our thoughts that we may put our home on the market and that we didn't want to go overboard on repairs and refinishes. After we showed him item 1, he indicated a particular repair process that we could cheaply and sufficiently perform on our own! (He even told us the method, the names of the product and where to go to buy and get further guidance.) Item number two was a huge money making opportunity for him. Refinishing a good amount of cabinetry. However, he assured us that it wasn't in horrible shape, and again gave us details as to how to fix our wood products. Item number 3 was wallpaper removal, wall painting and trim/door painting. He informed us that he is no longer in that business. So, in reality, we did not contract him for anything or pay him for anything. But he DID provide service to us. This is why I checked the yes box regarding services performed. We have not contracted him to perform any work, because he convinced us it wasn't necessary. Whaaaaat? Brad was truly professional and gracious. I immediately forgot the name of the products after he left and called him on the phone. He answered the question again for me. Then...two days later, he followed up with an email to see if we had tried the repairs, yet. What wonderful customer service. When I need something done in the cabinetry or wood furniture refinishing areas, I am calling Brad at The Finishers!!! I think you'd be pleased with the high level of customer service that Brad supplies.

I do mobile repairs and the cost of interior parts has gone thru the roof and fixing the existing parts can make a lot of sense. I started repairing auto upholstery in DFW over 35 years ago. I know what works and what doesn't work. If you go to my website FixMyLeather.com, you'll find good advice as to when repair and maintenance will work to your advantage. Check out the before and after pictures.
"They were prompt, kind, and courteous throughout the entire process. Extremely knowledgeable and worked with my schedule. Not one issue and the outcome was excellent. I would highly recommend them to friends and family. You can check google and yelp for other references too!"

FAQs for furniture refinishing projects in Forest Hill, TX
The cost to refinish wood furniture ranges widely, depending on the size and type of furniture. Here’s what you can expect to pay to refinish the following wood furniture items:
Yes, you can refinish a table top only. This refinishing task is a common practice to revitalize a table without having to invest the time and expense of refinishing the entire piece, especially the bottom of the table. If the bottom half of the table is fine as-is, you can still refinish the top of the table to your liking.
Furniture restoration involves cleaning and minor cosmetic repairs to restore a piece of furniture to its original condition or as close to it as possible. In some cases, restoration may involve refinishing, but the end goal is still to make the furniture look like it did when it was brand-new. Refinishing furniture involves stripping and sanding away the existing finish and then applying a new finish like polyurethane, which may make the item look quite different from the original condition.
The cost to refinish a table is about $250, depending on the size, type of finish, and amount of detail involved in the table and the new finish. The lowest price to refinish a table is about $80, and the highest is about $700. Additional tasks like dipping, stripping, staining, and painting will add to the total project cost.
Here are average costs to refinish a table by type:
Side or end table: $80–$150
Coffee table: $150–$250
Dining room table: $400–$700
The cost to refinish a dresser ranges from $300 to $2,000 on average, depending on the dresser’s size, material, and detail. If you need to repair the dresser before refinishing it, you can expect that service to cost extra. While it’s possible to restore and refinish antique furniture yourself, we recommend hiring a professional furniture refinisher to maintain the integrity of vintage and heirloom pieces. That way, you have the peace of mind of knowing that your dresser will receive professional-grade restoration.
