"After several moves with the military to our forever home, we wanted to have our furniture cosmetically touched up, as it had incurred some nicks and scratches, with a few faded areas from heavy use. The kitchen in our new house also had been refinished several years ago, but the previous owners had been rough with the cabinets, leaving some scrapes and scratches. Eric did a fantastic job touching up all our furniture, which looks so much better now that all the scratches are filled and the faded areas blended. The cabinets in our gourmet kitchen look brand new. The cost was very reasonable, all the work was conveniently done in our home, and Eric was extremely knowledgeable and patient with all my questions. Getting an estimate via email with photos and scheduling was easy as well--it's just a great all-around local company worth supporting. Other companies wanted us to bring the furniture to them and had very high quotes just for a few pieces. I'm so happy I found them and my home feels so much more polished now."

"Movers broke the leg off of an arm chair made by my Great, Great Grandfather in Ireland over 100 years ago and has been in my family since. The finish was also pretty badly damaged. Honestly, I was a little skeptical at first because the quoted price seemed too low. Mr. Vegas completed the repairs at the exact price and within the timeframe quoted. I do not say this lightly, I was blown away at the quality of the work performed by Mr. Vegas. The repair and refinishing were seamless and beautiful. I would recommend Vegas Restorations to anyone who needs repairs on family heirlooms or irreplaceable items."

"Outrageous quality and workmanship restoring my 150 year old chaise. Jim is a pleasure to work with. He understood our vision of what we wanted and delivered an exceptional product. More than a woodworker, they are artists. Highly recommended."

"What a fantastic experience. George and Tea are so friendly. Before restoration began, we discussed the entire project and looked the piece over with great care. This piece of furniture is 120 years old and had a lot of loose and damaged parts. Now, the piece is solid and exquisitely restored. I never dreamed this cabinet could look so beautiful and it is a testament to true craftsmanship. Their prices are very fair and their overall professionalism is commendable."

"I bought an Ikea armoire and wanted it to match my bedroom furniture. I was told that it was difficult to make changes particularly painting Ikea furniture. I was pleasantly surprised when Metropolitan restoration Center offered me a reasonable price and more than delivered. Saying I'm pleased is not enough for the results. I have a very nice looking cabinet that matches quite nicely with the rest of my furniture. All of this done at a reasonable price!"

"We had 6 chairs reupholstered and repaired. Some of the chairs were in really bad shape and 3 of the chairs were not even able to be sat in. Mr. Kim did a fantastic job putting the chairs back together and reupholstering them. Now I will have my dining room set for a very long time."

"The whole process from the first visit to get an estimate through the actual project was outstanding. The doors and drawer fronts were perfect, the factory finish is better than any cabinets I saw in cabinet shops. The install team was meticulous and very professional. We are so happy we chose this company and could not be happier with the final product."

"Rene responded to my request for and estimate with a prompt visit, and subsequent reasonable cost estimate.  Rene  listened and provided useful advice to help me make decisions.  Although the estimate and contract was signed in March, we agreed that the work would not begin until June.   Rene was ready on the agreed upon date
Painting: Rene's team arrived on time and ready to work.  Rooms were well prepared and the paint job and moulding installation was top notch.  Rene is a perfectionist and asked his workers to redo a section that to my untrained eye looked fine. They completed the work within the agreed upon time frame. Rene and his team (Jacob & ?) were professional, cordial, and helpful in decision making.
Handyman: Rene and Jacob replaced two closet doors, one of which was not an easy fix.
Julio is an excellent handyman who clearly takes pride in his work.  He did not waste time, and was able to complete the major items on my  "to do"  list in one day.
All in all working with Rene and Renaissace Restoration was the most pleasant experience I have had with a contractor.
I will definitely seek them out again

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Arlington, VA

Refinishing often only costs about half of what you’d spend on a comparable new piece and lets you keep the character you already love. Beyond the quick savings, you’re also cutting waste and avoiding the higher price of quality, brand-new furniture. For most homeowners, it’s a budget-smart and sustainable win.

Refurbishing preserves the original finish—think deep cleaning, tightening joints, and minor repairs — to refresh the piece without altering its appearance. Refinishing is more dramatic: Pros strip the old finish, sand, then add new stain or paint for an entirely new color or sheen. Both approaches improve appearance; the right choice depends on how much change you want.

Furniture that is severely worn, damaged, or made from fragile materials such as plywood, particleboard, or MDF is not suitable for refinishing. Items with significant structural issues or heavy deterioration often fail to achieve a quality finish, even after extra preparation. Select pieces with robust construction to ensure lasting beauty and durability.

Refinishing can affect the value of an antique piece. Serious collectors prize the original finish because it shows a piece’s age and craftsmanship. Stripping that patina can lower market value. If the goal is resale, talk with an appraiser or restoration pro before sanding anything. For heirloom pieces you plan to keep, a careful refinish may still be worth it if it protects the wood and lets you enjoy the furniture every day.

Water-damaged or swollen wood is often repairable. If the swelling is mild and hasn’t warped the structure, a pro can dry the wood, sand it flat, fill any cracks, and seal it before applying the new finish. Severe water damage that has twisted or split the frame is more challenging—and costly—to repair and may necessitate partial replacement. Let a refinishing specialist assess the piece first.

Acrylic paint is a top choice for most wood furniture because it applies smoothly, adheres well to primed surfaces, and cures into a tough, long-lasting finish. When you prep correctly—clean, sand, and prime—you’ll get even color that stands up to daily wear. For outdoor pieces, choose an acrylic formulated for exterior use to add extra UV protection.
