"I had a 74 year old cedar chest refinished. It was my mother's, and I gave it to my daughter. I was so impressed with the way it came out. I was told it would take about 16 weeks to be completed. I was very happy it was done ahead of schedule. It is beautiful and I am so glad that my daughter has this heirloom to remember my mother. I was so glad I contacted Scot to do this project. I will not hesitate to have FINISHsmith do any other furniture refinishing projects that I have."

"Went for consultation on water damaged sofa. Knowledge was shared and opined that the furniture was ok. They repaired a torn zipper on a cushion cover in a flash and did not take money for it. Great people."

"They did a fantastic job!. We had to wait a little bit after they picked up the furniture, but the wait was definitely worth it. Our furniture is about 70 years old and was scratched and chipped, but now looks better than new. They are not inexpensive, but the workmanship is worth every penny. We would use them again."

"<p>I took the lamp to Lynn in early December. She diagnosed that the ballast was no good and she knew that there were likely no more available for this type of lamp, or if one was found the price would not be worth it. So we decided to rewire it conventionally to hold two CFL bulbs. She was quite busy and said it would not be ready before Christmas and would call when it was done. I really didn't need it quickly so the time was not an issue. She called on January 5th and we picked it up. She did a very good job and it's great to have our lamp back. We had other lamps rewired there several years ago.</p> <br />"

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Cleveland, OH

A complete table refinishing project requires between four and eight days from start to finish. The actual hands-on work takes between two and 10 hours, with the remaining time dedicated to drying periods between applications. The stripping and sanding phases demand the most active labor, while applying finishes requires patience as each layer dries completely before proceeding.

Several elements influence dining table refinishing costs, with size being the primary factor. Larger tables or those with extensions require more materials and labor time. The wood type matters significantly—hardwoods may need specialized treatment compared to softer woods. The table's current condition also impacts pricing, as damaged surfaces need repairs before refinishing can begin.

Refinishing often proves more economical than purchasing a comparable quality replacement. Professional table refinishing costs between $150 and $400 on average, while preserving the original craftsmanship and character of your piece. 

This approach makes particular sense for well-constructed wood furniture that would be expensive to replace with similar quality. For sentimental pieces or antiques, refinishing also maintains their history and personal value.

Professional furniture refinishers charge between $40 and $100 per hour for their services. This rate varies based on geographic location, the refinisher's experience level, and the complexity of the project. Some professionals offer project-based pricing rather than hourly rates, especially for standard-sized pieces like coffee tables or end tables. When requesting quotes, ask whether the estimate includes materials or represents labor costs only.

For tables with minor wear, you can sometimes refresh the appearance without complete stripping and sanding. Using gel stains and wipe-on finishes can address surface issues while preserving the existing finish underneath. This approach works best for tables with light cosmetic damage rather than those with deep scratches or damaged finishes. However, proper stripping and sanding remain necessary for comprehensive restoration or significant color changes for professional-quality results.
