"David Leech is a top quality craftsman! He fully repaired and restored my grandparents’ antique oak draw leaf dining table and chairs. He even crafted a new mechanism to enable the leaves to smoothly extend and retract. The staining, clear coat and beautiful beeswax polish is exquisite. This furniture has a particularly meaningful place in my family’s heart, given it’s honored place at our little summer cottage on Lake Erie. So many loving memories now amplified by this beautiful workmanship. Thank you so much, David!"

"Steven is a highly-skilled craftsman. However, he is a one-man operation. He may be a general contractor but he makes very little use of subcontractors. That means it takes a long time to get a job started and a long time to get it completed. When we signed a contract at the first of October 2016, we indicated that we needed the work finished by mid-November. He was very honest and said he could not complete the work by then, that was more like the time he could start the work. That was okay with us. When we checked with him mid-November he indicated it would be more like December before he could start. December and January came and went. We gave up all hope of having the work done by him and started getting estimates from contractors again. About that time he was ready to start. So, on February 2, 2017 work began. The quality of the work he did when he finally got to work was very high. The walls, cabinetry, lighting, tub and tile were installed beautifully. The woodwork and trim is lovely and he pays extreme attention to detail. The plumbing was a challenge, but he made it happen. When things go wrong (and on any large project they will go wrong) he was quick to take care of it. A plumbing leak in the upstairs construction caused a problem with our ceiling downstairs. He fixed it immediately and you can't tell where the accident happened. The ceiling finish is flawless. Right after he finished in May, we discovered all the plumbing was backwards (hot and cold). He assured us it was a quick fix, but it was July until he managed to get it fixed. He works hard, but he is only 1 person. So everything takes much longer than it should. At the end of the day, the real question is "would you hire this person again or recommend them to a friend." My answer would be if you don't need the work done quickly or you don't care when it is done then hire this contractor. He does very good work and he fixes his mistakes. You aren't going to find higher quality. However, if it is important that work be completed within a set time-frame, you need work urgently done, or you care about how long a job takes then I would select someone else."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Columbus, 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.
