"Our business hired Henry to paint a mural on our wall and provide restoration work on some antique furniture. We explained what direction we wanted, he listened and then did an amazing job. Since the painting was completed we have gotten non-stop compliments from customers who stop to admire it when they walk through the front door. He also restored several pieces of furniture to a pristine level: â brand newâ in an antique sense. After he was done, the gouges, chips, and knicks in the surface were visually gone. The tables also seem to be holding up better in general, as they see a lot of wear and tear through constant use. We hired them again later on to epoxy some tables, and paint calligraphy on the wall. We at Open Door Tea couldnâ t be happier with the Henryâ s work on this mural and restoration. I would recommend him to anyone and any business."

"Incredible effort from them. I needed table leaves refinished and they ended up doing the whole table for the price of the leaves so it would match. Would only use them in the future. Awesome work and great communication throughout."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Dover, NJ

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.
