"After getting 8 bids, we made the right choice selecting Hollywood Refinishing. Tarwat and his crews were professional, talented, and timely. The cost was reasonable - not the cheapest, but we could see the quality difference. They were still lower than several others, so it was the perfect balance in our opinion - quality for a reasonable price. Our kitchen is gorgeous, and included lots of design input and ideas from the crews."

"I am 100% against doing this but after being blown off for the better part of a year I don’t think he’s ever going to follow through with what he was paid for and people should know. Short and sweet, I contracted to have my cabinets fixed(chipping, crooked hanging and touchup paint). 8 months later he finished 90% of it right before Christmas. He was paid in full and was going to return after the holidays. Haven’t seen him since. First contacted him mid April 2023. Along with 3 other contractors. He went on and on about how the materials they use are so superior and the guy that did the original work did do a good job. He was the most expensive but seamed the most knowledgeable and able to properly fix our issues so we went with him. Final install was done 20th of November leaving screws and wood pieces in every drawer and cabinet he worked in. During the last week of seeing him he was grumpy, constantly saying how bad it was and messed up and just frustrated. Any time anything was brought up he would get visibly frustrated and loudly explain how something wasn’t right. I was quick to see him leave knowing he’d need to return and fix some issues. He never returned to fix the few issues nor did I receive the touchup paint to fix the little scratches that come from having teenagers in the house. I was shocked to see he was still in business as in January 2024 he called me upset that I didn’t understand what was wrong in his life. Moving with a new partner and all of the hassles of apparently closing his business. I had messaged him a few times asking if I could get the touch up paint and if he could fix a few crooked hanging doors. He told me that I didn’t want to buy new hinges to fix the problem which makes absolutely zero sense. Does it make any sense that I’d pay $16,000 for doors and not pay $400 for hinges to make it right? Of course he didn’t bring this up until after the doors were made and he was having issues. I understand that apparently the maker that originally made my cabinets didn’t do a good job and probably used the wrong hinges. This is exactly why I contacted highly reviewed contractors to fix the issues. He seamed very knowledgeable and with tons of experience and reviews which is why I picked him. You know it’s easy to be a good man when it’s easy you see the true character of a man when it’s hard. Update this is huge and I’m sorry. He responded in another review making baseless lies stating that I was mean to him as well as some others regarding hinges. I have video of him well after the doors were ordered asking me lightly if I wanted new hinges. You can clearly hear me say I don’t want new hinges unless I need them. I paid him $16k to fix the all of the issues. Again he was not the cheapest by a long shot and I didn’t haggle. I just wanted the issues fixed. Three of the doors have warped and the paint in the corner of a drawer is coming apart not to mention the crooked doors on my now 55k kitchen cabinets."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Potrero, CA

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.
