"I have to give a shout out to finish pros and Dan McKenzie and his team… I had a piece of furniture from the 1800s that was very sentimental to me as it was given to me after my godmother passed away. They restored the piece of furniture that was worn and faded back to its original look. It looks brand new! I could not be more happy with the outcome. Not to mention, Their service is top-notch. if you are looking for a company to restore your piece of furniture, give them a try. They are an A+ company with reasonable prices. I highly recommend them!!!! Thanks Finish Pro’s!!!!"

"I hired them to refinish a Drexel heritage bedside table that had water damage. Mike came and picked up the piece and the work was done in five days and returned. The charge was very fair too. Thank you Mike "

"Jeffrey from ICA turned our outdated fireplace into a gorgeous focal point. His expertise and attention to detail is represented in the quality of his work. He built a custom mantle and surround exactly to our specifications?actually, better than we had imagined! He also handled our kitchen and bath cabinet installation with incredible precision. Professional, artistic, and detail-oriented. We couldn't be happier with the results, and we highly recommend his work."

"We are extremely pleased with our refaced and upgraded kitchen cabinets. Working with the Cabinet Cures team was a pleasure. We met with Jeff, the designer, and Andy, the owner, at the Raleigh showroom to choose the new wood, design, and finish. They guided our decisions with patience and no pressure. Jeff then came to our home and spent several hours helping us specify the details of the changes. We converted most all the lower cabinets to drawers and added a small pantry cabinet, keeping all the existing cabinet frames intact. Jeff then returned with Melvin, the job foreman, to take detailed measurements. Both gentlemen had good suggestions, attention to detail, and were able to accommodate our issues with sizes and spacing. Jeff was able to have custom moldings made for us since we didn’t care for any of the stock designs. Scheduling and duration of the job was precise and occurred as planned. The crew of 5 were prompt, courteous and seemed to really enjoy working together. We stayed involved the 7 days they worked to make any on the spot decisions which prevented any redos. They cleaned up at the end of each day and were able to isolate the kitchen from the rest of the house with plastic sheeting at our request, something they don’t normally do. The only improvements to the project we could suggest are the following: * Melvin knew all the details of the project, but on the two occasions he was not on site, things didn’t seem to go as smoothly. * My wife would have been less stressed if the project process had been explained in more detail so her expectations were more in line with what was going to be done each day. * We were led to believe we didn’t need to empty all cabinets, but our base cabinet modifications created enough sawdust to make cleanup more difficult. We wish we had emptied all of them."

"Paul McDonald is an experienced, outstanding cabinet maker and craftsman. In our first meeting he took the time to listen to our ideas and plans, and then put together really great designs for our spaces. We were very impressed by Paul's eye for design and detail. He had many suggestions and good ideas to made the spaces functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. He was also very receptive to our ideas. Paul is a true professional. He gave us a timeline for the project and kept us updated on progress as he began building the cabinets. With Paul there were no delays or surprises. He stuck to the planned schedule and installed the cabinets on time. His cabinets are of the highest quality - well-built, beautifully finished with workmanship far superior to commercial cabinets. He added numerous details and features that really enhanced the look and function of our space. We couldn't be happier with the results. We were so pleased with the home office and Murphy bed that we also asked Paul to design and install living room built-in bookcases and cabinets. We highly recommend Carpathian Woodworks!"

"The work was well done. The sofa looks better than it has in over 50 years. I grew up with this sofa as a child and it still sits better today than any new sofa I have ever sat on anywhere. It is solid, firm and supports the back and the body in a way sofas built today are just not built or designed to do. That is the reason I spent the money to have it rebuilt and recovered. I've waited for 25 years to have this work done. David was punctual, arriving on time, calling to schedule the delivery time, and delivering on time. He gave us an estimate of between $1600 and $1700, depending on what fabric I chose. He stayed on top of his subcontractor doing the upholstery work to insure the job was done in a timely fashion and the work was professionally completed. He invited us to come by and take a look at his location and see how the work is done, which we did. Since I used to do hand refinishing of antiques, rebuilding and reupholstery work, in another life time ago, so I am very familiar with all the aspects involved. It is difficult, dirty, and time consuming labor. David is set up to do dip stripping, however I prefer not to do this on my antiques. But I can say that the sofa has never looked or sat better than it does now. We have a great many pieces of furniture we have inherited which will need to have repair work done to, not necessarily complete refinishing, just repairs and minor refinishing. David will be called again. My only request that was not followed through on was that I did not receive the remainder of any unused fabric, and there were no protective sleeve caps made for the sofa to prevent wear, which the upholsterer would be expected to think about, as a long term protective measure against dirt, stains and wear on the sleeves. As an artist, I use all types of items in my creative work. So I wanted to use the remnants of this heavy gauge fabric."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Raleigh, NC

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.
