"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!!!!"

"Jeffrey from ICA turned our outdated fireplace into a gorgeous focal point.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."

"Roy and Linda did an excellent job! They are a local, family-owned business here in Wake Forest. I have a 30 year old Ethan Allen sofa and wing chair with footstool that I dearly love and could not part with but the fabric had become dated and sun-faded. Roy and Linda were very patient and helpful with my fabric-selection process. They explained exactly what they would be doing and what I could expect. They picked up my furniture from my house, and when finished, delivered it back to me and even carried it upstairs for me. They stayed in touch with me and kept me updated on the status of the project. The work done was top-notch and so beautiful! I will definitely use them again if I need other furniture re-upholstered, and I would recommend them to anyone needing re-upholstery services."

"I wouldn't hire them again. The guy is really nice but I think he has just got too much on his plate. He is hard to get a hold of. They would always come on time. They are all very nice. He is doing too much at once."

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.
