"Guillermo did an excellent job installing new fabric on our Brown Jordan chaise lounges. He was on time, left his workplace immaculate, and charged us a competitive price. We will definitely use him again. "

"Everything about my experience with Furniture and Repairs was positive. They clearly explained their assessment process and reasonable charge to come out to personally inspect my furniture. They explained that once an estimate was provided, upon accepting the estimate they would deduct that charge from my total cost. The gentleman they sent out to assess my furniture was professional and patiently answered my questions. The cost of repairing my 6 pieces of mid-century furniture was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the work that they did. I couldn't be happier with the repairs. I inherited the furniture, and I was so nervous about substandard repairs, and these folks did an exceptional job. Some of the pieces were seriously damaged - wooden legs broken right off - and you can't tell where the damage was. They came to pick up my furniture and returned it in 2 weeks. I'm so delighted with my experience and I would highly recommend this company."

"<p>My experience with this company was very positive.  They were responsive to my initial request for contact and promptly scheduled a time to come and look at my two pieces of furniture.  The person who came to my house to examine my furniture was prompt and professional.  The person who actually did the work a week  later was also prompt and professional and did a great job with my tables.  They have never looked better.</p> <p>I was extremely pleased with the services provided by this company.</p> <br />"

"We used Envirotek annually to clean and refinish the deck when my wife owned a rental townhouse. I was pleased to see Envirotek pop up when searching for a contractor to power wash my house. Sammy's workers were very thorough and the paint looked like new when they finished."

"This is the second time I've used Acorn. They were originally recommended to me by a very high-end furniture designer at the SF Design Center to help repair damage to an ottoman that had broken. That repair was very tricky. They did a fantastic job (not expensive) and you absolutely cannot tell where the damage was! They do a great job, are pleasant to work with and reasonably priced - I highly recommend them."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in South San Francisco, 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.
