"I found Sparkle because of excellent reviews on Angie's List. The reviews did not lead me astray. I had a Danish teak chair from the 1960s that needed cushions. I had found some great vintage upholstery fabric from the era at a specialty store and Sparkle was happy to use that rather than selling me their own fabric. left the chair and fabric with them--they said my job would be complete in two weeks. The chair was ready a day early and I was very pleased with the result. They were careful to replicate vintage details, including the piping on both sides so the cushions can be flipped. The quality is excellent. I had some trouble getting the chair in my car, and the gentleman helping me load it was incredibly helpful. They are very pleasant folks to work with and I understand why their reviews are so good. Upholstering is expensive no matter where you go, but at least with Sparkle, you get what you pay for."

"They did a fantastic job, both repairing one couch and on reupholstering our second. Jad pointed out all of the places on our loveseat that could be improved, like fixing the stuffing in the arms of the chair, even though I’d only initially asked for it to be reupholstered. He didn’t charge me to redo the throw pillows, and in all did a great job. I cannot recommend this business highly enough, and look forward to using them in the future."

"Scott was excellent to work with. He provided an estimate, and picked up the table at an agreed upon time. When he delivered the finished product, I could not have been more pleased. The quality of his refinishing work was second to none, and closely matched the overall color of the table prior to the fire. Once I saw the table, I knew that I had made the correct choice in having the table refinished vs. buying a new replacement table."

He was timely and proactive in his communication. He is an extremely knowledgeable craftsman and provided the information & service I was looking for."

FAQs for furniture refinish projects in Sterling, VA

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.
