Antique Barrister's Desk

We had an antique barrister's desk we wanted refinished. I found Johnny's on this site and decided to trust the positive feedback and ratings. We were extremely pleased with the service and the end product. The quote we received was competitive and included pick-up and delivery. Johnny is experienced, professional and talented. The piece came back to us on time and looks absolutely stunning. It is exactly what we wanted.

Refinishing & Reupholstering

I reviewed many furniture finishing shops before I decided to trust my heirloom pieces to Johnny. It was very important to me that these pieces be in the hands of a professional and trustworthy person. Johnny was meticulous during the sample process of the silver finish to be used, he did not proceed until I was delighted with the colour and patina. We agreed that silver leaf was the medium to use. I was so amazed at all the fine detail and texture of the wood carving on the settee!! Johnny recommended tufting only the back of the settee, so that it was not too busy. It was a good call, as I am still in awe of all the wood detail. I would like to thank his team including Beth, for all of their fine workmanship and care given to all of my cherished pieces. These pieces are now sound and STUNNING!

Thank you Johnny, I could not be any happier :)

Furniture refinishing

I had an old dark china cabinet stripped and painted white by John and his crew. When I walked in and saw it in their shop, I was speechless--it was so beautiful! They did an amazing job--so professional, so flawless. It looked like an entirely different piece. I am picky, and they surpassed my expectations! And they are a pleasure to deal with, esp. Robert and John, who are so nice.

Refinshing and rebuilding a couch and loveseat

Johnny did more than repair, refinish and rebuild our pieces. He helped us choose fabric that was in keeping with the period of the pieces. He is a very helpful, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. Johnny restored the beauty of our pieces, while preserving the original integrity, craftsmanship and intrinsic elegance.

Refinishing Vilas Maple dining set & reupholstery for 3 chairs

John, what a wonderful job you and your team did refinishing our Vilas maple dining set.
You were punctual, timely and reasonable in price. You were able to high light the beautiful grains in the wood. The stain and finish are perfect. We are thrilled with the new look in our home.

Refurb bedroom drawers

We had 2 pieces of bedroom furniture refurbished a year and a half ago and they looked spectacular when Johnny delivered them...I'm a little late on the review but just saw them on home stars.
Story starts by finding them in the yellow pages and by pure luck they worked out, better than we imagined.
They go above and beyond..we were in a real pinch when our family house had a fast closing date and I had no where to store my bedroom set inherited from my late mother. My sister found a couple places but Johnny's was the only one who offered to come pick it up and store it until we were ready to start the refurb. My sister lost the company name so we didn't know who to contact I was really nervous about losing the only 2 pieces left by my mom but when we finally found the number and called Johnny was as pleasant as ever and thankfully didn't get rid of the furniture. 4 months later we were going to move into our new home so we asked Johnny to start the work..which by the way was cheaper than buying a new set of similar quality.
another wonderful thing he did...
My husband picked up the wrong handles so when Johnny started our furniture he called with the problem i didn't even ask Johnny he offered himself, since he was going for a different project, went to the store and exchanged them for us. Very few places offer that level of service and kindness...thanks again to you and your staff for a beautiful job and being such great people.

antique buffet and tea cart, antique chair touch ups

We met John in an unusual way. Attic insulators had oversprayed foam insulation and they chose Johnny's as the place to remove thousands of foam speckles from about 20 antique pieces which had been stored (and covered) in the attic. Relieved at the results, we subsequent used Johnny's to refinish a beautiful 100 y.o. buffet made of 4 woods. Timely service, excellent communication and superior results all around. Would recommend 100% and will use again.
