Scratches, stains, and faded finishes can take away from the visual appeal of wood furniture.

Testimonials
José does beautiful work. He is truly an artist and he restored the original beauty of my grandmother’s oak chairs. Thank you!
Marcela D.
Just picked up my great grandmother's 100 + year old small oak chair w rattan seat. The rattan seat was broken. I was doubtful how the rattan could be matched color wise to such an old stain and how the repair would look. It's unbelievable how well it matches, looks fabulous. Very fair pricing and easy process.

Jose Sorto did a fantastic job on my four danish cord chairs. His work is impeccable! I was so pleased with the result. Jose is very professional, and clearly enjoys his work. He also picked up the chairs, and delivered them to me when the work was completed. I highly recommend him.
