Refinishing Furniture

After years of wear and tear from children and pets, I decided to get my very worn desk, dining table and kitchen chairs re-finished. I contacted Touch Ups Plus and am so glad I did. Communication was excellent. Lynn kept me up to date re timing, and spent a lot of time with me explaining the different finish options. The result was even better. Everything looks better than it did originally - and in particular, what Touch Ups Plus was able to do with my badly scratched desk is amazing. I would definitely use them again and highly, highly recommend.

Coffee tables

I am absolutely thrilled with how my furniture refinishing project turned out! The attention to detail and care taken to restore and paint my 25 yr old pieces is impressive.
The finish is flawless, and the color is exactly what I wanted. The communication was top-notch.
I would highly recommend Touch Up Plus to anyone looking to give their furniture a fresh new look. Thank you.

kitchen set and buffet

I had a kitchen table, 6 chairs and a buffet refurnished. They were one of the highest estimates. I said that I wanted it to be the same as the original. It came much later than promised. When it was delivered the kitchen leaf was missing. The finish was not the same as the original, which was very disappointing. There were breaks in the finish on all 4 kitchen legs. Originally, they told me they could send someone out to correct the legs. When I didn't hear from them I emailed them my dissatisfaction. They don't take well to criticism and they don't take responsiblity for their mistakes. I received a nasty email in reply. They asked me to either take another day off work for the corrections to be made or to dismantle the legs and uber them for the corrections to be made. Neither was an option for me. They did uber the table leaf to me but are completely inflexible as to a time for corrections to be made that would not involve me taking more time off work. None of these problems would have occured if they had checked with me before refinishing my furniture differently than the original. They should have given me a heads up that it would take longer than the 4 weeks promised. If my furniture had been inspected before it was sent out and if they had taken some care to ensure my leaf was sent out with the rest of the furniture. All these problems could have been prevented. I don't recommend this company. I am disappointed with my furniture.

Wow "D.E." ... !!!! Unbelievable!

1. "one" of the highest estimates ... means we weren't the highest, but we were in the correct ballpark of where it should be!
2. Yes, we were running behind and admitted that. Our son Mike, got very sick from a trip to Spain and was off work much longer than
expected!
3. Because we were running behind, when you asked us if we would also be removing (very dirty) shelving covers and spraying inside of the
buffet and I advised "no, it was not normally included in price, but that we would be spraying the inside of the doors" BUT I also offered for us
to do it NO CHARGE because we were behind in our ETA. We knew you needed it for Thanksgiving.
4. The finish WAS the same as the original. Your original finish was very old and quite dirty with kitchen food... hardly any finish left on the
set.
5. Yes, admittedly, as noted at time of delivery, there were some missing white areas on the backs of the kitchen legs ... albeit visible only if
you were on the ground looking up, or bending down purposely to inspect all surfaces.
6. At the time of delivery... 5 days before Thanksgiving Monday ... I called to process final payment (which you paid), you mentioned "the set
looks great and you had some other pieces you'd like us to quote on ... we told you that the leaf for the table had been 'missed' in the shop by
the movers and offered to to get it to you the next day if you needed it for Thanksgiving dinner. You said it wasn't needed and then you noticed
a spot or two where colour was missed. I said I would definitely get Mark in to fix that and would deliver the leaf same time, but with the
following week being a short week and we being booked solid for next 2 weeks, it would be a couple of weeks before I could get him in and that
I'd be in touch "in the next week or so" to schedule a time/day.
7. At the beginning of the following week (just last week!) you emailed a very unpleasant message to me about how "disappointed" you were with us
etc. etc. ... a message sent with both guns blazing. I responded that we had not intentionally forgot the leaf, etc. and that only four (4)
business days had passed (!!) and I was still trying to work out when I could get Mark there. It was then you told me it would have to be
after regular business hours or a weekend because you couldn't take time off work. I offered to have Mark come one day at 3:30 p.m. and you
wouldn't accommodate. We went back and forth in emails.
8. I made arrangements (and paid for) a delivery company to pick up your leaf (all wrapped) and deliver to the concierge desk at your building this
past Friday because you mentioned another special dinner birthday party you'd be having Nov. 8th and I wasn't sure I'd get Mark back in before
then.
9. You sent another email yesterday (Sunday at 4:00) again coming at us about how disappointed you were and how terrible we were at not getting
things fixed, looking after a very unhappy customer etc.
10. This morning at 8:46 a.m., coincidentally three (3) hours BEFORE I got notice from HomeStars of the review you had made for us on our page
to advise that I would book Mark in for Monday, November 4th (next week) to fix the missing spots of white.
11. At 11:46 a.m. I got notice from HomeStars of your review.
12. At 12:51 p.m. I sent an email advising you to ignore my message re Nov. 4th. Mark would not be returning now .. and for you to have a nice day!

Queen Anne Desk Restoration

I needed to have my Queen Anne desk restored. Found Lynn, Mark and Mike here on Homestars. The quality of work done is exceptional. Additionally, dealing with Lynn and Mark was always a pleasure. They were professional and their communication was excellent throughout the whole process. I felt as if I was dealing with a real, family-run business who clearly take pride in the work that they do. Mark even took the time to show me around the shop to show me what he was working on for other clients. This was no faceless corporation, and it felt refreshing. I knew my desk was in good hands with them, and I was certainly not disappointed. In a word, okay, two words, highly recommended!!

We have a 30 year old cherry dining room table that was starting to show it's age and use with some significant scratches and gouges. Touch Ups Plus picked up our table and completely refinished the table top. They were able to arrange excellent movers and the table looks like new again. They we so easy and professional to deal with in terms of scheduling and completing the work to our schedule.

Pine table refinished

We highly recommend this company for any wood restoration. We had a 25 year old pine table with a lot of scratches and dents. Now after the refinish it looks better than when we bought it. Lynn, Mark and Mike were easy and great to work with, friendly and helpful and with great pricing.
