What to check before hiring a furniture repairs

Photograph the furniture from multiple angles before contacting the craftsman — it helps them estimate the cost correctly.
Restoring old solid wood furniture is usually a good investment, as the material quality is superior.
When choosing upholstery material, think about durability (especially if you have children or pets) and ease of cleaning.
Ask the craftsman if they can add new elements (buttons, new legs, decorative inserts) for a modernized look.
Treat wood surfaces with protective lacquer or wax after restoration to extend their lifespan.
Avoid exposing restored furniture to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.
Compare at least 2–3 quotes before deciding, checking each craftsman's reviews on SmallJobs.
If your furniture has historical or sentimental value, mention this to the craftsman — they may recommend a more delicate restoration approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it worth repairing old furniture or better to replace it?

Solid wood furniture is almost always worth restoring — it's more durable than modern particleboard furniture and restoration can make it look excellent. Cheap old particleboard furniture may not be worth the repair cost.

Can the craftsman come to my home or do I need to take the furniture to the workshop?

It depends on the type of work. Small repairs (hinges, legs) can be done at the client's home. Reupholstering or complex restoration usually requires transport to the workshop.

How long does furniture restoration take?

A simple piece (chair, bedside table) can take 1–3 days. A complete furniture set (living room, bedroom) can take 1–3 weeks, depending on the volume of work.

What types of upholstery are available for reupholstering?

Options include various fabrics, genuine leather, eco-leather, and velvet. The price varies significantly depending on the chosen material.

Can particleboard (PAL) or MDF furniture be repaired?

Yes, though harder than solid wood. Structural repairs, hinge replacement, wrapping with film, or painting with special particleboard paints are possible.

My chair wobbles — how is it repaired?

Usually the joints are re-glued with wood adhesive and reinforced with dowels or brackets. If the structure is severely damaged, more complex interventions may be needed.
