Thumbtack customerAug 2026

Steve at Furniture MD1 is simply fantastic! Steve helped me very expeditiously repair my friend’s chair, because I had broken my friend’s chair while I was visiting him. This whole entire process with Steve was smooth and a pleasure! I recommend Furniture MD1 unequivocally with my highest recommendation!

Took a 1930’s table that had been used as a craft table with cuts and he was able to make it beautiful again. Gave great options for finishes and finished new chairs to match. Highly recommend.

Fixed my broken bed in a timely manner.

Steve was great and very polite. I called him late at night on Monday because my bedframe broke and he was out to fix it the very next day. He was quick and took care of the issue no problems.

Bad communication, slow work, I am still waiting to receive the end product after over 14 months ( 1 year 2 months +)

Steve restained a large chest perfectly and ahead of schedule. The quality of the work was outstanding and exceeded my expectations.

I reached out to Steve about refinishing my burl wood table which belonged to my grandparents so it is extra special to me. He was so responsive and easy to communicate with from the moment I reached out and all the way through the project. He picked up the table from my house, took it back to his shop, and returned it a few weeks later, and I could not be happier. He did an absolutely incredible job - the table looks better than ever. Steve breathed new life into a truly prized possession and I can't wait for all the memories we'll continue to make around this table. If you need furniture repair/refinishing - look no further. Steve is your guy!!

Horrible communication, constant excuses, and constant rescheduling. Final product has flaws as pictured. Do yourself a favor and sort by 1 star review before booking.

Steve did an absolutely beautiful job restoring our rosewood table, which had a bunch of heat marks on it. See before and after pics. He provided options, explained everything clearly, and communicated with us in a timely and professional manner. His work is top notch! Highly recommend!

Steve, refurbished our 20-year-old kitchen table. The varnish was chipping off, all sorts of nicks and scratches. Dropoff and pickup was easy. It took two weeks. It looks brand-new!. Should have done it years earlier.

I’m super excited about what I consider a new bedroom set thanks to Steve! I’ve had the dresser drawers for over 20 years and several drawers had gotten really fragile and unstable overtime. Several moves contributed to it and Steve just made it brand new. He’s super efficient, creative and amazing craftsmanship. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend him and great value! Look at my before and after pics. Amazing job!!

My wife and I bought a 25 year-old used dining set a few months ago (see photo). Steve listened to what my wife and I wanted and at each decision point, he discussed with us our options and provided useful feedback. The dining set was delivered on schedule and we are delighted with the result.

We have a vintage washstand that has been in the family for a long time. During a move (sometime in the distant past) one of the side pieces (bar for hand towels) was badly cracked. We finally got around to fixing it during the pandemic (2021), and we found Steve (FurnitureMD1) on Thumbtack. The repair is amazing and almost invisible, even after being unrepaired for years. SO PLEASED!

Bisa C.Jun 2021

Being totally candid, if you need something done quickly, Steve is not for you. I gave him a table to repair that I expected back in 2 weeks and it took 7. With that said, when I finally got it back, it looked better than when I bought it. He is very, very skilled. If you have time and patience, you will not be disappointed.

Dawn M.Jul 2020

While I can say Steve's work is good, his communication and timeliness are extremely lacking. He had my project for about 6 months and drew the project out so long that I wasn't sure he'd ever finish it. The end product looks good even though he made a change that I did not approve and don't like. Overall, goid work but overshadowed by his poor customer service.

Anthony C.Mar 2020

Had a brand new nightstand that got damage during shipping. Steve did an excellent job repairing it. Can’t even tell it was ever damaged.

Steve is a wizard! I have two antique pieces from my family. There were chips and dings on a beloved secretary. I opted for the "touch up" as I may move in a few years. Well, it looks fantastic! Totally restored at a fraction of the cost for complete refurbish! Also, there were dings all over the wood of an antique chair. Waiting to welcome it home, but from the picture, superb job! Can't recommend Steve's expertise enough!
