  • "Mr. Winstead is a knowledgeable professional in the art of furniture repair. He skills as a businessman are of highest quality and the same can be said of his ability to restore your personal property back to their prior state. Not only is my furniture restored but my peace of mind has been restored as well.”

    MEG, ASHEVILLE, NC

  • “Asheville Furniture Repair did an amazing job restoring my chairs to like-new condition, tightening them and painting them completely in a color and type that perfectly matches the color of the dining table. These folks are artists, and I am absolutely amazed at their talent. If I could give 10 stars to signify PERFECT service in every way, I would gladly do so.”

    RUTH, ASHEVILLE, NC

  • “Asheville Furniture Repair did a stunning job restoring a corner cabinet that was originally built by my father in 1960. The cabinet was in poor condition and needed a tremendous amount of work to bring it back to life. Thanks to the sophisticated craftsmanship and creative vision of Jeremy, my family heirloom has been beautifully transformed into an elegant piece of furniture.”

    Virginia, Asheville, NC

  • “I live in Johnson City, TN and have driven to Asheville twice because they are that great at restorations. I've given them two challenging projects—furniture that has been in my family since the 1800s—and they turned them into brand-new looking pieces. These folks are so good I won't go anywhere else. Even more, they are so nice it’s a pleasure to work with them.”

    Wilkes, Johnson City, TN

  • “Excellent craftsmanship. I left in Jeremy’s hands an old vanity that was my grandmother’s. Needless to say it has a lot of sentimental value & I was incredibly nervous. It has three mirrors on the back, but in transport when I moved to Asheville, one of the mirrors had been lost. Jeremy was able to replicate it perfectly; I can’t even tell which side was the original!”

    Erin, Asheville, NC

  • "Asheville Furniture Repair repaired and refinished an antique chest for us. They did a beautiful job. It had sustained a fair amount of damage and they completely fixed it. The refinishing job was perfect. Just the right amount. It still looks antique but so so much better. I highly recommend them."

    Frank, Asheville, NC

  • "I am amazed at the quality of work, the professionalism, the knowledge, and the friendliness of Jeremy and the entire crew at Asheville Furniture Repair. Their work is phenomenal and I will always reach to them first when it comes to anything related to furniture!"

    Brendon, Arden, NC

  • "Each time we have used Asheville Furniture Repair they have communicated well, shown up on time, and performed their work in a friendly and professional manner. The refinishing and repairs have been excellent. I completely recommend!"

    Stephanie, Asheville, NC

  • "I am incredibly impressed with Asheville Furniture Repair. I am a professional harpist and needed a leg on one of my harps repaired. I had been putting it off for months because I was waiting to find someone I trusted. Jeremy delivered! He was responsive, efficient, and most importantly of all, did high-quality work. The fix was seamless!"

    Jessica, Asheville, NC

  • "I want to give a shout-out to Jeremy and his team. They are fantastic to work with and their craftsmanship is impeccable. I highly recommend Asheville Furniture Repair! Anytime you think your furniture is broken beyond repair, give Jeremy a call. He works magic."

    Taylor, Hendersonville, NC

  • "These guys are insanely talented. I brought in a MCM shelving system that I thought was beyond saving (mold, structural damage, missing veneer) but through some sort of wizardry they were able to restore it to something beautiful. They take their time and their prices are super fair for the quality of work they do. Great customer service too. Highly recommend."

    Melissa, Johnson City, TN

  • "I had the seats of two antique spindle back chairs re-caned by Asheville Furniture Repair and the results will surely last at least another 50 years. I'm so thrilled to have found a business that I can trust any of my furniture whether antique or newer to for repairs."

    Marjorie, Arden, NC

  • "Asheville Furniture Repair brought my grandmother's antique dining table and chairs back to life. Jeremy and his team worked a miracle and the set looks stunning! The color and finish are perfect. I know my grandmother would be so pleased. Thank you for restoring this set, it has made me tremendously happy and I am so excited about handing it down to my daughter."

FAQ

  • Can you do the work at my home or business?

    Sometimes, depending on the nature of the work (for example, if something is too large to move). We’ll advise you as to what makes the most sense.

  • Can you work with my moving company or insurance?

    We repair a lot of moving damage. We work with and bill the client directly, and then they then get reimbursed through their moving company or insurance. 

  • Do you offer pickup and delivery?

    We do. Delivery fees are based on time, distance, and number of people required. We are happy to include pickup and delivery costs in your estimate. 

  • Can I just stop by with my furniture?

    Furniture drop-off is by appointment only. We are often out on jobs and because of limited space, we can only accept furniture that is already on our schedule. Please fill out the “request an estimate” form to get started.

  • Do you do rush work?

    We offer limited rush work for an additional fee. Please note in your estimate request if you will be needing a quicker turnaround than our current turnaround time above and we will do our best to accommodate. 

  • Can you drive out to take a look at my piece so I don’t need to take photos?

    While we think photos are the simplest way for us to create an estimate, sometimes a project will require repair on multiple pieces (such as in the case of moving damage). In those situations, we are able to arrange an on-site consultation.
