Thanks for the review! Orders placed prior to the outbreak were prioritized as soon as we were permitted to occupy our facility. We're so glad you felt we communicated effectively throughout the process. And we thank you for your patience.

Library Chair

I got this great chair off bidding wars for free. I called TMC and they sent out a very knowledgeable consultant that walked me through the entire process. Even during COVID they kept in touch with me on the status. I have it back and it is breathtaking.

Thanks for the excellent review Julie. We made every effort to keep our existing client base informed as we waded through the first months of the pandemic. Your office chair is "breathtaking"! All the best.

Restoration better than original

We had a large wooden coffee table with drawer that had a large surface scratch and was showing some significant wear and tear along the edges and feet. The wood is beautiful in this table and is a valuable piece of furniture which we wanted to restore. TMC did a beautiful job restoring the magnificent features of the table, bringing out the wood grain. They took care to match it perfectly to the side tables. They take incredible pride in their work and handle each piece so carefully. Their process is very meticulous and they don’t dry out the wood with the stripping technique. The table looks so much better than even when it was new!! They also recommended a beautiful fitted glass for the top of table to prevent further scratches. Looks magnificent! We are very pleased. They also f/u regularly to keep you informed of their progress. Only downside was the cost....but you get what you pay for!!!

Thank you for the glowing review Lynn! It's true - "you get what you pay for". Our customers are often surprised to see the natural grain in their wooden furniture that's been obscured for many years by layers of dust, natural oils & other pollutants. An outcome that is "BETTER" than new is what we strive for. It helps that your table is so well-constructed. We're sure you will cherish this piece for decades to come.

Reupholstered dining room suite chairs

Dinning room chairs were in excellent condition save and except for cushion and fabric after 30+ years of use. TMC did a great job bringing our chairs back to new! Quality fabrics and workmanship. Happy to support a local business especially during these unprecedented times where local businesses need to be supported.

Excellent work and service

TMC refinished my badly-damaged dining room buffet, along with three living room nesting tables. They also re-upholstered two dining room chairs. The quality of their work is excellent, and their customer service is A-1. I recommend them without hesitation!

furniture restoration

Brian came to see the chair that I wanted restored and upholstered. He mentioned my dining room table and said he would love to have it restored as well and made a proposal to me. He is not the first person to mention this to me.

I loved the finished product. Loved the colour of the material on the chair and the workmanship. The table was outstanding including the three new leaves they made for the table which matched perfectly even the inlay could be seen again. You could see the inlay on the edge of the table again.

Happy to hear your chair (& table) were restored to a level beyond your expectations. Over decades, wooden furniture tends to darken as dust & oils mix & settle into the original finish. But complete restoration returns it to its original glory. Thank you for this glowing review!

Furniture refinishing

Sales presentation too long. Furniture was picked up about a week before pandemic shut down. NO communication from company and voice mail on company phone just said company closed and do not leave a message as they were not monitoring phone.No communication until after shut down started lifting and phone voice mail message said to leave message but do not expect a quick reply. Got a reply a couple days after leaving a terse message to arrange delivery of table. First delivery table could not be put together. Had to wait another week for delivery.

Thank you for your project with us. As you mentioned, TMC was closed from Mid-March to June 1 in accordance with the direction for all non-essential businesses to close. We happily complied with this direction in order to keep our staff, their families, and our customer's safe during these truly unprecedented circumstances. No work was being done at this time, which we made quite clear on our voicemail greeting and all email correspondence. Fortunately, virtually all of our customers have understood that these circumstances are well beyond our control and have worked with us to complete their projects quickly and accurately. 
We only just reopened June 1, delivering your project on June 17, just over two weeks after reopening. In total, we completed your order in 4 weeks, when deducting the shutdown time. This is much faster than the initially agreed to 8-12 week turnaround. 
We regret that a second delivery was required. Repeat visits are inefficient and costly to us, but it was necessary in order to securely attach the base to the tabletop. We agree this should not have been overlooked, but we are pleased that we were able to complete this service in only 5 business days.

Table, servers

They look amazing! Originally mahogany red and now a beautiful deep espresso, they look brand new. We're so happy we didn't sell the pieces as we had planned as they are quality wood. It was more than we had wanted to spend but upon seeing the final products we are very happy, totally worth it. TMC worked with us on the budget and each member we dealt with was professional and friendly, especially Tino!

Great to hear! You made the right choice by restoring your quality pieces instead of replacing with inferior new. We are confident you will enjoy your dining room furniture for many years to come.
