Furniture Repair for Temecula, Riverside, and Nearby
Are you looking for a company that does furniture repair in Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee, or the surrounding areas?
As you’ve probably already realized, there aren’t a lot of furniture repair shops around anymore. It could be because this type of work is one of those “dying arts.” But it also could have something to do with the fact that a lot of the furniture people own just isn’t worth repairing, so there isn’t a lot of demand for furniture repair companies. So, when you do need to find someone who can do furniture repair, it can be difficult to locate someone.
Although most of the projects we take on at Smith Farms are commissions to design and build custom furniture pieces, our company is also available to do furniture repair on existing wood pieces.
Here are a few things to consider about furniture repair:
Some Furniture Is Worth the Investment to Repair, But Some Isn’t
Furniture repair is a great choice when the piece is unique, irreplaceable, or holds sentimental value. In these cases, people often feel that the repair costs are justified because it means they can continue to use and enjoy a special piece for many more years. Another case where repair often makes sense is when you’ve invested in a quality piece, and it just needs a specific repair or needs to be refinished.
Inexpensive, mass-produced furniture pieces aren’t often worth repairing. While it can feel wasteful to just dispose of a piece rather than repairing it, the cost for the repair can sometimes be more than the piece is worth.
Furniture Repair Costs More Than Some People Expect
Often, the cost to repair a piece of furniture is more than people initially expect. This is because it’s typically more complicated than it seems.
Quality repairs tend to take a lot of time. Even an issue that seems like it will have a simple fix is often quite involved. In certain instances, we may be required to completely disassemble a piece, hand craft new parts, reassemble it, and refinish it to get it looking like new again.
You might be able to find someone who will do a quick, cheap fix for you, but these types of repairs either don’t look great and/or won’t last very long.
High-quality work, like the furniture repair work we do at Smith Farms, is always going to cost more than a cheap fix, but we promise you will love the end result!
Smith Farms Only Takes on Projects That We Are Confident Will Be Successful
If we’re not sure that our repair will be effective and long lasting, we will probably decline to take on your project.
We hate to disappoint potential customers by telling them “no,” but we’d rather do that than take their money and then not complete the job to their full satisfaction.
Before we say yes to a project, we carefully evaluate the piece to determine whether or not the furniture piece can be fixed, and also if we’re the best company to do it. We have many years of experience in fine carpentry and can take on most of the furniture repair projects that come our way, but there are rare cases when we have to decline a job.
