  • *****

    We were blown away by the attention to detail and quality of Dennis’s work on our outdoor teak furniture. They look brand new. Will definitely use Dennis again.

  • *****

    Denis did an outstanding job restoring a bookcase that was damaged by a flood. His prices were reasonable and the turnaround time was amazing.

  • *****

    Denis brought this extremely old table back to life repairing the intricate wood work & footers. Very pleased with his careful repair & finishing. This piece will last another 100 yrs!

  • *****

    My husband and I were gifted a very beautiful, all wood 1960 5-piece bedroom set from my grandparents as a wedding gift (it was previously their bedroom set). We were nervous about getting it refinished as we didnt want to compromise the natural and aged beauty. When Denis came to look at the furniture, he made us feel confident that he could restore the furniture to its original beauty. The price was very reasonable, especially considering all the repairs that were needed. He picked up the set from our home and delivered it back to us within 2 weeks! We are so happy with how it all turned out, and we cannot recommend Denis enough!

  • *****

    I can't say enough about Denis, his talent, knowledge and repair turnaround time. He picked up, repaired and returned a damaged leg of my Mid-Century Scandinavian solid teak dining table in less than 1 week! He is a perfectionist with his work!

  • *****

    Denis did a great job. Very fair price, repair was done very quickly and it looks great.

  • *****

    Absolutely impressed with the work. It exceeding my expectations. Dennis kept me informed and sent photos as the project advanced. Again, it completely exceeded my high expectations. I look forward to working with Dennis again in the future. Joe Cap

    Fantastic work! I had a large dining table and a large king bed set, moved several times, nicks around the edges, but very good, heavy, older pieces. One "dent" in the table was a bit deep but he made it disappear! Denis came to the house, fixed everything in less than an hour, cleaned up. It was all perfect and better then I hoped for! And he was the first to respond to my phone call - never heard back from the others! Would recommend Denis for furniture new or old! I'm very happy! ~Lynn

    Remarkable artisan in the style and manner of an Old World Craftsman! We brought Denis a 100-year-old inlaid Mission Oak desk complete with a snapped corners, deep dog scratches and distressed shellac finish. Not only was Denis fully confident of restoring this unique heirloom piece, he was enthusiastic about getting going as if the project was both interesting and challenging. Denis hand-sanded (!) every corner, nook and surface, removing decades of dirt and grime. Using a razor blade, he carefully cleaned any opened, mosaic spaces to fill in later. He sent me pictures almost every day of the progress and wow, was it impressive. i made one stop during the process so we could agree on the finish and the rest was just waiting. The finished piece is amazing. Denis repaired every scratch and defect where one would not be able to know such imperfections existed! We were blown away, that's how impressive his work is. Denis is both an artist and a professional. Unlike a bigger operation where other less seasoned people may be doing the work, Denis does the work! You can be confident if you leave your treasured furniture, that it will be expertly finished exactly as you expect and agreed upon. Don't worry about price, one gets what they pay for. With Denis's Furniture Repair & Restoration, you're getting an expert restorer, artisan and wood craftsman and years of enjoyment with your resurrected favorite pieces!

  • *****

    Had 2 Repairs so far by Denis and he does excellent work. Just dropped off some once beautiful, Hawaiian carved, stack tables that were scratched and semi sanded and had broken legs, and when I picked them up yesterday they were absolutely beautiful! He said he cleaned the carvings out with an air compressor and power washed them, sanded them and fixed everything loose & broken and then painted them! They look brand new! He tells people he is somewhat expensive, but he does a lot of work on each item and makes sure it will last a long time and you can tell he is gifted, an artist! Thank you Denis!

  • *****

    An awesome job by a highly skilled professional. Denis restored our oak chest, a valued family heirloom, so that we will enjoy it for many more years and pass it along to future generations. Denis communicates well, fulfills his commitments, and is a pleasure to deal with.

  • *****

    I had a solid oak desk used for years that I just could not bring myself to replace with MDF particleboard. Denis painted it white and it looks great. He picked it up at my home and delivered the completed job back to me in the timeframe he promised, something that does not usually happen . So now I have a new look for a beloved piece of furniture, very pleased with his work.

  • *****

    Denis carefully repaired and refurbished several pieces of furniture for me.
    In particular, he repaired a 100+ year old china cabinet that once belonged to my grandmother. The cabinet was damaged in a move. A piece of the crown was broken off and the body of the cabinet had faded over the years. Denis replaced the broken the piece and buffed the body, so the cabinet now looks renewed. He also repaired the crown of a TV cabinet damaged in the move and constructed an interior shelf that matched the color of the cabinet. I now once again have a useful piece of furniture. I am very impressed with the quality of his work. Thank you, Denis.

    Denis did a 5 star job on cleaning and painting my wicker porch furniture . It looks like new even though it is very old. He also repainted my heavy metal dining chairs and glass topped table. I am very pleased and highly recommend Denis.

  • *****

    After trying to contact other furniture repair businesses with no response, Denis contacted me after my first email inquiry. He picked up two pieces, got them done in a very timely manner at a very fair price. Im very satisfied with the results and will be bringing him a larger piece of a 58 year old set that hes agreed to repair/ restore. Im very satisfied and Ill bet you will be too if you choose to use his services. Thank you Denis!

  • *****

    Denis is amazing. We have a very large and heavy bedroom set that is several years old. The footboard had broken, and I did not think it could be repaired.

    I called Denis and he came over, took a look and brought the footboard to his repair shop.

    A short time later, Denis had it repaired beyond perfection.

    You will not be disappointed in this Master Craftsman's work. His work is beyond expectations!

    Great experience with Denis. Excellent workmanship. We had a broken lid on our hope chest and Denis picked up, dropped off and masterfully repaired the lid.

  • *****

    I trusted Denis with an older antique piece of furniture and using his experience and artistic talent he did an amazing job! I am very happy and would definitely highly recommend him for any type of furniture work.

  • *****

    I called to verity service was available. I was told to bring in the broken chair leg. IT WAS FINISHED THE NEXT DAY. Nice people to work with. Solid repair done.

  • *****

    Great job on my cracked solid mahogany dining chair…looks good as new! Thanks Denis!!

  • *****

    This Gentleman is a craftsman. He has restored two pieces for me and hopefully soon a third. The first was an old family dresser which had been moved around and stored for decades. Rough shape. Looks amazing. Better than when in my Grandmothers house. The second a desk my Dad used for decades that had been well used. Looks better than it did new. His work is flawless. He costs a bit but you get what you pay for. I can not say enough positive words about his ability and the outcomes I have had.

  • *****

    We contacted Denis about restoring a dining room cabinet that had some major scratch and scuffs on it. Denis is very easy to work with and contact. He restored the cabinet to look like new. His work is excellent and he completed everything in less than one week. I would highly recommend Denis for any furniture restoration projects.

  • *****

    Who do you trust with your grandfather's dental cabinet? I looked at the reviews and decided to trust Denis. He did not disappoint! The cabinet is from 1902. My mom always called this Tiger Wood. Denis and I decided to leave some of the blemishes that the cabinet had sustained in all the years of usage. I, in fact, used it in my own dental practice for 50 years and recently retired. It is now a stunning addition to my home.
    Thanks, Denis and friends. Ya did good! I love it!

    Very professional and excellent work. He does what he says hes going to do. How much more can you ask for?

  • *****

    I had stored a piece of fine antique wood furniture for several years in a hot garage, and when I moved it and unwrapped it, some of the glued pieces had come apart. It was fine work, but Denis restored it beautifully and was very timely with the repair. I will certainly use him again for similar work. And he makes house calls. :-)

  • *****

    I trusted Denis with the restoration of an antique console/fold-out card table which I planned to use as a desk, and he did NOT disappoint! What I bought for $50 was rickety, showed water damage and was badly splintered along the edge of the table-top, but I suspected hid a beautiful piece beneath the trauma (it was clearly marked on the underside as property of NY’s Waldorf-Astoria hotel). The transformed piece - turned-around in less time than I had anticipated - showcased Denis’ expertise; having braced and glued the legs, he had expertly (& painstakingly, I’m sure) restored a glossy, smooth wood veneer and applied a finish/lacquer which brought out the beauty of the table’s “good bones”. Not an inexpensive project, but yielding a result which I’ll treasure forever. Thank you, Denis

  • *****

    Denis does not cut corners and is a master at his craft. I had a dining chair with a broken leg and he secured it with a steal rod and then glued it. Most others just use glue. Looks like new!!

  • *****

    Denis was professional and always took or returned my calls. He did a beautiful job of refinishing me bedside table and completed the job in less than a week. I highly recommend him to anyone needing furniture repair

  • *****

    Denis is a master furniture craftsman! I had a 30 year old wooden dining room chair that was broken on Thanksgiving. The front 2 legs broke off. I thought for sure it was done for. In less than a week, Denis repaired it and it looks as good as new! You can't tell it from the other chairs in the set and you can't tell where it was broken. His prices are reasonable too.

  • *****

    Great job

  • *****

    I work from home and I have a wooden desk that broke. I couldn't use the drawers. Denis dropped by my house and gave a quick estimate. In less than 30 minutes, he expertly restored my desk to working order and you can't even tell where he fixed it. Denis is a furniture magician! I highly recommend Denis for all of your furniture repairs!

  • *****

    Denis repaired a large wooden, display easel, customizing the repairs for long-lasting results.

  • *****

    Denis refinished our kitchen cabinet door! Great service! Great job! Great price!

  • *****

    Denis refinished our kitchen cabinet doors! They look beautiful! Great service! Great job and a great price! I would highly recommend him!

  • *****

    We have an Ethan Allen dining room set we purchased well over 30 years ago. The chair frames were fine, but the seats were all sinking when sat on, meaning the upholstered part of the chair required professional reinforcement.
    Denis custom built wooden panels for all 8 chairs that pushed up under the cushioned part of the seats and strengthened it with wooden supports. The end product has bought many more years of enjoyment of our chairs, and is so beautifully constructed it looks like it came from an Ethan Allen factory, but even better.
    Denis is clearly a great craftsman who can do anything. Wonderful attention to detail and all for a reasonable price. I highly recommend him.

  • *****

    Denis was amazing! He sent pics and updates without us having to ask. He was polite and professional and delivered our table upon completion.
    The table He restored for us looks better than I had hoped or imagined.
    I would recommend this business highly.

  • *****

    Denis did a wonderful job in repairing my tall wood cabinet :)

  • *****

    Denis work is amazing and Im so happy with it. He is an artist and Im very pleased. He even matched the color perfectly to a painted piece of furniture that got damaged in a move. All of my pieces were either antique or vintage and he not only repaired them but you cant even see where they were broken. I highly recommend his work and his prices are fair.

    5 stars isn't enough! Denis refinished a 25 year old sideboard and buffet that was in desperate need of updating. The knowledge he has is amazing! Service... Impeccable! Attention to all detail... Impeccable! Our dated dining room pieces look brand new and modern now. I will recommend him to anyone looking for refinishing work. Thank you Denis!!!

  • *****

    I received fast, excellent repair services at a reasonable price! I definitely would recommend them for your furniture repair needs!

  • *****

    Outstanding workmanship. Denis refinished our dining room table that another so called wood repair guy had ruined the top. It looks like the day we bought it. Denis called me back and was on time when he said. Would definitely use again. Wish all professionals had his appreciation for their workmanship.

  • *****

    Denis repaired our 1940s family heirloom desk with great precision and in very short order. We also appreciated the pick up and drop off. Will definitely use again! Very nice and easy to work with!

  • *****

    I can't say enough good things about Denis! He is a true craftsman and does excellent work. He stayed in EXCELLENT communication with me throughout the whole process of refinishing my great grandfather's 6 leaf dining room table. It had turned black from over a century of lacquer darkening, PLUS my mother, in an attempt to even out the grain she didn't like, put layers of black varnish on it. Denis handled all that previous abuse and we discovered the original oak table was tiger wood! The whole process from start to finish was a pleasure. Thank you Denis! So nice to work directly with the person doing the work.

  • *****

    Denis is a true craftsman - he repaired the leg of a treasured teak dining room chair for us. He responded quickly, did the work promptly and with great appreciation for the quality and uniqueness of the chair. We will use him again if the need arises!

  • *****

    Denis repaired our Belgian Shrank book cases, armoire and grandfather clock after a flood in our house. Completely repaired and reconstruct a backing and leg for our armoir - was able to match finishes exactly. Very professional!! Prices were extremely fair - great value. Don't waste money on new hard wood furniture...Denis can make your favorite furniture/family heirlooms look like new!

  • *****

    Denis,
    I cannot let another day pass without telling you, once again, what a magnificent job you did replacing the black laminate on our credenza. You performed somewhat of a miracle. The door is beautiful and like new. We admire your work every time we look at our credenza. You are truly the best!

  • *****

    Denis is a superb craftsman who did excellent work repairing a table and he is also prompt and responsive. Highly recommended.

  • *****

    Excellent service and quality repair. Highly recommend.
    Denis just repaired a coffee table that was damaged when we moved.
    He picked up the table, beautifully repaired it, and delivered it back within a few days.

  • *****

    Denis recently painted 6 pieces of Ethan Allen furniture well over 25 years old and he did a beautiful job. He is a perfectionist !! He finished the work much faster than expected also. I highly recommend.

    Denis, you have restored our beautiful credenza to its former beauty. You are, indeed, a master of furniture restoration. This is the second piece of furniture you have restored for us. If ever we are in need of another repair, we will call on you. You’re the best.
    Thank you!

    Denis Temali was recommended to me when I was seeking someone to fix a newly purchased very fine furniture entrance piece! It had only been delivered days before when a worker placed a large paint can on it, turning the can, creating surface scratches in a circular design. I was quite upset as this was a very expensive new entrance table! I had splurged! I wanted it fixed to look like new again!! Denis assured me he could fix it 100%. He was a man of his word as it was delivered back to my home this morning looking PERFECT and like new!!!! I am so relieved and happy!! His work is of PERFECTION!!! He was also very nice to work with in his pick up and return!! Thank you Denis again so very much!! Couldn't be happier or more pleased!!! I highly recommend your work!!!!

  • *****

    Denis just restored a large antique console piece for me. He picked it up and delivered it back in less than one week. He did such a wonderful job restoring and refinishing the piece. It is beautiful! Your furniture is in good hands with Denis and I have to add, his father too!!

  • *****

    We recently moved and had damage to the top and side of our faux marble and wrought iron sofa back table. The faux marble had been crushed on one side, and we were afraid it could not be repaired. Unfortunately, it was part of a set with a coffee table and two end tables. We did an extensive search for a replacement, but none could be found. After contacting several furniture repair companies (none of whom could do such a repair), we found Denis. He immediately took on the challenge and not only did a beautifully flawless repair, but did it in a very timely manner. He is truly a master craftsman and we would highly recommend him!

    Denis Temali is an Old World woodworker who is a master of his craft. My cat jumped on my 18th century Scottish tall clock sending it crashing face down on the tile floor. Denis’ mission was to work with the fragile cracked case, and broken chunks and pieces of walnut and restore the clock. That he did so was impressive enough. But that he did so in under a week was astonishing. He also masterfully repaired lesser damage to my 19th century full bonnet top Philadelphia highboy. I found Denis through an internet search, took a chance, and boy, am I glad I did.

  • *****

    Denis did an amazing job restoring a teak coffee table and two end tables that were in need of a lot of work. Everything came back looking brand new. I wont hesitate to use him again for any projects in the future.

  • *****

    I honestly cannot say enough about Denis, his work is absolutely amazing!! It is so obvious that he takes great pride in what he does and I could not be happier with the work he’s done for me - so grateful that I found him and you will be too!!!!

  • *****

    Denis restored a cherry wood antique secretary desk with brass pulls and knob, and a coordinating chair for me. The result was awesome. He beautifully restored the two pieces. I am so pleased with the result that I am considering having more antique pieces restored by Denis. He is very talented and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.

    Restored my water damaged wood furniture to new! Very pleased with the quality of service, timeliness and professionalism.

    Denis did a wonderful job of restoring my mahogany front door. The door was in bad condition due to years of sun and rain exposure. Denis and his father were prompt, attentive, and made sure that everything was just perfect. Now the door looks like new. Thank you, Denis!

    Excellent craftsmanship. Please call for chair repair.

    Denis did an amazing job on restoring and refinishing our 3pc 30 year old professional desk set. I highly recommend them and will use them for our future needs as well! Thanks Denis!!

  • *****

    Denis has just repaired a very fine dining room chair that was broken in our move. He also repaired a chip on a white bed footboard. Both repairs made that furniture look as good as new. Very professional job! What a craftsman!! I recommond that you give Denis a call for any repair or restoration job you might have.

  • *****

    As you read, as a future client of Denis, the below 5 star reviews you will understand why I can't possibly express more glowing remarks. Denis is an accomplished artist in all of his areas of expertise. Call him to learn what he can offer, please. You will be rewarded with excellent craftsmanship.

    We are very pleased with the job Denis did repairing and refinishing our dining room table. He very professional, excellent craftmanship and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend.

  • *****

    After having Denis restore my 2 teak chaise lounges with matching personal table and matching tea cart I would never use anyone else. He is a true artist with natural ability to bring items back to perfect as when they were new. My husband had him repair the wood on a very high end stereo speaker damaged from moving and I gave him a 100 year old cast iron bad to refinish. All were remarkable. He obviously has a natural gift. And he is a lovely personable person that knows quality.

  • *****

    I had a very pleasant experience with Denis. He repaired an antique end table leg. His finishing work is excellent and reasonably priced. He finished the repair in short time and within estimated quote. Denis is personable and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend his services.

  • *****

    Denis was amazing to work with! His workmanship was perfection! We couldnt believe when he called to say he was delivering our completely refinished dining table top two days after picking it up! You just dont get that kind of service and level of quality anywhere these days. He is truly an artist who takes pride in his craft, he is not inexpensive but worth every cent! Highly recommend!

  • *****

    Ethan Allen recommended Denis and I see why. He was outstanding—professional, efficient, kind, and did great work. I appreciate you Denis. Thank you!

  • *****

    Denis' work is outstanding! We contacted Denis to repair and refinish a teakwood base and table and he responded immediately to our inquiry. Denis quickly scheduled an appointment to see the table and table base and to evaluate and discuss next steps. Denis was on time and provided a quote on the spot. As soon as we decided to move forward with the restoration, Denis returned to pick up the base and table. Within four days, Denis delivered the finished product. The workmanship is by far beyond what we expected. He did a beautiful job, and the set looks band new. Denis is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and his attention to detail is awesome! We highly recommend Denis for any furniture repair and restoration needs. Thank you!

    We were extremely satisfied with the work Denis did on the top of a dining room table and the tops of four other pieces. Denis is very professional!

    The turnaround time on the refinishing was timely, and it is great that he picks up and returns the furniture as part of his service.

    You can be confident that Denis will do an excellent job for you!

    Denis was prompt and responsive, but most of all he did a masterful job restoring our beautiful Italian chest of drawers. This was a challenging piece, with small pieces of delicate, inlaid veneer; with Denis's help, it now looks as good as it did when we purchased it. Denis is a true craftsman.

    I had a fantastic experience with Denis. I had a relatively new, solid walnut dining table that had not been sealed properly and was now water damaged with spots and waves and almost a weird sticky texture.

    I contacted Denis, and he immediately looked at photos that i took and got back to me.

    He picked up my table and refinished it within days. He brought it back to me and the table looks like a completely different piece. It is GORGEOUS!

    He repaired the damage, put a much better sealer on it, and the table is now smooth and perfect! This was money well spent and Denis is extremely talented. Its a showpiece now.

    I highly recommend.

    I have a very nice cherry table that was damaged when I moved to St.Pete. It looked awful with big chip in it, the sides were scraped and the top was gouged in many places. I never thought it would look nice again. Denis took the table and the leaves and when he brought them back I didn't think it was the same table. I can't tell where any of the damage was. Amazing! He does great work, shows up at the when he says he will and has very fair prices. I would highly recommend him!

    Wonder about all the five star ratings? Don't. They're all deserved. Denis refinished an aging teak credenza, beloved and well worn, and made it as new. He is a true artist and a fine person in the bargain. I can not recommend Denis too highly. As an aside, my location is no longer Valrico but downtown St. Pete. Denis, THANKS!

    We can't say enough about our experience with Denis's Furniture Repair. We have been searching for someone skilled enough to repair extensive damage done to our double front doors for more than one year. The doors are wood with lead glass inserts. Our dog chewed a good deal of the molding and framing as well as put deep gouges on the inside of the doors. Denis replaced all of the interior molding, as well as re-stained, resurfaced and varnished the inside and outside of both doors. This required several days of back and forth to allow for the coats of stain and varnish to dry. Denis and his assistant were extremely diligent in getting the work done timely, professionally and beautifully. As far as communication, professionalism and fairness of price he gets an A!! Most importantly, our doors look brand new and we are so very pleased with his work. Additionally, he is also a skilled furniture restorer, very talented artisan, carpenter, does extensive plaster work and does gorgeous custom painting of murals. We would certainly recommend his services.

  • *****

    I can't say enough good about Denis and his talent. Last week I called about my prized piece; a 1952 Eames Lounge Chair whose back separated from the seat while I was sitting in it. Apparently the victim of a previous owner's shabby repair, I was thinking this was it. My office anchor was now heading to the boneyard. I found Denis online, called him, explained the situation. He was over within a week to survey the situation, gave me a quote and took the chair. In less than week I had it back in my office, stronger than ever. You cannot see where the repair is in any way. It's more solid than when I first obtained it and just thought it was a creaky older piece. Thank you Denis! Worth every $ spent.

  • *****

    Denis is amazing. His craftsmanship is beyond reproach. We had a china hutch repaired by him that had been damaged by one of our cats urinating on it. It was a very expensive china hutch and we truly thought we would have to just get rid of our whole dining room set. Denis repaired the damage to the hutch and I can honestly say, had I not known the damage that was on this hutch, I would never have been able to believe this hutch was ever damaged when he got done with. It looked like a new piece of furniture. Amazing work. HIGHLY recommend him and his service. Quality, high craftsmanship and dependable, timely service. 10 stars

    Denis just repaired a solid wood chair that was damaged in a move. The chair looks perfect !!!! You would never know it was damaged.

  • *****

    Denis completed a job for us that I was having trouble finding someone to do. We have vintage Ficks Reed wicker chairs which sit flat on the floor with no toe room. As a result, when people go to sit in the chair, they kick the wicker which damages the chair. I ordered bun feet and he built “platforms” to secure the feet to. They look amazing! The damaged wicker still needs to be repaired. That is the next step and hopefully the last time for that!

    Dennis refinished the top of my solid rosewood dining table that was purchased in Japan. He came to my home, inspected the table and gave me a detailed account of how he would restore my table to its’ original condition. He gave an estimate of cost and how long it would take to do the job. Denis picked the table up and returned in three days with the table. It was stripped, sanded, stained and sealed with a clear finish. He did an excellent job and I would not hesitate to recommend him for your fine furniture. His service is high quality but comes at a cost that reflects the quality of his workmanship!

  • *****

    I was very impressed with the good communication and rapid attention to our furniture repair requirement. Denis came to our residence, performed a perfect repair that is undetectable and left all within an hour. Very highly recommended.

  • *****

    Would definitely recommend. Did a great job on my dining room table top and entertainment center - 15 years old and look like new.

  • *****

    Would definitely recommend Denis. Did a fabulous job on our cabinet. Very nice man.

  • *****

    A heavy teak dining table came from the online maker with serious design flaws that made it almost useless. After trying a couple of places in St. Petersburg who declined the job, found Denis on Google. He replied quickly to an online request, explaining he was booked, but would come back to us with a month. Two weeks later, he called and arranged to take a look the next day--a Saturday! He arrived with his truck, inspected the piece, explained how he could fix it, gave a price, and loaded the table onto his truck (with my feeble help). Tuesday, the table was back, fully repaired--so square and solid you could dance on it! Invoice, as estimated. If you need any work on a piece of furniture, call Denis!

    We had a pine dining table which we had painted about 2 years ago due to chips in the original finish. The individual who painted it did a horrible job. The knots in the pine actually bled through the off white paint. It looked worse that before we had it painted. We started looking for a new dining set but couldn't find anything of the same quality as what we have. ENTER DENIS!!! He picked up a leaf for the table to ascertain if he could strip the paint to the bare wood. Fortunately, with some hard work, he was able to get it back to its original state. He then picked up the table. Within 4 days (!!!), he had the work completed. The result was spectacular- better than when it was delivered from Burdines Furniture Gallery back in 2002!! The cost was a little higher than we anticipated, but the finished product was well worth the extra expenditure. We would highly recommend his services to anyone needing furniture restoration.

    I had four teak dining room chairs repaired and reinforced by Denis.
    He returned my call within a day to get an idea of what I was hoping he would do. Within a couple of days he came to the house, quoted a price and took them to his shop. He repaired the chairs professionally and quickly.
    His work is top notch. They look wonderful. All 4 are very stable.
    He deserves 6 stars!
    Working with Denis was “Easy Peezy”. I recommend him to everyone.

    Look no further for someone to repair your furniture! Denis did an excellent job on repairing, seven of twelve, broken legs on my stacking tables. They were broken during a recent move and now the tables look like new again. He is professional, kind and finished in a timely manner. I will highly recommend Denis to my clients and friends! I am so pleased, thank you, Denis!

    Denis did an excellent job refinishing two of my wife's heirloom tables - the best Christmas present that I could give her. Excellent workmanship and reasonable pricing. I would highly recommend Denis to anyone in need of his services.

    Dennis came to our home to repair a hole in a hand painted credenza. He performed magic. The hole is gone and the repaired area is indistinguishable from the remainder of the piece. Excellent work!

  • *****

    Denis performs high quality work and is a true craftsman. He is extraordinarily honest and is only satisfied when his customer is happy. I have multiple heirloom pieces of teak furniture from the 60’s that needed restoring and I am so glad to have found Denis. He came and picked up the furniture and delivered it right on time as promised. All of the pieces he restored have never looked better. The teak desk was in particularly bad condition and he miraculously made it look new. All of the furniture belonged to my parents and has a lot of sentimental value, so I was a little worried about handing it over to someone I didn’t know. After meeting Dennis and seeing the work he does I trust him completely! He’s amazing and I will definitely be calling him in the future for other furniture that needs restoration. Denis is highly recommended!

    This is the second time Dennis has repaired chairs for our home. He is truly a master at his craft and a very professional businessman. He explains very clearly what he is going to do and completes the repair in a timely manner. We highly recommend Dennis for all wood working repairs!!
    Thank you Dennis!

    My grandmother's early 1920's desk converted from a spinet piano was in terrible disrepair. I had waited for years to find the right person to restore my grandmother's legacy. It was worth the wait. Denis Temali did an incredible job! The desk is more beautiful than I could have imagined, sturdy and artfully redone. It will be my legacy to my daughter.

  • *****

    I had some antique mirrors that used to belong to my late parents. We believe they were from 1935, and they certainly showed their age, not only in their color but with some broken areas on the fancy frame. Not only did Denis repair the frames as needed, but he consulted with us to make sure he'd make them the perfect color for where they would be placed. They are back in our home and look fabulous. I highly recommended this talented man to anyone who needs help with antiques or special areas in your home. He's amazing!!

  • *****

    Denis' reviews were excellent and I had him look at an Asian hand made table that the movers damaged and tried to cover up. Denis had a good idea what needed to be done and took the table for extensive repairs. A few days later, he showed pics of what the movers tried to do to cover up the damage. About a week later, he brings the table in and it was fantastic! I couldn't believe how sturdy it was and how he refinished it to look even better than the original version.
    I highly recommend Denis as his work is very thorough and if you have an expensive piece of furniture, you want it done right.

  • *****

    Denis is professional and kind. He always arrived on time and had helpful suggestions. He refinished seven pieces of furniture for us. We are delighted with the outcome. He exceeded our expectations. We plan to use his services again. So grateful he shares his gift! Charlene Einsel & Jerry Stadler - Clearwater, Florida

    I work for a custom furniture manufacturer in North Carolina. We built and shipped a dresser to a client in St. Petersburg. When the dresser arrived to our client it was damaged, one of the corners was smashed. We called Denis and he handled the repair from start to finish with our client. He fixed the dresser so it looked brand new! I would highly recommend Denis and his services.

  • *****

    Denis repaired and restored our 30 year old coffee table/chest and as others have noted, his work is done timely and professionally. We are very pleased with the result and plan to have other cherished family inherited items restored as well.

  • *****

    Denis is the BEST! He came to my house looked at the two nightstands that belonged to my mother in law (who passed away 29 years ago) that can give you and idea how old the nightstand are. He gave me a quote and three days later he surprised me with these beautifully refinished pieces. He is very professional, honest and an artist.

  • *****

    When my wood dining room arm chair got knocked over and the arm broke in 2 places, I had no idea who to call. I found Denis on Google with excellent reviews and am pleased to say he did a fantastic job fixing it!! He was very professional and courteous. I will definitely contact him when I decide to get the set refinished. Thank you Denis!

  • *****

    Our 100 plus year old dresser had been severely neglected over the years. We happened upon Denis’s Furniture Repair & Restoration and we’re stunned at the finished product. Denis is truly an artist who can transform a piece of furniture to it’s original beauty. I was so pleased that I had to fight back tears. I highly recommend Denis for any repairs or renovation needs you have. I’d give him 6 stars if I could.

  • *****

    I called Denis about repairing my moms old bedroom set that included a headboard, footboard, chest, vanity, bench, nightstand and table. He came to my house and looked it over and gave me a price. At the time he was three weeks out. So I called him back in three weeks and he scheduled to come pickup my items. We went over all the pieces and what needed to be done. He was finished in a week and the pieces are absolutely beautiful. He did an excellent job. You can’t even tell that the cat used the post on the footboard as a scratching post. The nightstand is beautiful. It was so dried out from someone placing a wet glass on the table without a coaster. You can’t even tell there was any damage. My foyer table was nicked by a wheelchair and he did such a fabulous job repairing that as well. You can’t tell that the table had so many scratches and nicks in the wood.

    I would highly recommend Denis for any wood furniture repair. He will make it look like new furniture again. He is also very kind to work with and he answers all your questions. Thank you Denis. You made me a very happy customer.

    Denis recently restored and brought back to life a very sentimental secretary desk used by by mother for more than 75 years. It needed considerable work and repair and I was delighted that it is now beautifully new again! He is a true craftsman who pays attention to detail and quality. I recommend Denis for any restoration piece for wonderful results!

    I have an antique vanity that is a family heirloom, It was dried out with chipped veneer and it had been in a flood. Denis brought it back to life and it looks better now than it ever has. You cannot see where the veneer was repaired. Denis came to the house, picked up the vanity and then returned it. Denis completed the work in less than a week. I recommend Denis highly, he does quality work.

  • *****

    Denis restored and refinished 2 European deck chairs on my 60ft Motor Yacht. He completely took the chairs apart, put them back together stronger and better than new and gave them a beautiful varnish finish. Highly recommended, very reliable and excellent craftmanship.

  • *****

    I am an interior designer. It is very challenging to find a talented furniture restorer that is an honest businessman and also takes pride his work. Denis completed a beautiful dining room table restoration for a client. He was prompt, professional and is extremely skilled. My client is exceptionally pleased, as am I. I will be happily contacting Denis for future projects!

  • *****

    Denis restored a dining room table and 6 chairs that had been in the family for many years and were showing their age. He was prompt, the price was fair, and the work was exceptional. We were extremely pleased. They looked brand new yet matched the china cabinet and sideboard perfectly. Denis is highly skilled and takes great pride in his work. The results are proof.

  • *****

    My husband scratched up our brand new dining table within days of getting it. Denis came over and within an hour fixed it better than before. He was so polite and so efficient. He clearly takes pride in his work, which is a rarity nowadays. I must also say that my husband originally called another furniture restoration company who after seeing the pics said they didn’t think they could fix it but instead recommended Denis. The fact that a competitor recommends Denis really speaks to his skill level!

  • *****

    I found Denis on line after reviewing many different businesses. He first refinished an old Swan rocking chair. He really did a fabulous job so I asked him to repaint and restore an old trunk. It really needed a lot of work! It came out beautiful. Denis is very responsive and timely. He comes to your home, carefully inspects the piece, gives you a price and takes the furniture with him. It is clear that he enjoys his work and takes a lot of pride in quality finishing. I highly recommend Denis for your furniture repair and/or restoration.

  • *****

    We found Denis on a Google search for repair and restoration of some desks in our South Tampa law office. After contacting him, he made a trip to the office to take a look at the desks and determine what needed to be done to restore them. Denis was very accommodating and arranged to come to the office on a Saturday morning to refinish the desks. They turned are just beautiful and the desks now look brand new!! It was a very good experience working with Denis and we would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to restore and/or refinish furniture.

    Thank you Denis.

    Denis was given the task of repainting our living room furniture, and make it look like new. He did a better job than that. He matched the paint perfectly, and distressed the furniture better than it was done originally. As an aside, he also repaired a broken leg on a dining chair. It was done so well you could not tell which leg had been broken. We would heartily recommend Denis for his professionalism, his artistic expertise, and his passion for his work.

    My table looks brand new! Denis exceeded my expectations by removing dings and scratches caused by two moves and our grandsons toy cars. Excellent job!

    I would like to give Denis a 5 star review on my recent experience. I purchased a marble top table and 4 chairs from a consignment shop. The set is extremely good quality. It is a beautiful set however the chairs needed work done where the metal parts were worn from past use. I wanted them refinished to their original color and texture. Denis picked up my chairs and within 2 days I had them back and they were exactly what I wanted. He was very polite and and extremely confident that he could complete the project to my liking. I see he is a true professional and cares about making his clients pleased with his work. I totally recommend his services and will call on him again if needed. Thank you Denis for your time and effort again with my chairs. I appreciate you!

    My antique rope bed needed some TLC. I didn't know anyone ... so I goggled furniture repair in my area, read reviews and went with my gut. I was completely over joyed with Denis, He returned my phone call, we made an appointment, he showed up, quoted me a fair price, and took my bed for repairs. My bed is like new and I won't hesitate to use Denis again and not afraid to tell others about his quality of work. Thank you again Denis for such a wonderful job.

    Fast, reasonably price and beautiful work.

    We could not be more pleased with the service we received from Denis' Furniture Repair & Restoration. He took my grandmother's 1930's solid oak table and chairs and completely restored them to their former glory. The pride he takes in his work is evident in how solid the chairs are now, the detail taken in removing the old, gross finish and the softness and sheen in the new finish. Truly an artist. It was a joy.to interact with him as well, always punctual and clearly communicated. We will be recommending him and using him again!!!

    Denis's has so far restored two pieces of 1800's furniture for me and my husband. The dining room table was from the Croft Plantation in Greenville South Carolina. The table after Denis's restored it is just beautiful and we are very happy with it. The antique dresser he just restored is also just as beautiful. Would recommend him to refinish or restore any furniture. Thanks, Lynn McNeill

  • *****

    Excellent company! I had a teak table with water damage-Denis came to the house, gave me a price and took table that day. When it was returned I had a new table at a great price. He understands the value of being on time, and delivering what he promises. Outstanding workmanship at a great value. I would definitely use his services again!

  • *****

    It was a pleasure working with Denis- honest, timely and a great craftsman. He restored a water damaged teak dining room table-arrived at my home on time, gave me an estimate and took the table that day. As promised, my table returned on time and beautiful. Excellent value, honest businessman and skilled craftsman-what more could you want? I would definitely use his services again.

  • *****

    We have a beautiful teak dining room table that had years of wear, including burn marks and glass stains that could no longer be removed with steel wool or rubbed out with teak oil. Denis sanded, stained and sealed the table. It looks like it did 45 years ago when we bought it. The table is beautiful. Denis took great care to make certain we were happy with his work. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a true craftsman.

  • *****

    Denis's took our 50 plus year old Lane hope chest that had been in the garage and abused for years by 2 kids that used it for a bench. When Denis brought a back it looked like it did when I bought it for my to be wife. They did a great job and at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend them for any restoration project.

  • *****

    Denis and his day brought an abused 75 year old dining room set back to life. Amazing work.

  • *****

    Denis has an incredible talent of repairing furniture & such. 2 yrs ago he repaired my front door from a dog that clawed at it.
    Now I had him repair my Mother's antique deacons bench,that we thought was ruined by the movers. Would highly recommend him to fix anything that you think is not fixable!!

  • *****

    Denis and his partner are very professional and straightforward.
    They inspected our furniture that was damaged by movers and provided us with a fair and clear estimate. We will not hesitate to call them when our settlement closes

  • *****

    Denis is amazing! I needed someone to do a total restoration on a very old broken antique buffet table with alot of sentimental value to me. He traveled 45 minutes away to my home, told me not to worry that he could do all the needed repairs and he definitely was true to his word!!
    Very reasonably priced, very professional, trustworthy, and just an overall nice person!
    I highly recommend him and definitely would use his services in the future!

    We were extremely pleased with the great job Denis did in refinishing the table edges and arms of our kitchen dinette set. He was prompt, personable and very skilled. The set looks brand-new again. We would certainly recommend him to anyone. It was a pleasure to meet him.

    If you are looking for a top-notch job Denis is the person you need to contact. Had a white rattan dining table with chairs that wanted a color change to a dark walnut. The set looks amazing is like having a new dining table. He even changed the upholstery of the chairs for a reasonable price. I highly recommend Denis for his quality workmanship.

  • *****

    My coffee table was dropped during a recent move. I called Denis who came to the house to give me an estimate . The repair was scheduled within a week. Denis was timely,professional, and assured me he could repair my tables and I would never know they had been damaged. I cannot say enough about this guy, what an artist!!! I am absolutely thrilled.the table looks like showroom perfection. Marsha

  • *****

    Denis is not only quite knowledgeable and personable, he is also a master at his craft. He refurbished a child's table and chair set that my father used as a child. It was 80 years old. When Denis was finished with the pieces, they looked as good as I can imagine they did when new, 80 years ago.
    Although he is far from us in Brandon, his craftsman work is well worth it.
    We look forward to using his skills for more pieces we own.
    Thanks, Denis!

  • *****

    You can trust your precious family heirloom furniture to Denis. He matched color and finish perfectly. Furniture was handled with great care.

  • *****

    Denis refinished the arm of my dining room chair after my Malipoo puppy had fun chewing on it.
    It now looks like new & there is no evidence that Darcy had used it as a teething device.
    Denis was excellent to work with & I highly recommend him.

  • *****

    I want to add another positive review to all the other reviews which applaud the excellent work. We have a very large two piece large mahogany china closet which was damaged in a move. Denis was the only one who would come out and look at it before quoting after requesting pictures. He said we would not know it had been repaired afterwards. He was correct. If we did not know where the damage occurred, we would not know from the repair/finish. You probably will find him more expensive than others for this work, but in our case we felt the higher cost was worth it.

  • *****

    Denis is unbelieveable. He restored two giant mirrors that I thought I would have to throw away. He made them more beautiful than they were originally. A nice man and a pleasure to do business with. Fast turn around time. Don't hesitate to use him

    Denis's skills are far superior to any any wood craftsman that I have ever used . As a owner of antique asian' Victorian thru Mid Century Modern I would trust him to refresh, repair,or restore any of them. He truly a wood artist! It took days not weeks, and he even came to me to give advice, anyone can give 5 stars Denis truly earned them! Frank Dunedin

  • *****

    So very happy with Denis' work on our antique mahogany buffet that got damaged in our move. He responded immediately to our request for a bid. He came to our home and was most pleasant, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. The piece is extremely heavy so Denis was able to repair it right in our home. The buffet looks great, with the molding that was missing replaced to match perfectly, scratches gone, a broken door that works great now, and the piece no longer rocks on the floor. Denis was very responsive, coming out soon after we arranged for his services and was always ensuring that he was fulfilling our needs. I would use Denis' services again whenever needed and would highly recommend him.

  • *****

    Denis took a beaten up table with scratches, chips and stains and made it look brand new. Well worth the price to keep my table! Very quick turnaround too. I recommend and would use again.

  • *****

    My wife and I recently purchased a furnished condo in Sand Key. The dining room table was ebony and did not match the chairs. We wanted to have the table stripped and re-stained. Being from NY and new to the area, we were skeptical with who to entrust this large project to. We contacted Denis, he explained the process and we immediately realized that we made the right choice. He was professional, timely and reasonably priced. The end result...the table was amazing! It was exactly like we envisioned it and it looked brand new. If you ever need furniture refinished or repaired, save your time and energy and use Denis for your needs. He is meticulous and he is not satisfied unless you are.

  • *****

    Repaired a broken cross rail on a cherry bed. I don't know hoe he did it but it looks like new. Great Job! Highly recommend him.

  • *****

    My very traditional cherry dresser and chest were beautifully updated to coordinate with my new coastal white bed and night stand. Denis left the tops in the natural cherry. This completely "popped" both pieces. They are truly eye-catching and beautifully done. I know I have other pieces which will be refinished in the future and there is no question who will do the work! What a great job done by a great professional!

    I have a very nice cherry table that was damaged when I moved to St.Pete. It looked awful with big chip in it, the sides were scraped and the top was gouged in many places. I never thought it would look nice again. Denis took the table and the leaves and when he brought them back I didn't think it was the same table. I can't tell where any of the damage was. Amazing! He does great work, shows up at the when he says he will and has very fair prices. I would highly recommend him!

    2 Antique Tables restored beautifully! One was from my mother-in-law and one was my grandmother. Denis- your workmanship is terrific. And your timing couldn't be better- Picked them up on Monday, Delivered on Thursday! Thanks you Denis! Anne S.

    Denis repaired two antique pieces for us. My mother's cherry buffet was damaged in Hurricane Irma with water damage from sitting in water when our roof blew off. The base swelled and the joints separated. My wife's grandmother's dining room chair back broke right at the seat and we thought it might be irreparable. Denis picked up our chair and said he could do the buffet restoration at our home. The work was perfect. You would never know the chair had been broken and the buffet looks beautiful again. Price was fair too. Thanks Denis.

    We had custom cabinets installed a few years back but they were never properly sealed. Water washed the stain off so they looked horrible. Didn't want to completely redo all the cabinets just needed the ones messed up fixed. Only found one person who could confidently repair them. I am extremely impressed and happy. Nice guy, professional. Shows up on time, cleans up. Definitely talented. Contact Denis Temali 727-504-4657 at clearwaterfurnitureresto

    Denis's Furniture Repair and Restoration is fabulous! I have my great-grandmothers antique glider rocking chair which, unfortunately, got broken during the move. When I called Denis, he was in my area and came to our condo in 10 minutes, no joke. He took the chair to his shop and brought it back to me two days later! I couldn't tell where the break in the rung or side scratches had been, Denis is that amazingly gifted.

    Denis is amazing! He truly takes furniture repair and re-finishing to an art form. We use him for all of our design clients and he is always professional. Would highly recommend!

    I called Denis after houseguests inadvertently ruined the finish on two brand new end tables. In just over a week, he had the tables looking brand new again - and at a fraction of the cost of replacing even one! He is a true artist, and a pleasure to do business with. Thank you Denis!

    I contacted Denis to refinish a small writing desk that belongs to my Mother in Clearwater and has been in our family for many years. The desk had water damage from the hurricane which ruined the finish. It also had a piece of veneer missing from the front drawer. Denis did an amazing job restoring the desk to it's original beauty. My Mother is thrilled with his work and the desk looks beautiful! Denis finished the project and delivered the desk promptly and as promised. He is very professional and very skilled in his work. I would definitely contact Denis again for furniture refinishing and I highly recommend him. Thank you Denis!

    I called Denis in despair, in tears, I had set a foam piece on top of my cherry dining table, on that clean crystal I had washed. Removing the cover the rings from the glasses transferred the foam into rings on the table. I told him I ruined my table. He came out within one day, with no charge to take a look, and told me that he could repair it it, and it would look new----I said I will probably never be able to pay for it, but he was very reasonable. He brought my table back to me in two weeks!! I highly recommend him and I know I will be using him again---he told me in life those are fixable things---and he is so right!! I think he is professional, and would suggest him to anyone!! Thank you Denis, and your Dad too!!!

    Denis of Denis' Repair, Refinishing & Restoration is a highly skilled artisan and a perfectionist. His skills in refinishing and refurburshing wood furniture are truly exceptional. Denis refinished my black dining table and Hollywood Regency dining chairs that are black with gold detailing. The results were extraordinary. I am so pleased with them. He also restored a vintage Henredon pecan coffee table that had a few veneer losses and an old cigarette burn on the surface. It now looks perfect--with no evidence that any work was done to it. I plan to call upon Denis for a couple of other jobs in the future. His work is exceptional.

    Wonder about all the five star ratings? Don't. They're all deserved. Denis refinished an aging teak credenza, beloved and well worn, and made it as new.

    Our grandson kicked a 5 inch diameter hole in the curved side of our antique kidney desk. II had previously used a long-established firm to repair damaged furniture, but the owner had retired. When I showed him pictures of the damage, he said it was beyond the skill of the company he usually recommended. Then I found Denis, who said he could fix it. He was prompt in estimating the job, which was quite reasonable. He returned with the finished piece sooner than he had proposed, and it was like new!!! both outside and inside. you can look at it, and knock on it, and cannot tell if it wasn't original. Bravo Denis!

    Denis did an excellent repair on an antique settee that movers had made a mess of. It is now beautiful and once more functional. Highly recommend Denis's work.

    Denis made needed repairs to my Mom's antique oak secretary cabinet, and did so in a timely and professional manner. He inspected the piece carefully before giving me a price, and then picked it up and delivered it. He completed the job as quoted, and I am quite pleased with his work. I would highly recommend him.

    Denis just redid a kitchen table and chairs for me. I had several estimates and am happy I selected him. He promised a "factory finish" and he delivered. He is very professional and concerned about making his customer happy. Would definitely recommend him. When he delivered the table and chairs I gave him 4 other chairs to do.

    Denis is the ultimate professional. He knows what to do and how long it will take. After having my furniture in a Pods storage unit for three years it was badly damaged. He was able to repair my furniture back to its original beauty. Every thing he touched looks new again. I couldn't have asked for more. His prices are very reasonable and I would highly recommend him.

    Denis did an amazing job. I had my furniture in storage for 3 years and when it was delivered it was ruined. I had several very expensive pieces and he brought them back to life. They look as beautiful now as they did when I bought them. His pricing was very fair and his work was top rate. Highly recommend.

    Professional with good work ethics. Will use him again. Great job to saving my pieces that were damaged in my move

    Denis just refurbished an old buffet that was my grandparents. He did a great job and was professional and very prompt, I would recommend him for any type of job.

    I found Denis online and contacted him regarding restoration of an old antique dresser that had been passed down to me. The piece was generally faded and had numerous watermarks and signs of careless unnatural wear and tear. All I can say is WOW! Denis did a tremendous job restoring the piece and bringing back its original character and charm. Denis was professional in his approach, grasped exactly what we were looking to have done, and far exceeded our expectations. I would not hesitate to call on him again as he is definitely an artist at his craft.

    Denis was so professional right from the start and he exceeded my expectations. I had a very large piece that had a curved front damaged in our move. He repaired the curve, the bottom, and the groove for the glass doors. You cannot tell the piece was ever damaged and it only took 1 week. He is awesome and his work speaks for itself.

    Thank you Denis for doing an excellent job refinishing my dining room table and chairs. I brought a set of scan design style chairs and dining table home from my parents house. the set had been in constant use for 50 years and was discolored and faded. Denis managed to strip, sand and stain all pieces so the matched again. It is now a beautiful show piece.

    Wow.....our antique dining table was damaged from a water leak & scratched from use....We called Denis & he was very prompt giving us exact estimate and timeline on pick up delivery. The table came back gorgeous & we are now scheduling to have the other dining pieces refurbished because of his quality craftsmanship !!
    Couldn't be happier with the results!!

    Dennis did an outstanding job on the repair and refinishing of our double front entry doors with etched glass. He is the consummate professional, very reliable, fairly priced and extremely knowledgeable with any woodworking, plastering and servicing of fine furniture. He is extremely conscientious and holds quality control of paramount concern.

    I would absolutely recommend Denis for any and all furniture repair ... Denis was punctual, professional and did a wonderful job refinishing two wooden tables.

    Dennis is Amazing! First he refinished our 14 year old kitchen and bar cabinets to make them look brand new! Then he was able to add a wood vent to a door to resolve an air flow situation. He has also repaired dry wall and restained a mirror and vanity in a bathroom to compliment the updated decor. I cant say enough great things about his honesty, timelines and talent. I would reccomend him to anyone! Thanks Dennis:)

    Denis just refinished a kitchen table top for me. The table now looks even better than when I first bought it. Not only does he do amazing work, he is very professional and a pleasure to work with. He went out of his way to come on a Saturday to make it more convenient for me, to pick the table top up and deliver it when finished again on a Saturday. I would highly recommend his services.

    Denis was a find. My mother's Stickley hutch is over 60 years old and due to a poor decision on our part we let a consignment shop take it. They did not cover it coming or going, then they stored it for a week in an unaircondition facility. Horrors when I saw it but Denis put it back together. We will never allow it out of our sight again. We just have to replace the keyhole which the consignment shop lost or plucked out. We had Denis due a coffee table and a small table which all are over 60 years old. Denis does exceptional work.

    I cannot speak highly enough about Denis and his work! He recently did a dining room table and four chairs for me and I am absolutely thrilled with the result! He is professional, kind, skilled and I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family. Thanks again, Denis!! I love my new table and chairs.

    What a stroke of luck to find Denis. He's a fine craftsman who was attentive to my concerns about minuscle knicks and chips in my new kitchen cabinets. His prompt response and service were much appreciated. CGL

    To Whom it may Concern,

    Recently we moved from Chicago to Florida with the majority of our furniture.

    Unfortunately a cherrywood wine cooler had a deep chip gouge and my lateral file cabinet had a deep scratch.

    Dennis Temali came in and restored both pieces to new looking status. His quality of artistic refinishing is unmatched and I would highly recommend him.

    Feel free to contact me through Dennis if you like.
