Furniture Repair Worth Doing Right

Furniture repair costs vary widely depending on the piece, the damage, and the materials involved. A small structural fix to a dining chair is a very different job than refinishing a water-damaged dresser or regluing a Victorian sideboard that's been separating at the joints for a decade. What matters most at the start is an honest look at what the piece actually needs. At Hundredfold Services, owner Dominique Willis evaluates each piece before any work begins, so you understand exactly what's being done and why. Don't replace a piece you love before calling (318) 348-4317 for a straight answer on whether it can be saved.

The repairs we handle range from wood surface patching and finish touch-ups to frame stabilization, joint regluing, and hardware replacement. What drives the scope of a job is usually condition, not age. A fifty-year-old piece with solid joinery and minor surface wear is often a faster fix than a newer piece built with staples and particleboard. We assess the grain, the original construction method, and the finish type before we recommend a path forward. If the piece isn't worth restoring, we'll say so plainly. If it is, we'll tell you what that looks like and how long it takes. Every job is different. Contact Hundredfold Services for an accurate estimate.

What We Fix

Furniture Damage We Handle Every Day

Most furniture damage looks worse than it is. The right repair changes that.

01

Wood Surface Repair

Scratches, gouges, water rings, and heat marks. We match the existing finish as closely as possible so the repair disappears into the piece rather than advertising itself.

02

Frame and Joint Repair

Loose legs, separating joints, and cracked rails are the most common structural failures we see. We clean the old adhesive out, reglue with the right compound for the wood type, and clamp properly so the joint holds long-term.

03

Hardware Replacement

Broken drawer pulls, worn hinges, and stripped screws are small problems that make a piece feel neglected. We source matching hardware or install upgrades that suit the piece's style.

04

Finish Restoration

Faded, flaking, or discolored finishes can often be refreshed without a full strip-and-refinish. We assess whether the existing finish can be revived or whether a fresh coat is the right call.

05

Leather and Upholstered Pieces

Leather repair requires a different set of materials than wood repair. We patch tears, address color loss, and stabilize cracking so the piece continues to hold up to daily use.

06

Outdoor and Patio Furniture

Lawn furniture takes a harder beating than anything inside. We repair broken welds on metal frames, re-tighten teak and hardwood joints, and address surface rust and finish wear from sun and moisture.

Our Process

How We Approach Each Repair

  1. 01

    Assess the Piece Honestly

    We look at the structure, the finish, and the materials before we recommend anything. If a repair isn't the right answer, we say so.

  2. 02

    Do the Work Properly

    No shortcuts on joint prep, no mismatched filler, no finish applied over a surface that isn't ready for it. The work holds because the process is right.

  3. 03

    Leave It Better Than We Found It

    The goal isn't a piece that looks repaired. It's a piece that looks like the damage never happened and holds up to the years ahead.

Owner-Operated

Dominique Willis Does the Work Personally

wood surface repair work, professional service in Austin, TX
Hundredfold Services is not a franchise, and Dominique Willis is not a dispatcher. When you call (318) 348-4317, you're talking to the person who will show up at your home and do the repair. That matters in this kind of work because furniture repair is detail work. It rewards patience and punishes rushing. Dominique evaluates each piece with the same care he'd apply to anything he'd want to last, whether it's a straight baseboard repair or a complex furniture restoration that requires matching a finish nobody's made in thirty years. You don't get passed to a crew you've never met. The accountability runs in one direction, and it starts with the owner.

When Repair Is the Smarter Choice

  1. 01

    The Piece Has Sentimental Value

    A dining table that belonged to your grandmother, a rocking chair your kids grew up with. Replacement can't replicate what those pieces carry. Repair can preserve it.

  2. 02

    The Construction Is Solid

    Older furniture built from hardwood with traditional joinery is usually worth repairing. It was made to last, and a good repair honors that. A lot of newer furniture wasn't built with the same intention.

  3. 03

    The Damage Is Surface-Level

    Scratches, minor finish wear, a loose joint, a broken hardware piece. These are not reasons to replace a piece. They're reasons to call us before you do.

What Goes Into a Good Wood Furniture Repair

Wood repair is more specific than most people expect. The type of wood matters: oak takes finish differently than walnut, and pine is soft enough that the wrong filler telegraphs itself immediately. The finish type matters too. A piece with an original lacquer finish needs a compatible product applied correctly, not whatever's available at the hardware store. We use the orbital sanding and finish matching process that produces results you can't see rather than repairs you can. When a joint needs regluing, we don't skip the cleanup step. Old adhesive left in the joint is the reason the new glue doesn't hold. The right way takes longer. It also lasts. For pieces that have seen water damage or significant structural stress, the repair process may also involve addressing what happened around the piece. If moisture got into the wall behind the furniture, drywall repair may be worth considering at the same visit rather than after the fact.

Furniture Repair Questions, Answered Plainly

How much does furniture repair typically cost?
The range is wide because the work varies so much. A single joint reglue on a dining chair is a short job. A full surface refinish on a large dresser with finish matching and multiple coats is a much longer one. What drives cost is complexity, condition, material type, and finish. We don't quote over the phone without seeing the piece. Contact Hundredfold Services and we'll give you an honest number after we understand what the job actually involves. Every job is different.
Can you repair a chair or table that's completely wobbly?
Usually yes. Wobbly chairs and tables are almost always a joint failure. The mortise-and-tenon or dowel connection has loosened over time, often because the original adhesive dried out. We disassemble the affected joints, clean out the old glue, and reglue with the correct adhesive for the wood species. Clamping time matters: rushed joints fail again. A properly done reglue on solid hardwood holds for decades.
What's the difference between furniture repair and furniture restoration?
Repair fixes a specific failure: a cracked leg, a scratched surface, a broken drawer slide. Restoration is broader and addresses the overall condition of the piece, including stripping and refinishing, structural work, and bringing a piece back to a finished state from significant deterioration. Both are worth doing depending on the piece. We assess which makes sense before recommending one over the other.
Can leather furniture be repaired, or does it have to be reupholstered?
Leather repair handles more than most people realize before they commit to reupholstering. Tears, punctures, color fading, and surface cracking can often be addressed with leather-specific compounds and dyes that match the original finish. Reupholstery is the right answer when the foam or internal structure has failed, not when the surface leather is the only issue. We look at the piece and tell you which situation you're actually in.
How do you match the finish on a wood repair so it doesn't show?
Finish matching is the hardest part of wood surface repair and the part that separates a professional result from a patch job. We work from the existing finish type, the wood species, and the color tone of the piece. On sanded surfaces, we feather the edges so the repaired area blends into the original grain. On finished surfaces, we apply product in thin layers and blend each coat before committing to the final sheen. It takes more time. It's also the only way to make it invisible.
Do you repair patio and outdoor furniture?
Yes. Outdoor furniture takes a different kind of damage than indoor pieces: UV degradation, moisture infiltration at the joints, surface rust on metal frames, and finish failure from repeated wet-dry cycles. We address each of those specifically. Teak and hardwood outdoor sets often just need joint work and a fresh oil or sealant. Metal frames with broken welds or significant rust need more involved repair. We assess the condition and tell you what makes sense.
