FAQs

What is the difference between refinishing and restoring furniture?

Refinishing typically involves removing the existing finish from a piece of furniture and applying a new finish. This process can include sanding, staining, painting, and sealing to give the piece a fresh look and protect it from damage.

Restoration, on the other hand, focuses on repairing and preserving the original appearance of the furniture. This might involve fixing structural issues, re-gluing joints, and touching up the existing finish to maintain the piece’s historical and aesthetic integrity.

What types of furniture can be refinished or restored?

At 4th Edition Design, we can refinish and restore a wide variety of furniture types, including:

  • Dining tables and chairs

  • Coffee tables

  • Dressers and chests of drawers

  • Desks and office furniture

  • Cabinets and shelving units

  • Antique pieces and family heirlooms

Our expert team is skilled in handling both modern and antique furniture, ensuring each piece is treated with the care and attention it deserves.

Why should I choose refinishing over buying new furniture?

Refinishing furniture offers several benefits over purchasing new pieces, such as:

  • Cost-Effective: Refinishing is often more affordable than buying new, high-quality furniture.

  • Environmental Impact: Refinishing reduces waste and conserves resources by repurposing existing furniture.

  • Preservation: It allows you to preserve valuable or sentimental pieces.

  • Customization: You can customize the finish, color, and hardware to suit your current tastes and decor.

How does the refinishing process work at 4th Edition Design?

Our refinishing process involves several steps to ensure the highest quality results:

  1. Initial Consultation: We start with a detailed discussion about your needs and preferences for the piece.

  2. Assessment and Preparation: The furniture is assessed for any structural issues that need repair. We then strip the old finish and prepare the surface.

  3. Sanding and Staining/Painting: The piece is sanded smooth, and the new finish is applied, whether it’s staining, painting, or another method.

  4. Sealing and Protecting: A protective sealant is applied to ensure durability and longevity.

  5. Final Inspection: The piece undergoes a final inspection to ensure it meets our quality standards before being returned to you.
