Fendon’s experienced craftspeople can bring new life to your cherished wood, upholstered, and antique furniture. After learning and teaching himself the lost art of custom furniture reupholstery over 50 years ago, Jerry Fendon still oversees our expert furniture restoration team today. Our talented team of furniture artisans has nearly 100 years of combined furniture reupholstery, wood refinishing and antique furniture restoration experience.

Regardless of whether you have a favorite but worn-out piece of wood furniture, a family heirloom, or an antique piece of wood furniture, more than likely, we can restore it to its original beauty. We’ve seen the whole range of wood furniture restoration projects from the antique hall storage bench which literally came in pieces to furniture that was in fine shape, but the owner just wanted to change the color of the finish.

Our master wood refinisher and restoration craftsman, Ramon Hernandez, has over 20 years experience. His ingenuity in repairing, restoring, and refinishing wood furniture is remarkable. Together with Jerry Fendon’s years of experience, they form a remarkable wood furniture and restoration team. Fendon’s never cuts corners when working on your cherished wood furniture and furniture antiques.

When we refinish your wood furniture, we completely strip off the old finish and then re-glue and re-dowel any wood joints that are not completely sound. We then prepare the wood for new stain or paint per your preferences and go through a multi-step finishing process. We make sure the hardware works as well as it possibly can (old or antique hardware doesn’t work like some of today’s new hardware) then prepare it for delivery to your home, vacation home, or condominium.

Whether you have a favorite bedroom or dining room set, cocktail and end table, or a family heirloom or antique piece of wood furniture, we can probably restore it to its original beauty. Since we do no obligation free estimates between Lone Pine and Lee Vining including Bishop and Mammoth Lakes, there’s no risk and no cost to you to find out if we can bring new life to your favorite pieces of wood furniture. We also do estimates from digital photos via email for our Southern California second homeowners who own vacation homes in Lone Pine, Mammoth Lakes, June Lake, and throughout the Eastern Sierra. Give us a call or send us an email today to find out more.

Many reupholstery shops simply place some new padding or filling over the existing cover or old upholstery fabric and then apply the new upholstery fabric. Fendon’s has never taken this approach when reupholstering a customer’s furniture. When we reupholster your furniture, we strip it down to the frame and springs so we can check the condition of the frame, glue joints, the spring system, and the foundational padding. Any loose wood joints are re-glued and re-doweled as necessary to restore them to original soundness. Springs are re-tied, re-stretched, or replaced as necessary and any padding that is not in excellent condition is restored or replaced.

We then cut and sew new patterns and pieces for your furniture and apply them with time-tested methods only the most experienced furniture artisans understand. Patterns in fabric are matched, exposed wood is touched-up or refinished as needed, and cushioning materials are restored or replaced according to your (our customer’s) requirements.
