If I could give more than 5 stars I would! They were so easy to work with. The quality of the work and the attention to detail is outstanding! I would highly recommend their services.

Our family has a dining room table and chairs from the 1880s, burl mahogany. Three of the chairs needed extensive repairs - split backs, broken arm and joints. John Cather had refinished the table extensions and did a great job on those. After bringing the chairs to John we discussed the process and the value that these chairs possessed to us - so the repair and reconstruction process started. In a timely manner thee chairs came back to us - they have been restored to their original beauty - thanks to John and his sons. I know that anyone that needs furniture repair, restoration or refinishing would be elated with what Joh Cather and his family business can do - give them the opportunity and you will be 100% satisfied - and I made some friends in the process too!

Cather's Furniture Service is awesome! They fixed my wife's late grandmother's chair with great detail and skill! John was able to get it done before Thanksgiving which made my wife and mother-in-law's holiday! Great work and speedy service. I highly recommend Cather's services for any Furniture repair needs.

I am over the moon! Better than I could imagine! My table and chairs are beautiful and smooth as silk! The quality is perfect!

John did an amazing job breathing new life into our antique dining room table. He completely refinished the piece, including striping and replacing the edging. He invited us to the workshop throughout the process to pick finishes and make sure we were happy. A great experience!

John Cather & crew did a great job refinishing my early- to mid-20th century family heirlooms. And not just refinishing - fixing the broken tray in the Lane cedar chest, removing Contac paper and refinishing bureau drawers ... my son, who played with the old school desk as a child, didn't even recognize it; it looks brand new. Thanks, Cathers!

Love these guys. Always a great job refinishing. Very receptive to tight deadlines when they can. Mr. Cather is a hoot to chat with!

Great work

Thanks John and James for making my old breakfront a beautiful chest, just like I wanted. Love that father and son are working together!

Cather's does fantastic work! He can take an old beat up piece of furniture and make it look like new or take a family airlume and bring it back to life! He is a true artist of his craft! He also a good guy and very friendly! I highly recommend him! Give him a call, you won't be sorry!

John Cather is so very talented and skilled, more of an artist with wood! He is so proud of his work and obviously enjoys transforming an old piece of wood/furniture into a masterpiece. He did a beautiful job on an old mantle I bought...turned it into a priceless antique! He worked quickly and was very accommodating.

Exceptional quality and service! I wouldnt recommend any other place, Johns work is the best Ive ever seen. He took a broken piece and made it look as if it had never left the showroom. Ill never go anywhere else!

John and James Cather took in our sideboard and kitchen table and chairs to refinish after years of use and probably a bit of abuse. The process took awhile, but they are very busy these days and I knew that from the start. They returned the sideboard first and a couple of weeks later the table and chairs.
The results are simply stunning. I am overjoyed at how beautiful these items now look in my home. I cant say enough good things about how great the Cathers treated us and our furniture. You will not be disappointed if you choose to use Cathers Furniture Service.

I took a dining room chair in for repair and he had a new part made that matched exactly. I highly recommend their work.

Good guys with great skills.

I bought some vintage wooden doors off of Etsy (apparently from India) because I loved the intricate wood carving detail in the center of each one. Unfortunately the trims didn't match and I wanted to use them for sliding barn doors. That's when I reached out to John Cather and family. He discovered that the doors were made of different wood so the only way to get the trims to match is to stain the lighter one darker. He did an incredible job matching them up and preserving the essence of the doors which I love so much. They really care about their craft and it shows. Would highly recommend.

I have had my grandmothers petite rocker for 30 years but it wasn’t in good condition. The wood was in good shape but needed freshening up. We got it back today and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Better than I expected!

Good guys with great skills.

Just got my oak table and six chairs back and OMG what a transformation. John did an amazing job. I am thrilled with the new look. The set is about 20 years old, John has made it look brand new. I wanted it painted black and I can say the workmanship and finish is beyond what I could imagine. I can't wait to get it moved to my new house and show it off to friends and family. I highly recommend the Cathers'. Such wonderful, kind people.

I took a 35-year-old wooden rocking horse to Cather's for repairs in anticipation of delivering it to my son for use by my young granddaughter. Chris Cather did wonderful work - the horse looked great and the job was completed on time and on budget. Chris did everything he said he would and then some. A pleasure to work with.

I have known John Cather and worked with him several time through the years...I've always found him to be a pleasure to work with... honest in his business dealings. His skills at furniture restoration are second to none. His rates are fare and honestly quoted. He is 'old school' and the business has been in existence for decades (started by his father). Cather's Furniture Service comes highly recommended.
