Jeff did a great job recently fixing the finish on a chair for me. It looks as good as new! He was very responsive, the price was reasonable, and the turn-around time was very quick.

I brought an old marble and alabaster statue that was my grandmother’s to Jeff to repair and piece back together for me. It turned out much better than I’d even hoped for! I highly recommend Jeff and his shop for his expert craftsmanship and how nice he is to work with.

Jeff provides top level service with quality results. He did a fantastic job in restoring a family heirloom with sentimental value. He was patient in working with me to make sure the result would be to my expectations and delivered above and beyond. The amount of time spent on the piece is reflective of his attention to detail and passion for his craft. A+ work.Included are before and after photos. Thanks Jeff!

We had a teak dining room chair that was severely damaged during a move--broken into many pieces. We brought the chair to Jeff and he restored it perfectly. We cant tell the difference between the chair he restored and the other five. Its that good. See the before and after photos. I honestly didnt believe that it could be done that well by anyone but Jeff made it beautiful again for life. I would recommend him to anyone needing furniture repair.

I went to this restoration company to get a vase restored. Unfortunately, the restoration cost would have exceeded the value of the vase. The owner commented that I did a pretty good job with the partial repairs that I had done thus far. We discussed other potential projects that I had that would be worth while. Even though I didnt get the vase repaired there, the owner spent a great deal of time discussing options with me. I had other items that I would like him to repair.

Jeff recently did a wood table broken leg repair for me. The sixty year old antique table had a “s” shaped leg that required a new wood attachment. Jeff did a fantastic job shaping the wood repair matching the leg’s details. He matched the original dark wood color perfectly and the attachment joint is invisible.I can’t say enough to recommend Jeff for his high level of attention to detail in a prompt time frame at a very reasonable price.Thanks Jeff for extending the life of my family heirloom.

I am very happy with the work that was done repairing handmade mugs that I inherited. Several of them were broken in shipment. Mr. Johnson was clear as to what the restoration would cost, how long the restoration would take, and what the mugs should look like in the end before he started working on them so I knew what to expect. He repaired them to the original quality, and even completed the restoration early!

Highly recommend this company to do your china repair work. We drove 4 hours to have a reputable person repair our very large blue and white bowl. Jeff had to show us where the repair was made on the bowl.

Jeff did an exceptional job on my glass art and I would highly recommend him. He provided quality work in a timely manner. And he is a great and honest person. His pricing was very reasonable and my wife and I are thrilled with the result. This will allow us to enjoy this art piece for years to come.

Jeff did an amazing job on my antique Korean chest. It was very old and falling apart. He was able to piece it back together while maintaining its quality. The wood was dry and spotted with flecks of non-original paint. He was able to get the paint off, then oiled and waxed it. Im just delighted that this treasured family piece can now be gifted to my nephew for a wedding present!

Review №14

Jeff was professional, friendly, and did a great job repairing an armoire door that a kid broke. He communicated well when the piece was finished and now you can’t even tell it ever broke. I will certainly use Jeff again for furniture work and any other services he offers.

Review №15

Jeff repaired a family heirloom, a spelter statue. One of the arms had been broken off. There was also a “rip” in the shoulder blade as well. He repaired both items.Jeff asked if I was pleased with the repair. Pleased? I AM OVER THE MOON!This repair is nothing short of miraculous. I could not be more pleased. I cannot recommend Jeff Johnson highly enough.

Review №16

My mother has an old dresser that had been in the family and been neglected. Trim was missing, it was dirty and beat up. Needless to say it was far away from tip-top condition. We took it to Jeff and within a week and a half, he had it looking almost brand new. Will highly recommend and will be bringing whatever else we need restored in the future to him as well. Included are before and finished photos.

Jeff took on the job of restoring my sleigh and reindeer, which my Dad made over 70 years ago. I wanted them preserved for my family, and he did an outstanding job. They are beautiful. Can’t wait to display them at Christmas time along with Santa.

We cannot recommend Jeff Johnson Restorations and Designs highly enough. Jeff took our damaged table top and repaired and restored it - honestly better than new. He is a true craftsman. For the quality of workmanship, you would expect to pay much more! You will not go wrong with Jeff!

Jeff repaired a porcelain family heirloom. It was a bad break but we had the pieces. Jeff was able to repair it like new! He was able to quote the repair with a picture by email. Great communication throughout the process.

Review №25

Jeff Johnson is such a great talent at restoring broken or impaired items. We recently moved and a number of art items were broken including broken arm from a statue - missing head to a sculpture - to a chipped Oriental vase - etc. My reaction upon seeing the repaired items....simply awesome! I could not detect where the items had been broken! We were so pleased with the outcome.I highly recommend Jeff. He provides quality service and at reasonable price. I have utilized his service for a number of years and he never disappoints.

Review №29

I have no idea how anyone is comfortable buying or working with this company since they absolutely refuse to answer their phones or return voice mail messages. I have been trying for days to talk with them about doing some work for me but they won’t call me back - must be nice to have so much work - got to wonder how long it will last.Update to my original post - after leaving this post I received an incredibly disrespectful phone call from Jeffs assistant. The assistant said that Jeff has closed my case after they read my review and wont be working with me. All I can say to that is WHO CARES, I wasnt planning on hiring them anyway. Its just amazing that they feel its appropriate to not answer their phones, not return voice mails and then get upset when someone calls them out on it.I was actually trying to give Jeff the benefit of the doubt by calling him as I was introduced to him by my moving company when they damaged some of my furniture. I was informed by my moving company that Jeff stated the damages were pre-existing which is completely untrue and despite Jeffs report the moving company paid out the full amount of my claim - I guess having pictures of the furniture undamaged before the move helped persuade them. I would highly recommend you not do business with Jeff clearly he has alot to learn.

Today we picked up our repaired formal dining room chair and Jeff not only fixed the broken arm, but worked on the entire chair so that it was much more sturdy. I sent pictures of the broken arm to several furniture restorers and he not only had the best price, but also great reviews. He did the work within a week. Very happy all the way around.

I highly recommend Jeff Johnson Restorations & Designs. I had a plaster hand print that my 22 year old daughter made for me for Mothers Day when she was in preschool. It broke, and i was devastated. Jeff understood the sentimental attachment that i felt for the hand print. He repaired it and made it look new again. I should say he made it look like my daughter made it 18 years ago which is exactly what i wanted. I greatly appreciate Jeffs craftsmanship and expertise and found it easy to work with him.

Jeff refinished a table for me that had significant heat and water rings on it. The table was fixed beautifully and for less than he quoted. You dont have that happen often. Would definitely use him again.

Review №39

I submitted my restoration request via photos as Jeff requested; he promptly replied with a quote. I agreed to the cost of repairs, dropped off my items and they were repaired within days. To be honest, I cant tell where the items were damaged, theyre as good as new!! I highly recommend Jeff if you have something in need of repair.

Jeff was so kind to take my furniture repair last minute. He finished it within 2 days and even cleaned and polished it for no extra cost. His quote was significantly less than other quotes from other companies. I highly recommend Jeff for any furniture repair or restoration!

Review №41

Jeff is not only a highly skilled craftsman and artist, but also one of the best businessmen around. He gives as much attention to giving the best customer service as he does repairing priceless pieces to the finest detail.I took a customers marble statue to Jeff for a difficult repair. Head and appendages broken off and crumbling. After his repair I could not even tell where the piece had been damaged. He had to reconstruct delicate fingers, etc. He had to color match to the antique marble patina. It was done very well. I could also tell he had a great deal of respect for how important this statue was to its owner. He communicated clearly in his emails, and kept me updated on progress without me having to reach out to him first. He completed the repair much more quickly than I anticipated, and given the quality of his work I considered the cost to be reasonable. I dont think anyone else could have satisfied my customer as completely as he did.This was my first repair job for Jeff, and although I hope not to need this type of service very often, Jeff will always be the first person I call from now on.

Jeff did an amazing job on a table for us - could not be more thrilled with the outcome. The table looks new - and still has all the family memories - so much better than trying to find a replacement. He answered all my questions, and it was ready early. Fabulous experience and Ill definitely be back.

Review №43

We had a small English drop leaf table that was a family piece with very serious leg damage. It had been moved many times through the years and frankly we doubted the table could even be restored. After some discussion about what needed to be repaired, Jeff said he could fix the table and would enjoy working on it.When we went to pick it up, we were totally amazed with the beautiful job he had done! It was such a pleasure to get to know and work with him. He truly listens to you and is very professional. We highly recommend Jeff and are already planning on another restoration project with him.The second project we had Jeff work on was an oil painting that hung above a fireplace for many years and was extremely dirty from all the accumulated soot. Jeff cleaned it and did a superb restoration job on both the painting and the frame. We were very pleased with his work and its once again a beautiful piece of art.Whenever we have a question about anything related to the work Jeff has done for us, he always responds promptly.

Review №44

I work for a residential cleaning service and a ceramic item belonging to a customer was dropped and broken into a few pieces. The item had been broken by the customer before, but was of significant sentimental value. It was a wedding gift many years ago and irreplaceable due to age and lack of identifying branding. It was a relatively clean break, but I simply could not get the pieces to fit back together. I contacted Jeff, and he was very quick to respond with various different repair options at different price points. I let him know our budget and set up a time to drop off the item that day. The repair was done with a quick turnaround and the results far exceeded our expectations! I feared that we may not be able to return the item to the customer in a satisfactory condition, but Jeff did an excellent job! He was able to fit the pieces together and repair the glaze to conceal the crack lines. We will definitely use him in the future as he was professional, respectful of our budget, and performed quality work.

Review №46

We recently moved to Raleigh from Palm Beach. Unfortunately, the movers damaged our custom made 5X5 coffee table. They also broke the door off of a very expensive exotic wood cabinet. The moving company recommended Jeff Johnson Restoration and Design. Lucky for us that Jeff was recommended. He came to our home accessed the damage submitted it promptly to the moving company. He had the damaged pieces pick up and repaired them like new. When I told him we expected company and I would love to have the pieces before they arrived he said he would do his best for an extra quick turnaround. True to his word. The items were delivered one day before our guest arrived. One would never know that they had ever been damaged because the repair was top notch.

Claims Adjustment Technology settles over 1,500 military loss & damage claims yearly. We work with repair firms all over the country, and Jeff Johnson is absolutelyone of the best of the best! His restoration work is outstanding. His reports andabove and beyond research are second to none. Unfortunately, many repair firms are frankly, not very good. However, I know when we have a work order in Jeffsarea, my client, my company, and the claimant are all going to be very happy indeed!Thanks, Jeff! Youre the best!

Jeff is multi-talented and offers superior customer service. I have used him to repair art pieces (wood and pottery) and most recently a large ornate picture frame. Jeff has done a great job in each case. In fact, it is difficult to see evidence of the repair as it is seamless with the design of the item.Highly recommend him as he is one of a kind!Satisfied CustomerFebruary, 2015

Outstanding Company! Jeff Johnson always does every job with such attention to detail (that is often hard to come by these days). I am always blown away by the miracles that he has pulled off on our pieces! If you are looking for a great company, this is it! I have sent many friends his way and will continue to do so in the future. Truly an artist in the restoration field!

My wife & I were ecstatic with the results we received from Jeff! He took our 50+ year old tables and made them look better than new. Now we have a piece of our family history preserved for years to come. If I ever need any more furniture refinished, Jeff will be the only person I call.

Review №55

I had a large Chinese floor vase which had been in our family for four generations. It had suffered damage when another piece of furniture accidentally fell over on it. There were two long cracks that circled the vase and had displaced the porcelain. I spoke with Jeff and he advised me how to best handle moving the vase to his shop. He was very prompt in doing the repair and I am very happy with it. The surface is flat again and no one would know that it had been cracked. His prices are quite reasonable and he was very nice to deal with. I would definitely recommend him and would use him again.

Jeff was super professional and quick to respond. He took care of my glass mobile and restored it to perfect condition! The turnaround time was quick and his customer service was great. I would recommend Jeff for any work you have, even those with sentimental value that are hard to trust someone else with (like my piece).

Jeff has fixed furniture, antique pottery and recently kitchen cabinets. We had two door and two drawer fronts that had been damaged. Jeff fixed them and matched up the colors so they look as they were new and matching the rest of custom cabinets. He has always been quick and meticulous in all he does. Mike

My husband and I hired Jeff to convert a wine barrel from the Williamsburg Winery into a wine rack for our dining room. All I can say is... WOW! Did it ever turn out beautifully! Jeff is a great listener and communicates very well throughout the entire process. It was a joy working with him and every time my husband and I see the wine rack in our dining room, were reminded of our amazing wedding day. All thanks to Jeff!

Jeff did a great job fixing a statue that broke. The statue means a lot to our family, it was my dads and is of three Vietnam Veterans. Jeff was able to reattach the soldier that broke off, and even cleaned it up. It looks perfect! We are very grateful!

My folks lived through 2 of the Eastern NC floods. My mothers paintings, painted by her grandmother 68 years ago, were significantly damaged in the floods. Jeff did an amazing job cleaning and repairing the paintings and the frames. He kept in touch with us through the process even sharing pictures. The paintings are beautiful! We will recommend him to anyone and plan to have him repair some antique furniture also damaged in the floods.

Jeff Johnson came to the rescue when movers ruined an historic grandfather clock. Not only were the clock works ruined, but there was significant damage to the case. He had the clock picked up in Fayetteville and brought to his workshop in Raleigh. In a short period of time, the clock was back at home in better shape than it had been before the damage. He replaced the clock works with a new set from Austria (top of the line!) and did a fantastic job with the damaged gingerbread molding etc. Recommend him highly!!!
