When restoring furniture makes more sense than replacing it

If the carcass is solid but the surface has darkened, picked up stains and scratches or simply looks dated, you do not need new furniture. A Handyman RS master comes to your home, sands back the damaged areas, repairs chips and joints, repaints or refinishes with lacquer, oil or wax. Send a photo on WhatsApp, Telegram or Viber: the handyman will tell you what can be restored and what it costs. Hinges, drawer slides and drawers are handled as part of furniture repair at home.

What we restore

Wooden furniture

Solid wood tables, chairs, dressers, nightstands and wardrobes: stripping the old finish, repairing the surface and a new finish.

Antique and vintage furniture

Old sideboards, cabinets, wall units and chairs: careful sanding, regluing loose joints, tinting and lacquer.

Repainting fronts

Wardrobe and kitchen fronts: we take off the doors and hardware, sand, paint in a new colour and refit.

Water stains and darkened wood

Dark marks on worktops and vanity units in bathrooms and kitchens: we sand back the darkened area and refinish with lacquer or oil.

Lifted veneer

Veneer that has peeled or swollen from moisture is glued down, levelled and sealed with a finish.

Scratches and chips

We fill scratches and chips, match the colour and lacquer or polish the surface where needed.

Chipboard repair

Torn-out fixings, cracks and chips on chipboard beds, wardrobes and dressers: we rebuild the joint and reassemble the piece.

Edge banding

Peeling or damaged edge banding on shelves, doors and worktops is reglued or replaced.

Reupholstery

Chair seats, armchairs and padded backs: we remove the old fabric, replace the padding and recover.

Finishes we use

We choose the finish for the material and where the furniture stands

Acrylic paint

For repainting fronts and carcasses in a new colour; applied in two coats.

Acrylic lacquer

Protects painted or natural surfaces and adds sheen.

Oil

For natural wood, including worktops: keeps the grain visible and is easy to refresh.

Wax

Soft sheen and protection for solid wood, good for filling fine scratches.

Tint and wood stain

Even out the colour after sanding or make the wood darker.

Hardware

Before painting we remove hinges, handles and locks, then refit and adjust them.

How furniture restoration works

The handyman works at your home

    Send a photo of the furniture and the damage in a messenger or through the form. The handyman will tell you what can be restored and give an estimate.

    On site the handyman inspects the piece, confirms the price and chooses the colour and finish with you: paint, lacquer, oil or wax.

    Preparation

    Removes the hardware, sands off the old finish, fills chips and repairs joints.

Project: repainting fronts at the Ciskari space

Built-in wall unit with veneered fronts

Repainting veneered fronts of built-in furniture — furniture restoration
Project

Repainting a veneered wall unit in light olive

A floor-to-ceiling built-in wall unit at the Ciskari public space, with dark wood-coloured veneered fronts. We took off all doors and panels and removed the hinges, handles and locks. The old finish was sanded off, the fronts were painted light olive with two coats of acrylic paint and sealed with acrylic lacquer. Then we refitted the fronts and hardware and checked how the doors close. The open shelves were left in the wood tone. The furniture stayed the same, and the room became noticeably brighter.

Furniture restoration FAQ

What furniture do you restore?

Wooden, antique and vintage furniture, wardrobe and kitchen fronts, worktops with water stains, lifted veneer, chipboard furniture with chips and torn-out fixings, edge banding, and we also reupholster. Send a photo: if the job is not for us, we will say so straight away.

Is the restoration done at home or in a workshop?

The handyman works at your home, so the furniture does not need to go anywhere. Tools and materials come with him.

How much does furniture restoration cost?

Restoration costs from 3000–6000 RSD: the price depends on the piece, the size of the damage and the finish; materials are charged separately. Send a photo on WhatsApp, Telegram or Viber or leave a request through the form: the handyman will give the exact price from the photo and confirm it before starting. Payment after you accept the work, no prepayment: cash or bank transfer.

How long does restoration take?

Small jobs — scratches, chips, a stain on a worktop, edge banding — take 1–3 hours on site. Repainting fronts and full restoration take several days. We work every day from 08:00 to 20:00.

What finishes do you use after restoration?

Acrylic paint, acrylic lacquer, oil or wax, with tint and wood stain where needed. We pick the finish for the material and location: lacquer or oil for a bathroom worktop, acrylic paint and lacquer for repainted fronts.

Can water stains be removed from a wooden worktop?

Yes: the handyman sands back the darkened area and refinishes the worktop with lacquer or oil. Send a close-up photo of the stain so we can judge how deep it is.

Can veneered furniture be repainted?

Yes. The veneer is sanded to a matte surface so the paint bonds well, then painted in the chosen colour. That is how we repainted a veneered wall unit from dark wood to light olive.

Can scratches and chips be removed?

Yes, this is part of restoration: the handyman fills scratches and chips, matches the colour and lacquers or polishes the surface where needed. A close-up photo shows the depth of the damage best.

Can chipboard furniture be repaired if a fixing has been torn out?

Often yes: the handyman rebuilds the damaged joint and reassembles the piece. We will tell you from a photo whether it works for your furniture.

What warranty do you give on furniture restoration?

Handyman RS gives up to 6 months warranty on furniture restoration.

Need furniture restored?

Send a photo of the furniture: the handyman will tell you what can be restored and give the price before starting.
