I was referred to Tom and Allisons Wood Finishing, come to find out it was under new ownership, Joe. Still gave them a shot. I used Joe for a somewhat large project, refinishing the cabinets in 2 bathrooms, a hallway built-in linen closet and a guest house bathroom and kitchenette. The quality of the actual paint job was good. Scheduling and coordinating were rough, a 2 day job turned into a 5 day job when some crew didnt show up and left 1 guy alone for a day, and another day was lost because they didnt have the cabinet hardware available and needed to order from Amazon, despite knowing weeks ahead of time we wanted soft close door hinges added. But could have lived with that. The really unfortunate thing, was cleanliness. The mess was absolutely horrible. I stressed beforehand how sensitive my wife is to dust, and Joe assured me dust wouldn’t be an issue but that the paint smell could be strong. We could deal with paint smell, dust was our concern. One of the bathrooms was a Jack and Jill bathroom, with a door from the bathroom leading into my daughter’s room and another into a toy room. No drop clothes were used, no plastic, they left the door into my daughter’s room wide open while they sprayed the cabinets. There was literally overspray dust 2mm thick throughout my daughter’s entire room. Her bedding, the carpet, the wall art, her stuffed animal collection, her lego collection. She was devastated. How do you clean lego sets with that much dust? Similar throughout the other areas… they left doors open while they sprayed, and there was so much dust accumulation that it took 3 days and over a thousand dollars to clean up between cleaners and carpet cleaners. We had to purchase some specialty filters for areas in the home to get the dust out of the air, and my wife’s lungs were wrecked. They were also paid to drill new holes in the cabinet doors for new knobs. They left a pile of wood dust in every single drawer they drilled a hole for. I called Joe and he was adamant that this was not how they do things, he wants to make it right, etc. I sent him pictures, he said he would get back to me. He didn’t. I had to follow up again nearly 3 weeks later asking what the deal was. He did respond, and offered me a very small refund “for the additional time spent cleaning”. It wouldn’t have covered even 25% of what I spent to clean up after them.

I built a maple coffee table for my living room and it turned out great until I botched the stain job and ruined my project. Called Joe at Allison’s Wood Finishing and they stripped and refinished my table. They mix their own stains in house and matched it up perfectly. The end result was stunning and I have a coffee table that will last for generations to come. I couldn’t be happier! Please consider Joe at Allison’s Wood Finishing for all your wood finishing and restoration.

I was referred to Joe at Allison’s Wood Finishing by another woodworking professional. Very happy I was! Joe did a great job stripping and refinishing my end table that my husband bought me in Italy over 15 years ago. I didn’t like the outdated glossy cherry finish and he did a wonderful job bringing it up to date! Highly recommend!

Joe, Jorge and the team were professional and did an outstanding job. We had our kitchen cabinets stained; they completed the work on time, and their attention to detail was exceptional. We had a great experience with them and would highly recommend to our friends and family. Thanks Joe and Team for your hard work and for making our kitchen so beautiful!!
