Welcome to Ferrari Furniture Doctor
Why Professional Furniture Repair Matters
Furniture connects us to memory, comfort, and style. High-quality furniture is an investment; neglecting damage or attempting improper repairs can reduce value and shorten lifespan. Professional repair preserves structure, finish, and resale or sentimental value. Skilled restoration protects original craftsmanship while modern techniques restore function and beauty.
Choosing a qualified shop like Ferrari Furniture Doctor ensures:
Structural integrity
Creaks, loose joints, broken frames, and missing dowels compromise safety and longevity. We diagnose and repair the root cause, not just the symptom.
Material-appropriate repair
Wood, veneers, adhesives, and finishes require different approaches. We select methods and materials that match the original construction.
Aesthetic fidelity
Matching grain, color, and patina keeps your pieces authentic. Our refinishing and color-matching processes create seamless results.
Project Management & Timelines
We'll provide a written estimate with projected timelines. Typical small structural repairs and upholstery fixes can be completed in a few days to a couple of weeks; refinishing and complex restoration may range from several weeks to months depending on scope. We keep you updated throughout.

How Ferrari Furniture Doctor Can Help
Assessment & Consultation
When you contact us, we start with a careful assessment. Send photos or bring the piece to 14 Tiverton Court, Algonquin, IL. Our initial evaluation identifies structural issues, material concerns, and the scope of aesthetic work needed. We explain options — repair, restoration, or replacement components — so you can choose the outcome that matches your budget and goals.
Structural Repairs
We handle casework stabilization, joint re-gluing, dowel and spline repairs, frame reconstruction, top replacements, and loose or broken legs. For antiques we follow conservation principles, repairing in ways that preserve original materials and character whenever possible.
Surface & Finish Work
Our refinishing service blends chemical stripping when appropriate, sanding, stain matching, and finish application with shellac, lacquer, oil, or modern catalyzed finishes. We evaluate the piece’s condition and recommended finish to retain finish longevity and aesthetic appeal.
Leather & Upholstery Services
From patching and re-dyeing leather to restuffing cushions, replacing webbing, and reupholstering chair seats, we restore comfort and style. We work with your selected fabrics or help source appropriate materials for a cohesive result.
Veneer Repair & Inlay Restoration
We skillfully repair lifting veneers, patch missing veneer with matched grain pieces, and restore inlay and marquetry with careful matching and color toning.
Antique-Friendly Approach
When working on antiques and heirlooms, we follow best practices: minimal intervention, reversible methods where feasible, and documentation of changes for provenance.
