Lisbon, Jul 2026

Pedro refinished some outdoor antique furniture for me with teak oil, and he finished the job a couple days ago. He came two days last week, and he does good work and is flexible. The price felt fair, and I was very happy with how it turned out. I would definitely recommend him.

Anton made furniture for our beauty space and it is very beautiful and well done. Everything was very good and it matched what I wanted, and we are really very happy to work with him. Communication and timing were fine, and the price felt nice and fair. We are in Lisbon and I would call him again.

I was really impressed with Pedro, he was incredibly transparent and reliable. He replaced the extractor fan and did other random fixes around the house, he fixed everything we had agreed on and made the adjustments necessary in order to be able to fix everything within a few hours. Great work!

What should I check before hiring furniture repair in Lisbon?
