We had an old trunk that was my great grandfathers that had been in our family for years just sitting in a basement along with a cedar chest that had gotten damaged in a storage facility that we wanted to restore. I had contacted Michael Leo of Delaware Valley Restoration who requested we send pictures of each piece and he was very thorough at explaining everything that could be done to restore these wonderful heirlooms and that he did. Our trunk looks beautiful and Michael was able to restore the writing on the trunk that had not been visible before and we are using it in our family room it looks so fantastic. He also restored our cedar chest to its' original color and repaired the damages. They were also able to pick up and deliver both of these items which was a tremendous help to us. We couldn't be more pleased with the fantastic work and service of Delaware Valley Restoration and would highly recommend this company to anyone. read more

This is my second review of Michael Leo and his company Delaware Valley Restoration. This is by far the most professional and talented refinishing company in Chester County. I have been using Micheal for 30 years and the quality and pricing are always excellent. Michael loves bringing a piece of furniture back to life and he has done hope chests, dining room tables, chairs, and smaller side tables - all beautifully done. He also has painted a buffet, and 5 drawer bureau, and kitchen table. I hope some day to have him transform. my worn out kitchen and give it a wonderful new look. You will not regret hiring Mr. Leo. He is very talented. Beth Kairer read more

We cleaned out a family home and had well worn antiques from the 18 - 19th century. They were not useable in their current state so we were torn between restoring them or keeping them in the basement, out of sight. Michael restored them to their former beauty while respecting their previous finishes and making sure that everything he did to them was reversible so they would retain their value as antiques. He is the best we have found in this Mid-Atlantic region. Amazing work and our home has never looked better with all these lovely heirlooms! read more

I could not recommend Michael Leo and Delaware Valley Furniture Refinishing more highly. Michael Leo was personable, very responsive (even on weekends and at night). We had them refinish a dining room set, a table and most recently they painted our kitchen cabinets. Michael was on the job site for the cabinet painting and as the owner doing the work, he had no one to blame if something wasn't right. The refinished furniture and now the kitchen cabinets look great and we could not be happier! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Michael Leo! read more

DVR refinished a dining room table, 8 chairs, and 2 bedside tables for me. The old dining set finish had gone sticky over the years and would absorb moisture. The bedside tables had stains in the finish. My old sad furniture came back looking like new. I am very pleased with the professional work. It took a little longer than expected, but the results were well worth it. Price seemed quite fair. I know it was a struggle to get the old sticky finish off. read more

Michael Leo and his guys are great to work with and provided great results. They restored two pieces of furniture for us and they look terrific. Michael was very helpful with picking out stain and paint colors that allowed us to change the look of the pieces; they now look brand new. Given the beautiful work they do, Delaware Valley Restroration now provides us with the option to restore rather than buy new. We recommend them highly. Debbie A read more

Delaware Valley Restoration is the very best! I have been using their services since 1987. I might have even been one of their first clients. I can say with absolute conviction that their work stands the test of time. Projects that they did for me decades ago still look great. Projects that they did for me last year were done with the same enthusiasm as my early projects. I drive 40 minutes to their workshop and the drive is worth it. read more

I would use Delaware Valley Restoration again without hesitation! read more

A friend recommended Delaware Valley Restoration when I wanted to have my Grandfather's desk restored. The desk had about 80 years of everyday use, and looked worn and shabby. I dropped it off, and Michael Leo's group turned it back into a beautiful piece of furniture. I highly recommend these guys. read more
