About Michael's Restorations

Michael's Restorations is a furniture repair shop operating in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with a current rating of 2.6 from 5 reviews. A lower rating with a small number of reviews can reflect a handful of difficult jobs or communication issues rather than a consistently poor experience, so it's worth reading individual reviews carefully. Colorado Springs has a diverse housing market, from older bungalows near Old Colorado City to newer builds in the Northgate area, and furniture repair needs vary widely across those neighborhoods. Repair-focused shops handle structural fixes that reupholstery specialists don't always offer.

Services

Furniture Repair

Services & Process

Furniture repair covers a broad range of fixes that go beyond cosmetic touch-ups. Common jobs include regluing loose joints on chairs and tables, replacing broken or sagging drawer slides, fixing wobbly legs, and repairing cracked or splintered wood surfaces. Some shops also handle refinishing work, which involves stripping old finish and applying stain or paint to bring worn wood back to a consistent look. If a piece has both structural and cosmetic damage, a repair shop can often address both in a single visit or job.

Service Area

Michael's Restorations serves Colorado Springs and the broader El Paso County area. Whether you're located near downtown, in the southeast neighborhoods around Powers Boulevard, or out toward Black Forest, the shop is centrally accessible. Customers from nearby Fountain and Security-Widefield also make use of Colorado Springs-based repair shops for this kind of specialized work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of furniture damage can actually be repaired?
Most structural issues including broken frames, loose joints, cracked legs, and damaged drawer hardware are repairable in a professional shop. Surface damage like deep scratches, water stains, and worn finishes can also be addressed through refinishing techniques.
Is it better to repair or replace a damaged antique piece?
For true antiques with sentimental or monetary value, repair is almost always the right call. A skilled furniture repair professional can restore the piece without diminishing its authenticity or value the way a replacement would.
How do I know if a piece is worth repairing versus just buying something new?
A good rule of thumb is to compare the repair cost against what a comparable quality piece would cost new. If the repair runs less than half the replacement cost and the piece has solid bones, repairing it usually wins.
Can furniture repair shops fix water-damaged wood?
Yes, depending on the extent of the damage. Swollen or warped wood can sometimes be stabilized and refinished, though severe water damage that has caused structural compromise may require partial replacement of sections.
Do I need to strip old paint or finish before bringing a piece in?
No, you should bring the piece as-is. The repair shop will assess the existing finish and determine whether stripping is necessary as part of the job. Doing it yourself beforehand can sometimes complicate the repair process.
Can a furniture repair shop match an existing stain or finish color?
Experienced repair technicians can usually get very close to an original finish using color-matching techniques. Bring the piece in or share detailed photos so the shop can evaluate the original tone and sheen level before starting.
