About Zen Restoration

Zen Restoration is a Boise, Idaho shop earning a perfect 5.0 rating across its reviews, which says a lot in a market where furniture repair quality can vary widely. They specialize in bringing worn or damaged pieces back to life through furniture repair, refinishing, and reupholstery. Boise's mix of older homes near the North End and newer builds in the Bench area means locals often need both antique-friendly restoration work and modern fabric updates. This shop handles both ends of that spectrum.

Services

Furniture Repair
Refinishing Services
Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Zen Restoration covers three core areas that often go hand in hand. Furniture repair addresses structural problems like broken frames, loose joints, or damaged legs before any cosmetic work begins. Refinishing strips and restores wood surfaces, whether that's a dining table with years of scratches or a mid-century dresser that needs a fresh stain. Reupholstery replaces worn fabric or foam on chairs, sofas, and cushions, with customers choosing from a range of fabric options to match their existing decor or start fresh.

Service Area

Zen Restoration serves customers throughout Boise and the surrounding Treasure Valley. People come in from nearby communities like Meridian, Garden City, and Eagle for work they can't find locally. It's a reasonable drive from most parts of the metro area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Zen Restoration work on antique furniture?
Yes, antique pieces are well suited to a shop that handles both structural repair and refinishing. They can assess whether a piece needs stabilization before any cosmetic restoration begins, which is critical for older furniture that may have weakened joints or original finishes worth preserving.
How long does furniture refinishing typically take?
Refinishing timelines depend on the piece's size and condition, but most single items take one to two weeks. If the piece also needs structural repairs before refinishing, that can add a few extra days to the turnaround.
Can I choose my own fabric for reupholstery?
Most upholstery shops let you select from their in-house fabric inventory or bring your own material. If you bring your own, confirm ahead of time how much yardage you'll need, as requirements vary based on the piece's size and pattern matching.
Is it worth reupholstering an old sofa versus buying new?
It depends on the frame quality. Older sofas, especially those made before the 1980s, often have hardwood frames that outlast most modern furniture. If the frame is solid, reupholstery can give you a better end product than a comparably priced new piece.
Do they offer pickup and delivery in Boise?
Availability of pickup and delivery varies by shop, so it's worth calling ahead to ask. Larger or heavier pieces like sectional sofas or dining sets are often candidates for this service even if it isn't standard.
What's the difference between furniture repair and refinishing?
Repair addresses structural or functional issues, like a broken leg, a loose joint, or a damaged drawer mechanism. Refinishing is a surface treatment that strips and restores the wood's appearance through sanding, staining, and sealing. Many pieces need both done in sequence.
