Testimonials

Restorers Without Borders was excellent in all regards. Very knowledgeable experts, excellent guidance, superb workmanship, careful attention to detail. I trusted them with a one-of-a-kind family piece and I’m thrilled with the results! They were also a pleasure to work with at every step in the process — always polite and professional, always listened to my opinions, and always met me at the right level when explaining the various options. I have nothing but good things to say. -KD 2/23/19
Amazing. Jeff, Dan and their team are fabulous - true craftsmen. They obviously love their work and care about their clients. They are responsive, timely, and know their craft in a way you just don’t see anymore -LS 5/29/18
Jeff and his team were a pleasure to deal with; they listened to what I was looking for; and there was no pretense, just a passion for their craft. Jeff was completely transparent on both cost and timing – it was just as I expected, and turned out just as he said. The team welcomed my unannounced drop-ins, and took time to answer all my questions. I will happily recommend them highly to others; and will return. -LZ 5/1/17
It was amazing. I brought the chair to Restorers Without Borders' back door and immediately several of the staff stopped what they were doing and came over to take a look. In addition to being very kind and sympathetic, they assured me right away that the chair could be fixed…. . In less time, and at less cost , the chair was ready (and this was during the Christmas holiday). The repair was seamless. I would certainly use them again and would highly recommend them. -JH 1/15/15
This is the third time we have used Restorers Without Borders and each time we have been amazed by the quality of the work. In our opinion there is no one else in the Boston area who equals the craftsmanship of Jeff, Afonso, and crew. -JM 10/9/13
This is not the first time I reviewed Restorers Without Borders for Angie's List. This service has been a gift to us. The whole team, led by Jeff Diamond, seems to work in concert to provide the highest quality service possible. Every team member is a highly-skilled professional. In addition, each of them is so pleasant to work with that the entire experience is a delight. Service is prompt and this time, faster than expected. -8/14/12
The experience was way above expectations. Their approach to the repair was very sophisticated and well thought out. I HIGH recommend Restorers with Borders. I would argue that the table after the repair is superior to the original piece. -MF 2/5/11
