Lou fills a huge niche. Say you've got a large piece of furniture that's got a ding in it. You either live with it (tacky), or you try to find a refinisher who's interested in the job (and good luck with that) and then hire someone at great expense to move it, or you call Lou. He patched up and reinforced a broken credenza that was missing a structural member, repaired and touched up a pair of shoji screens that a floor installer had played bumper cars with, touched up the top veneer of a desk that had been damaged by movers, and touched up the base of a lamp.It would have cost me hundreds of dollars to move the large pieces, even if I'd done it myself.... read full review

Lou did a great job repairing our couch frame! He was a great communicator, friendly, and reliable. He came to our house to do the repair which saved us the trip of transporting the couch to a shop. Definitely recommend Villar Restorations!

We had a family antique dining room table, showing it's age and many dinners since the late 1800s. Lou understood the unusual structure connections and refinished and restored it.It's been in storage, but moved recently to our daughter and son-in-law's home--it is beautiful, and we all appreciate being able to keep traditions with this nostalgic wonderful piece. Lou did an outstanding job!
