Furniture repair artisan, expert in restoring mid-century pieces at CT Furniture Restoration’s Stratford, Connecticut workshop

LUIS SOLANO ‘Lead Artisan’

I’ve been restoring furniture for over two decades, driven by a deep respect for craftsmanship and timeless design. My journey began in 2000 at Maurice Villency, a name synonymous with quality and elegance. It was there that I was introduced to the fine details of furniture restoration—from carefully matching wood grain and finish to reupholstering with precision and care. Under the guidance of seasoned artisans, I learned how to breathe new life into worn or damaged pieces, preserving their original beauty while ensuring they remain functional for years to come.

What started as a job quickly became a lifelong passion. Each piece I restore tells a story, and I take pride in honoring that story through meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to excellence. Whether it’s a cherished heirloom or a unique vintage find, I approach every project with the same level of care and dedication.

Today, I bring that passion and expertise to my own workshop, where I continue to restore and revive furniture with the same reverence I developed all those years ago. For me, it’s not just about fixing what’s broken—it’s about preserving history, craftsmanship, and the memories attached to every piece.

Each piece that comes into our workshop is unique. Some have decades of wear, while others simply need a touch of refinement. It’s not just about fixing what’s broken—it’s about honoring the craftsmanship and history behind every design.

We use time-tested techniques combined with modern tools to ensure every restoration is seamless. From sanding to staining, every step is handled with care and precision.

Our team studies each curve, joint, and surface to understand how it was made—and how best to bring to restore it. Patience guides the process.

We match finishes, restore structure, and renew comfort while preserving the essence of the piece. Every restoration is a careful transformation—an effort to enhance what already exists and ensure it continues to offer beauty, function, and lasting value.

What Our Clients Say

  • Bernhard Klein Wassink

    Luis and team did a great job restoring my dad's mid century office chair. He made the metal parts look great, and redid the upholstery.

  • Heather Christie

    Everyone was friendly and very professional. They restored an old trunk for me and did a superb job! I would highly recommend this company!

  • Judy Peregrim

    This is such an easy review! We have an 'antique' chest that was coming apart and clearly abused over the years. Luis, a true artisan in wood & refinishing brought this piece back to life and better! Luis Solano and CT Furniture Restoration was the best of the best to work with - Luis explained what and how he would bring this chest back to life, and did so. Let me add that this talented man, was so patient with me in helping with the staining. I can recommend a better place to have this work done! Thank you Luis and CT Furniture Restoration. Save you furniture, before you buy new, which simply doesn't compare these days to the quality.

  • Joannie Buhrendorf

    Luis was a consummate professional. He kept me informed of the progress of restoring my 2 mid-century coffee tables the whole way through ... and he did a phenomenal job! Brought them to their original glory ... actually better. His pricing was very reasonable and his staff was lovely. Thank you Luis and CT Furniture Repair!


  • A Carpenter

    Have to say that these guys did a fantastic job with the two antique dressers I brought. Gave me an estimate based on the photographs, communicated with me throughout the entire process, responded timely, and restored two beautiful pieces of furniture that I am proud to have in my home.
