When the Move Leaves a Mark
If you’ve been searching for moving damage repair or furniture repair after moving, you’ve probably just unpacked a piece that didn’t travel as well as you hoped. A chipped table leg, a cracked frame, a rubbed finish—these things happen more often than people realize.
At The Woood Shop, we help make that right again. Our team specializes in furniture moving damage repair, restoring what movers and long miles may have taken out of your furniture. Whether it’s a small surface blemish or a structural break, we bring pieces back to strength and beauty—quietly, carefully, and locally.
Because a scratch from a move shouldn’t be the end of something you’ve cared for for years.
Local Work, Long-Term Craft
We’ve been repairing and refinishing furniture across the Roaring Fork Valley since 1978. That means we’ve seen everything a move can do—the gouges from straps pulled too tight, the dents from corners not quite covered, and the finish that fogged over in a hot trailer.
Our moving damage repair service started as a favor to local movers who trusted us to fix the pieces their clients cared about most. Today, it’s one of our most requested offerings—and we still handle every job with the same patience and detail that’s kept our small moving damage repair shop trusted for nearly fifty years.
When you bring your damaged furniture to us, you’re not just getting a fix—you’re getting craftsmanship that restores both function and feeling.

What We Repair
No matter how careful the move, wood and finishes are vulnerable to sudden changes in pressure, temperature, and handling. Our moving damage repair and refinishing covers the most common issues we see after a relocation:
Scratches, Dents & Gouges
We steam, fill, and color-match by hand until the mark disappears.
Broken Legs & Arms
Fixed with conventional joinery and extra support to make it last longer.
Chipped Edges or Veneer
Shaped and restored with fine detail so the repair blends into the grain.
Loose or Misaligned Joints
Disassembled, glued, then put back together to make it last.
Finish Damage from Heat or Moisture
Stripped, resealed, and polished for consistent sheen.
Drawers & Doors Off Track
Adjusted, rebuilt, or refitted for smooth, even function.
From antique desks to modern dining tables, every repair we make is done by hand, never rushed, never automated.
A Process Built Around Care
Every job starts with listening—understanding what happened, what matters most, and what outcome you’re hoping for. Then we move step by step:
1.Assessment & Estimate
We'll look at the piece in person or in a photo and give you a detailed price that explains your choices for fixing the damage caused by the move.
2.Onsite or In-Shop Repair
Some furniture damage repairs can be completed right in your home. Others need shop conditions for refinishing. We’ll recommend what’s best for the piece.
3.Repair & Restoration
Each repair is bench-crafted using proper joinery and period-accurate materials when needed. No fillers or shortcuts.
4.Finishing & Detailing
We color-match by eye to ensure each repaired area flows seamlessly into the original finish.
5.Delivery & Review
Every restored piece is inspected for strength, appearance, and feel before returning home—ready to be used again, not just displayed.
This is why we’re known throughout the valley as a moving damage repair specialist that works like a true workshop, not a warehouse.

When to Get Help
Don’t wait until a crack spreads or a joint weakens. If you’ve got some damage from moving furniture, it’s a good idea to reach out for repair help.
- You notice dents or scratches after unpacking.
- Veneer edges are lifting or peeling.
- The frame or leg of a table seems loose or uneven.
- Finish has dulled or clouded after storage.
- Drawers or cabinet doors won’t align properly.
Early repairs are faster, cheaper, and more reliable than waiting until structural issues develop.
Protecting Value, Not Just Appearance
A well-done moving damage repair isn’t about hiding flaws—it’s about restoring integrity. Each repair we do preserves the design, feel, and value of your furniture so it continues to serve, age, and tell its story.
We’ve restored pieces that crossed generations, survived relocations, and still stand proudly in Colorado homes. That’s what this work is about—not perfection, but preservation.
FAQ
Do you work directly with moving companies or insurance?
Yes. We’re a preferred moving damage repair specialist for several regional movers and can coordinate directly with claims departments.
Can you repair on-site?
Often, yes. Small touchups, re-gluing, and surface repairs can be completed through our onsite furniture touchup and onsite wood restoration services.
Do you match original finishes?
Always. Our color-matching process ensures the repaired area looks and feels just like the original.
Is my furniture worth repairing?
If it’s solid wood or holds sentimental value, almost always. Our damage repair approach focuses on cost-effective restoration instead of replacement.
What’s the turnaround time?
Minor fixes can be completed in a few days; complex furniture moving damage repairs and refinishing typically take 1–2 weeks.
