Meet Tim! The newest addition to our team
Meet Tim — the newest member of our Found & Fixed family!
With 25 years of repair experience and skills passed down from his father, Tim has jumped right into our world of restoration. His journey began in college when he restored a baby grand piano with the help of a 91-year-old piano builder who shared stories, wisdom, and a finishing formula Tim still uses today.
From piano restoration to window displays in Manhattan to custom furniture design, Tim brings a deep respect for craftsmanship to every project. We’re so excited to have him on the team!
A step by step guide to refinishing!
One of our instagram followers asked us if we could give them a step-by-step guide and product recommendations on how to refinish a pair of vintage night stands.

So here it is! Our guide to how to refinish furniture at home.
