What Our Clients Say
We used Olek Inc. to shorten and polish our beautiful heavy wood dining table. Olek had to disassemble the table, cut it, re-attach the bookends, and make it look like it was never touched. The result was flawless — you would never know it was modified.
I have a Vladimir Kagan 175 E armchair that was literally falling apart — the wood was separating at the joins and the leather seat and padding were shot. Peter at Olek did an amazing job bringing it back to like-new condition. Highly recommended for designer furniture restoration.
This is the second time I've had Olek reupholster my sofas. Each time I've been astonished at the stunning work. The craftsmanship is impeccable and the attention to detail is second to none. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my furniture.

Commercial Restoration & Fabrication FAQs
How are commercial projects priced?
We price from the scope, not a rate card. Send drawings, specifications, photos and quantities with your bid date, and we review what the job needs: materials, field information, coordination and logistics. You receive a written proposal with scope, price and schedule. For large seating or door programs, a sample or mockup can be priced first.
Can you work to our bid dates and schedule?
Tell us the bid or proposal due date when you send the package, so the review can be planned around it. During the project, shop production, deliveries and site work can be phased after hours, on weekends or on holidays to keep an occupied building running. For anything urgent, call us directly.
Is the work done on site or in your shop?
Both. Removable furniture, door leaves, hardware and seating usually come to our 20,000 sq. ft. workshop in Orange, New Jersey, where wood, metal and upholstery trades work under one roof. Built-in millwork, fixed seating and doors that stay in place are restored on site, and many projects combine the two.
Do you work on landmark and government buildings?
Yes: courthouses, cathedrals, universities, transportation buildings and federal sites such as Fort Hamilton. Preservation work can follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards, and Olek is a HUBZone Certified Small Business. Bid, payment and performance bonding may be available for qualifying projects, and procurement teams can request our capabilities statement.
What warranty do you offer?
Select work is warranted for up to 50 years. Coverage depends on the scope and materials, so each proposal states which work is covered and for how long. If your specification sets its own warranty requirements, include them in the bid package and the proposal will address them directly.
Is there work you don’t take on?
Our commercial team covers furniture and architectural woodwork, fabrication in wood and metal, metal doors and seating. Stained glass, art conservation and Eames chairs go to our specialty team. On fire-rated or egress doors, your architect, code consultant and the authority having jurisdiction set the requirements; we restore to that approved basis.
How do we get started?
Send the drawing set, specifications, photos, dimensions, project location, your role and the bid or start date. Upload smaller files with the form below; for large drawing sets, include a Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive link. We confirm anything else we need and arrange a site visit when the scope calls for one.
