Exceptional communication, work quality and professional. Came through above & beyond on everything they said they would. Picked up table, removed top, took back, refinished it perfectly (faster than they said), returned, reassembled, tested before they left (self storing leaves) and were polite and on time. I wish my own employees were half as reliable as these two. Can't thank them enough...do not hesitate, they go above and beyond normal expectations.

I originally highly recommended Amanda and Hillbilly Barter and Trading Company. Amanda refinished the top of my farm table beautifully. I was very pleased with the results and immediately wrote a very positive review. A few days after Amanda returned the table, I sat down at it with a client. The table wobbled so badly that my tea almost fell off the table. The client who had sat there before for meetings said that the legs hadn’t been screwed in properly. I contacted Amanda and she was willing to come over and fix it. But that never happened … she’d collected her money and wasn’t interested in fixing her mistake free of charge. Instead, she blamed it on the faulty table design- the screws attaching the legs to the table weren’t any good because the holes were too big. However, when she picked up the table, she decided to remove the legs. She had trouble removing 3 legs and was unable to remove the fourth. So I’m stuck with a table that wobbles so much that it’s almost useless. After Amanda didn’t carry through on her promise to fix it, I reported the issue to Thumbtack. She isn’t responding to any of their calls or texts. I would never hire that company again. Yes, the table top is nice but it wobbles so much that it really can’t be used.

They are not done with the project yet, but I am very hopeful. It has been very easy working with them. They are very responsive and have had a lot of good ideas about what I could do to revive a dining set.
