Gilbert Lachapelle did a fantastic job on our oak kitchen table top.
We wanted our oak table top finished before Christmas, 2010 and contacted Gilbert Lachapelle in early December for an estimate.
The table is a pedestal base and is 42" x 81" inches, which is including the 2 leaves in it.
We only wanted the top re-finished as it was rather badly scratched and stained and we needed the new stain colour to match the existing stain on the base.
Gilbert knew that we wanted it done before Chritmas and he refinished the table-top within 5 days for a very reasonable price and he did an outstanding job.
The stain coulour is great; it's a great match and we actually like the top better than the base now.
The lacquer finish is super-smooth; I'm surprised at how smooth and perfect it looks. It's kind of a satin finsh and looks great. I think the original finish was a higher-gloss but we like the way it looks now better than the original finish.
We'd definitely use him again.
