Grimes Interiors | Furniture Repair and Restoration — Local services in McKees Rocks

The Grimes Family run an incredible business. They are truly in the market to help people with their furniture issues, and make sure their clientele gets the best and most honest service they can. I brought a leather reclining chair in to their store to see if it could be repaired. It was only 3+ years old. The reclining mechanism became disengaged at some point. I spoke with Dwayne prior to bringing the chair in. He honestly told me that he would have to look at the piece before letting me know if the chair could be repaired. I left the chair with him. He got back to me letting me know that unless the piece was totally taken apart (seat cushion removed, leather peeled back from arm, and more) he would not be able to even see what exactly was the issue. And, unfortunately, that would cost a lot, at a minimum for the time involved to take all apart and put it together properly without damaging the leather. Plus, who knows what parts were going to need to be ordered. He did not recommend doing this. He was able to get the chair upright so it could be used as a chair, not recliner. I really appreciate his honesty. Grimes was the only repair facility that would even look at the piece. They were not looking to just make money off of me. They were looking out for me to offer me what they felt was right. This is something you do not see frequently in businesses today. If you are looking for someone to repair your furniture. I highly recommend going to this repair shop for the knowledge, skills and honest craftsmen you will be...

Amazing work! I had the distinct pleasure of meeting and working with Dwayne Grimes. Clearly, an old world craftsman of the highest caliber. I have a massive leather sofa that I intended to keep for my lifetime. Over the years, it has seen some rough use and the frame broke and was sagging. I couldn't get other furniture repair places to return my calls. But Dwayne did. I sent pictures to Dwayne and after he took a look and we talked, he came out to pick it up, personally, with his son. He repaired it and after a few weeks, he and his son returned it. It needed more work than originally anticipated and he and his team beefed up the entire frame to last for decades and more. Additionally, some of the stitching was coming undone on one of the cushions and his team repaired it so expertly that it looked brand new! Craftsmanship comes with a cost and the repair for my sofa was significant. That being said, the repair was so phenomenal and the experience so positive, I can honestly say that Dwayne offers an exceptional value that you will not find anywhere else. It really...

Grimes Interiors did an exceptional job refurbishing my antique furniture items into quality family heirlooms. I had a china closet and small table/cabinet that were handed down through my mom's family. Turns out, both were originally something else, as Grimes pointed out. The china closet was crafted out of a different piece of furniture and the table/cabinet was actually an old wash table. Pretty neat to learn the history just by having someone take a quick look.

Both were in pretty rough shape after many moves throughout the years. Add in the pieces being around 100-plus years old and all the wear and tear associated with that. Grimes restored both to immaculate, functional pieces. I can't wait to pass these down through my family. I highly recommend Grimes Interiors. They have a real passion for their work and no shortcuts are taken. It's quality craftsmanship. I feel a great sense of pride in having these items restored to their glory and will continue to remain part of my...
