Doctor Teak, Inc

Dr. Teak services our teak furniture every two years. They are responsible and do an outstanding job. All around a pleasant experience: scheduling. technician, results and billing. I highly recommend the firm. Jim K

Doctor Teak did a great job freshening up our teak tables and bar stools. The technician was so good, taking his time to do it right. Then, when I followed up about some rain spots and teak oil leaching from our table, they sent out a touch up kit for us to use. The leaching had nothing to do with their staining. Chris is a great businessman who knows what customer service is all about. A great team! Thank you Dr Teak!

Quick update… Chris (the owner) reached out and is trying to make things right. Speaks to his integrity and character. I’ll keep you guys posted on the outcome but I am hopeful.
7÷9÷2015. I am truly a FAN of Dr. Teak and will be a lifetime client. So after things went sideways with the customer service side of the company, Chris personally came to my home. I shared some of my concerns with him and he took the time to listen. He took the coffee table back with him and had his guys fix it all up. This was after they came back out a second time and performed another service to all the furniture.
Let me tell you something folks, a company like this is hard to find. Most places don’t even care about the clients they come in contact with on a daily basis. These guys aren’t perfect, who is? But if you are looking for great teak service and even better customer service, CALL THESE GUYS.

They did a great job. Freddy came over and sanded down our teak removing the stain I had previously done poorly. He then stained the teak making it look like new. We will definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommended

We have a four chair and 5 foot round teak table and chair set, that has taken a weather beating over the last 7 – 8 years. It has been stored on the side of our house for the last 6 years and was in pretty bad shape. I googled «teak restoration» and found a couple providers and got bids. While Dr. Teak was not the cheapest I found we decided to use them as Chris seemed very knowledgeable and promised to do a thorough job. While the price still seemed a bit steep, Chris has a formula to calculate his price. So we took a leap of faith. We couldn’t be happier. The guys showed up when they said they would, and finished a little ahead of when they thought they would. They were thorough, power washing, drying, sanding and finishing. The set looks brand new. Equally as important, Jorge and Richard couldn’t have been nicer to deal with… Kind, courteous, respectful and professional. I don’t write reviews very often, but when I come across excellent service, they should be rewarded, as this seems to be becoming more and more rare these days. They take pride in their work and professionalism.
I recommend Dr. Teak highly!!!
Thanks guys!!!

These guys did a great job with a lot of outdoor teak furniture I own. A rainstorm occurred during the process and they came bag and re did it. Guys were on time and owner was very responsive.

Doctor Teak refinished my employer’s teak furniture and they did a fantastic job. The movers were also very capable and careful. Thank you!

My wife and I had a nice set of Restoration Hardware outdoor teak furniture that was weathered and tired looking. Instead of buying all new (really pricy), we found Dr Teak and had them refinish all of the pieces plus change the color of the stain a bit. The results were amazing and it honestly looks better than new! They were professional and friendly throughout the process and the prices were definitely reasonable, especially considering how much new furniture costs. They also got us customized covers to help protect everything from the elements and keep it looking great. Really happy!

Dr. Teak refused to stand behind their workmanship and in addition they are rude and nasty. In addition to doing a bad wood refinishing job on our ipe deck – which was unevenly sanded and the stain was incorrectly applied-​negligent application of masking tape resulted in paint being removed from adjacent metal areas. This company refused to acknowledge their poor workmanship or to make corrections. Their work was reviewed by others in the field, including the stain manufacturer and was found badly deficient.

Absolutely fantastic! We have a large amount of Ipe decking and siding at out house. After 15 months, the wood started to age as is normal and took on a gray finish. We wanted the original finished look back, so I looked for somebody to refinish it. After interviewing and meeting with a few companies, we settled on Dr Teak, and we couldn’t be happier. They were great to deal with before the project. Their price was competitive, and the job was done on time. The manager even came back to inspect the job a few days after it was done and sent the workers back to touch up a few areas (I couldn’t tell that anything needed to be done, but apparently they want it all to be perfect).
You can’t go wrong with Dr Teak!

Wonderful/​professional and trustworthy! I bought expensive teak patio furniture three years ago and was sold on some «honey stain» sealant that was suppose to make the furniture gorgeous. WRONG — the minute I put it on — HATED the ORANGE color. To sand and refinish the whole thing (table/​4 chairs and 2 lounge chairs) would be too much work for me — I have a full time job afterall. Fast forward 3 years when the project was put on the back burner — My teak started to look a little ratty and I knew I had to stain it for the year but still hated the color — Driving home in Walnut Creek, CA — I spotted a Dr. Teak truck in my hometown! Went on their website and checked it out — called them to get a quote — they were completely on top of everything — no flim flam — just straight up quoted me a price with NO «negotiating — used care salesman feel.» Felt like they were up front with everything from the get go. They are completely insured and bonded. After thinking about it a couple of days — I decided to do it — procedure was streamline and efficient — gave me the day (s) they would need to be at my home at least 1 week in advance. Also — informed me I didn’t even need to be home. Normally — I’m not a sucker for that line but something about their efficiency and professionalism resonated with me. I have to work and it is hard for me to take time off — so I just left the patio gate unlocked for them and my home. I wasn’t even going to come home during the afternoon when they were in but I accidentally left my cell phone at home when I left for work so I had to stop by at lunch to retrieve it. When I got there — the Dr. Teak guy was outside working diligently — no sitting around chatting on the phone or doing what they were not suppose to be doing. I just left without them even knowing I was there. When I returned home — the furniture was done (one day instead of estimated 2). The guy who did the work left me a handwritten note with his name and cell phone number and asked me to contact him if I was not satisfied with anything. Checked out the furniture — BEAUTIFUL — back to the original color as if I just bought it. No mess around the patio –no stains on my patio. TOP NOTCH and completely profession — ON TIME — did the job one day faster than anticipated. Highly recommended for anyone who just don’t enjoy being handy. Would HIGHLY recommend!

I was going to throw my teak patio furniture away, and buy new. As I was driving home from the showroom, I had the fortune of spotting one of Dr. Teak’s trucks. I figured it couldn’t hurt to give them a call. After speaking with Jordan, I felt like my furniture had a chance to look good again while saving a lot of money.
I have to say I was astonished with the finished product. Dr. Teak not only refinished the furniture, they repaired it. The furniture looks better today than when we first bought it.

Dr. Teak refinished the outdoor teak furniture in the common areas of our shopping center, 8000 Sunset. The teak was in poor condition. The furniture has stainless steel decorative inserts. Dr. Teak did a fabulous job restoring the teak to look brand new with a rich walnut tone finish. They also coordinated their work with a company to refinish the stainless steel for us. Their staff is very professional. The work was done in two phases and completed within 2 weeks. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend Dr. Teak.

I used Dr. Teak (and had Jordan as my rep) for one of my client’s indoor table from Restoration Hardware. Restoration Hardware made numerous mistakes (which I will not get into for this review) however Jordan was on top of everything, he took my numerous calls & e-​mails, updating my client and I of what was going on from RH end and contacted RH directly (without me telling him) trying to solve the problem and getting the correct table to be delivered to him. After Dr. Teak got the correct table, he and the owner tried to accommodate my client’s schedule, squeezed and finished the table on time for her coming party. He finished the table on time and when it was delivered my client said «the finish looks amazing and made the whole look». The customer service of Dr. Teak and Jordan was amazing and unheard of. I really appreciate his hard work. I will for sure will refer more clients to them and use them again without any second thought. Thank you Dr. Teak and Jordan. SW
Yes I do take my time to write review for those who do a great job, and have great product and I will promote them in anyway I can, I do not like to spend my hard earned money or my clients for that matter on a bad or mediocre service or product! (Restoration Hardware has one coming to them and is not going to be pretty).

We’ve used Dr Teak since purchasing our Teak loungers 8 yrs ago. Our last restoration was approx 2+ yrs ago and they did an ok job. This yr we got estimates from Teak Master and Dr Teak. Dr Teak was the the lowest plus they gave us a 10% return customer discount. I took photos of the loungers and emailed them to Jordan who sent us the invoice/​estimate. On the day of our appnt Kevin showed up on time and prepared. He was very courteous and recommended we move the loungers to a better/​different location. He arrived at 9am and left at approx. 1:30pm. He power washed and completely sanded and stained every inch of the loungers. They look like a million bucks! Kevin also left towels under the legs of the loungers so as not to stain or discolor our mexican tiles. Kevin is a pro and we will definitely use Dr Teak again! Will post before and after photos-​seeing is believing.
