About Us
My name is Patrick McGovern.
I started working with teak furniture back in 2006. After a few years of trial and error. I started running out of errors. I took what was left and developed a somewhat standardized process for restoring teak outdoor furniture. I never found an easy way to do it, but I found ways to do it efficiently and consistently.
As far as I know, I am the only person in the Bay Area who restores TEAK furniture exclusively. There are a couple of other outfits that do it, but they also pressure wash parking lots and things like that.
All I do is TEAK furniture.

The Truth About Teak Furniture
All outdoor furniture requires some degree of maintenance. Teak requires a bit more than other materials. Exactly how much maintenance depends on how you want your teak furniture to look.
Teak furniture that is built with high-quality materials and proper construction techniques will last forever.
It can be left outside, untreated, and it will not rot or decay.
The sun and rain will not hurt it.
Bugs don’t eat it or burrow into it.
Most dogs won’t even chew on it.
If left outside to fend for itself the surface of the teak will turn gray but the gray is only skin deep. Underneath the gray layer is clean unweathered teak. No matter how bad it may look well built teak furniture is always worth restoring.

I highly recommend Teak Furniture Service! We recently bought a new teak table and chairs and wanted to make sure they continued to have the honey color. The Terra Outdoor Living store in San Ramon referred us to Patrick and within a few days, he was at our house sealing the furniture. He started by lightly sanding and then sealing the set. The sealant enhanced the color and it looks great! His price was very reasonable too. He left us some sealant and instructions for how to keep it up ourselves. Patrick was very personable and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend his services!

I stumbled upon some YouTube videos of restoring teak furniture, and it got me thinking that our teak could really use a makeover. For a quick minute, I thought, “I could totally do this!” And then I quickly came to my senses and found Patrick here on Yelp. For my seven pieces of teak furniture, the turnaround time was lightning quick, pricing was completely reasonable, and 100% worth it. I wanted our furniture to look as great as it did when we got it, and now it has its original golden glow. Thank you, Patrick!

I highly recommend Teak Furniture Service. Patrick was very pleasant to work with and did an excellent job restoring our 15-year-old teak furniture to look new. He was professional, a clear communicator, and efficient. He picked up the furniture on time and delivered it back earlier than promised. We asked him to leave the furniture on the lawn so that I could wash the patio before replacing it. But when we came home, everything was in place on the patio because he had taken it upon himself to wash the patio … he didn’t want to leave the furniture in the grass. Wow! Use Patrick! You won’t be disappointed!!!

Patrick is FABULOUS!! Our 12-year-old teak patio furniture looks better than when we first bought it. I LOVE the results. (and we gave him a bit of a mess to fix!) Great communication throughout the process… he picked up and delivered back to our home. In my opinion, very reasonable pricing for how much work he put into the project. He really cares about his craft — very knowledgeable. Will definitely call him next year for annual maintenance. He is friendly, and clearly has a lot of integrity. Thanks again!!
