Save Thousands with Local Church Pew Refinishing
Affordable Church Pew Refinishing with ChurchPewRestoration.com
The traditional church pew refinishing model relied on a fixed-location warehouse, serving only nearby regions. This outdated method brought high overhead costs—rent, utilities, insurance, full-time staff—and limited flexibility. When the shop sat idle, those fixed expenses were passed onto customers, increasing the cost of refinishing each pew.
Shipping costs continue to rise, pushing up average cost of refinishing a church pew. This has priced out many churches and filtered the market to only a few companies—many of which offer pew restoration as a secondary service, rather than a primary focus.
A Smarter, More Affordable Way to Refinish Church Pews
That’s where ChurchPewRestoration.com changes the game.
Instead of bringing the pews to us, we come to you—eliminating unnecessary overhead, reducing transportation costs, and saving your church thousands of dollars.
More than ever, church renovation and restoration budgets matter. When costs get too high, committees are forced to consider replacing historic, solid wood pews with cheaper foam and fabric alternatives.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Why Local Church Pew Restoration Works Better
Here are just a few of the ways our mobile approach saves money and adds value:
✅ Volunteer Participation = Big Savings
At St. John Church in Duluth, MN, volunteers completed site prep and loaded pews in just four hours—saving $14,000 in the process.
Church members who can help with:
-
Removing book racks
-
Unbolting pews
-
Transporting to a nearby workspace
...can save between $20 –$30 per linear foot. That adds up fast.
✅ Use Local Warehouse Space
If your parish or a member has access to an unused warehouse or garage space, we can refinish the pews locally. This removes the need for long-distance shipping or expensive warehouse rentals—potentially saving thousands more.
