Furniture Medic
For Soft Remodels of Hotels, Restaurants and Other Hospitality Properties
Refresh Image of Existing Pieces
...for property Remodels and upgrades
In the hospitality business, there's fierce competition to keep properties looking fresh and up to date. It's often not financially feasible to install new furniture throughout - that's where we come in. We can remove scratches, watermarks, burn marks and other wear and tear of existing furniture to update your property's image and save you money.
Shipping and Installation Damage Repair
...accidents happen
When furniture is manufactured overseas, as most of it is these days - it travels by container to the US. Dings, dents and scratches show up during transport as well as during actual installation - as time is money! We can help. Working alongside installation and construction teams, we can touch up pieces quickly to get your property up and running fast.
Color Change, Match and Correction
...it's the details that matter
Using low-odor, water-based products, we can quickly and easily change the color of pieces to suit your new look. We also offer custom finishes to suit your design needs. From built-ins and paneling to tables, chairs and beds, all work is done on-site with your schedule and budget in mind to minimize the down time for your property.
Custom & Specialty Furniture Creation
...for that special property that commands the highest quality.
Whether it's a luxury chalet in the mountains or a high end resort overlooking the ocean, you need the type of furniture your guests wish they had in their own homes... we've got you covered. With our extensive knowledge and experience, we can help provide you with the furniture that will set your property apart from all the rest.
We'll Come to YOU!
Murphy's Mobile Touch brings all of our services into your home! It can be time consuming and costly to transport furniture for repair, restoration or even touch up.

The Expert Himself
...with over 30 years of experience
Paul Murphy
OWNER
When Paul was just 16 years old, he began his apprenticeship into the antique restoration and refinishing field in his hometown of Farnham – Surrey, England. As a third generation restorer, he discovered his natural abilities to bring out the beauty in antiques. In 1982, Paul moved from England to Los Angeles and he brought with him his love for the restoration and refinishing trade. For the first 5 years in LA, he worked for 3 of the top restoration companies in the area. By 1987, he was ready to branch off on his own and started Murphy’s Touch as he further developed his own creative style of bringing life back to the finest antiques.
Since then, Paul has built a solid reputation for being one of the most skilled restorers, and is known for his knack for keeping antique pieces looking “antique”—as well as for making new pieces look old. Utilizing old world products that were used in the original creation of the antiques, Paul’s methods help to maintain the value of the piece in the market. Having worked for prestigious clients that range from a king, a Mayor and the Getty Museum to the who’s who in the Hollywood crowd, Paul can confidently replicate "any kind of finish you can come up with."
