🪑 Capital ReStyle – Frequently Asked Questions

What does Capital ReStyle do?

We specialize in giving old furniture a second life. Whether it's a worn-out dresser, outdated dining set, or antique chair, we collect, restore, refinish, and reimagine furniture with a fresh, modern twist—right here in Ottawa.

Do you pick up furniture from homes in Ottawa?

Yes! We offer free furniture pickup services across Ottawa and nearby areas, including Kanata, Orleans, and Barrhaven. If you have unwanted furniture that still has good bones, we’ll happily give it a new life instead of it ending up in the landfill.

What kind of furniture do you accept?

We accept most solid wood furniture and well-constructed pieces that can be restored, upcycled, or repurposed. This includes:

• Dressers

• Coffee tables

• Dining chairs and tables

• Armoires and cabinets

We don’t currently accept mattresses, couches with heavy wear, or particleboard furniture.

What happens to the furniture once you collect it?

Once we pick up a piece, we assess its condition and give it a custom makeover—this may include:

• Sanding and refinishing

• Painting or staining

• Reupholstering

• Minor repairs and updates

The result is a unique, eco-conscious piece of furniture that’s both functional and beautiful.

Can I buy the restored furniture?

Absolutely! Our finished pieces are sold through our online shop, local markets, and pop-up events in the Ottawa area. Follow us on social media or subscribe to our mailing list to get first dibs on new arrivals.

Can I request a custom restoration?

Do you offer furniture painting or refinishing for clients?

No,sorry we don’t offer that service at this time..

Are your materials and paints eco-friendly?

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We use low-VOC, non-toxic paints and stains, and we keep as many materials out of the landfill as possible. Choosing restored furniture in Ottawa is a smart, stylish, and eco-conscious choice.

Where is your workshop located?
