A timber workshop with furniture pieces

Furniture restoration

For pieces worth keeping, refreshing and using again.

Restoration enquiries focus on timber condition, finish, structure and the best practical path for extending the life of the piece.

Condition and finish

Show the condition clearly, then choose a finish direction that suits the piece.

Restoration starts with practical evidence: the full item, close-up wear, loose parts, surface marks and the room or area where the furniture will be used again.

  • Surface cleaning, sanding and finish refreshes.
  • Small repairs, stabilising and practical wear reduction.
  • Guidance on whether a piece is suitable for restoration.
