Restoration and Conservation

We can undertake partial or complete conservation and restoration as required by the customer. Having all woodworking skills, we can carry out most repairs, including veneering, using traditional Scotch glue or modern adhesives as needed.As well as conserving and reviving, we can finish the article in either Wax, French Polish or modern lacquers. We match repairs to the existing finish, the age of the piece, or even to the finish on complimentary articles. Leathering and tooling of most old surfaces can be undertaken. We can also provide an excellent service restoring faulty clock movements.
         
Before and after pictures showing how something which has disintegrated can be restored.
Sometimes it is only part of a piece of furniture that needs attention. In this case, a turning was missing and we could make a new one to match the originals.   
  This Italian inlaid, serpentine chest of drawers needed extensive restoration to the marquetry top retaining as much of the original as possible.

This oak stationery wall unit had to be completely dismantled before it could be resurfaced and repolished to regain its original finish
