Services
Wood Finishing
We apply traditional and modern wood finishing techniques to restore furniture. Services include spray finishing, oil finishing, and wax finishing, tailored to customer preferences. Our methods enhance wood grain while ensuring durability against wear and tear.
French Polishing
This traditional technique uses shellac to create a high-gloss finish on furniture. We match existing tones for seamless repairs and highlight exotic wood grains. Ideal for antique restoration, it delivers a deep, reflective sheen.
Glazing Repairs
We replace broken glass in furniture like bookcases and clocks. Traditional panes and leaded glass are sympathetically repaired to maintain authenticity. Linseed oil putty or wood beading ensures a period-appropriate finish.
Wood Turning
Using lathes, we recreate symmetrical parts like legs and spindles. Each piece is colour-matched to existing furniture for seamless integration. This method preserves the original design while restoring structural integrity.
Furniture Stripping
Chemical stripping removes old finishes without damaging delicate veneers. Neutralisation ensures no residue affects new finishes. This process reveals hidden wood grain, particularly effective for oak and pine furniture.
