ANTIQUE FURNITURE RESTORATION

Broken chair? Someone put a hot cuppa on your polished table? Have no fear, our highly skilled restorer Graham is here!

Graham has been restoring furniture since he began his apprentice-training in 1976. He has experience of a wide variety of types of work and styles of furniture, including:

• Extensive experience of oak and country furniture

• Trained mainly on period mahogany and similar

• Pine, both stripped and painted

• Clock cases (not movements)

• Victorian and Edwardian

• Sympathetic restoration

If it's made of wood, Graham can usually restore it!

Types of job include:

• Repairs

• French polishing

• Wax polishing

• Recolouring, including matching old paintwork

• Damage-proof modern finishes if required

• Works with a very good upholsterer

• Woodturning

• Veneering

• Replacing handles and knobs

• Repair/ replacement of locks and keys

• Glazing

• Re-leathering desks,

• Hand-stripping (NO dipping!)

• Repairs to modern wooden furniture

The only limitation is size, as of course we have to get it through the door and into the workshop.
