Wood Repairs and Restoration

Wobbly chairs, tired finishes, flood damage, family heirlooms — if it is made of wood and matters to you, bring it to the bench.

What It Entails

Mends You Can't Find

Good restoration is invisible. We re-glue failed joints with hide glue that reverses cleanly, splice in matching timber where pieces are missing, lift dents with steam, and rebuild finishes layer by layer — French polish, shellac, oil or lacquer as the piece demands.

Antiques get conservation-grade care: we preserve patina and original surfaces wherever possible, and document everything we touch. Everyday furniture gets the practical version — strong, honest repairs priced to make sense.

If you love it, usually yes. Send photos and we will give an honest verdict — including when we think a repair is not worth the money. Assessments are always free.

Done right, careful conservation protects value. We stabilize rather than over-restore, keep original surfaces where they survive, and document our work for provenance.

Chair re-glues from $90, full refinishing from $300, complete antique conservation quoted per piece — typically $600 to $3,000. Fixed before we begin.
