Furniture Restoration Services

I restore and paint solid wood furniture so it feels at home in real rooms again. Every piece is handled slowly and by hand, using traditional methods, natural finishes and colours that age well rather than date quickly.

If you already have a piece in mind, or you would like to commission something from scratch, you can use the links below to explore each service in more detail.

 

Wooden Tables Rustic

Rustic wooden tables are at the heart of a lot of my work. I repair, reshape and refinish solid timber tables so they feel sturdy, characterful and ready for daily life again. That can mean tightening joints, levelling tops, softening edges or reworking colour and sheen so the table suits the room it lives in. You can commission a one off piece or ask me to restore a table you already own. Finishes range from bare wood with a soft wax to painted tops and legs that sit more quietly in a busy space.

Vintage Painted Furniture

Vintage painted furniture is all about giving older pieces a new chapter without wiping away their history. I start by stabilising the structure and sorting the repairs. Then I strip or key the surface so new paint can bond properly. From there it is about choosing colour and finish that respect the age of the piece and the room it will live in. The result is painted vintage furniture that still feels old but is cleaner, calmer and easier to live with, with hand worked surfaces, layered colour and a finish chosen for how you will actually use it.

Furniture Restoration

Furniture restoration is for pieces that need more than a quick lick of paint. I look at where the piece will live, how it will be used and what already works about it. Structural repairs come first, including joints, runners, veneer and hardware. Then I rebuild the finish so it feels balanced and believable again. Clients choose this service when they want to keep the soul of a piece but improve how it functions day to day. Every restoration furniture project comes with a clear quote, an agreed finish plan and straightforward aftercare advice.

Restoration of Antiques

Antique restoration is about knowing when to act and when to leave well alone. I stabilise loose joints, secure veneers and inlays, and repair worn runners or hardware, but I avoid stripping or over polishing unless it is really needed. The aim is to protect value and history while making sure the piece can be used safely. After treatment, antiques still show their age, they just do it more gracefully and without the damage that stops them being practical.

Artisanal Furniture

Artisanal furniture is built to last and often has great bones that just need careful attention. I work on handcrafted and reclaimed pieces using sharp tools, hand mixed finishes and traditional patina methods rather than heavy sanding and plastic coatings. This service suits people who value texture, proportion and honest materials. Together we can adapt a piece to awkward room sizes, existing colours or specific storage needs while keeping its original character intact.

Antiqued Painted Furniture

Antiqued painted furniture is for anyone who loves the look of timeworn paint. I build layered finishes that mimic natural ageing, with subtle colour shifts, gently worn edges and a soft sheen rather than harsh distressing. Traditional binders, pigments and waxes help the surface feel like it really belongs to the piece. This can be applied to individual items, doors, panelling or full kitchens. The goal is a finish that tells a story, stands up to everyday use and sits comfortably alongside both old and new elements in your home.

Painted Furniture

Sometimes bare timber is not right for a space. Painted furniture calms strong grain, tidies up mismatched tones and lets the shape of a piece do the talking. I prepare each item carefully, remove anything that might interfere with adhesion, and then paint by hand in colours chosen for your room and how you live in it. From quiet neutrals to more confident Gustavian or French inspired palettes, every finish is sealed to suit its job, with softer waxes for bedrooms and tougher lacquers for kitchens and heavy use pieces. The idea is simple: keep the structure, refresh the surface and help the furniture settle into your life.
