We are dedicated to the art and trade of furniture repair and restoration. We will carefully take your fine furniture, family heirlooms, or garage sale treasures and restore them to the condition that mirrors the vision of their original craftsmen.
Returning the original beauty of the wood used in these pieces is not achieved quickly, but neither was the process that brought your furniture to its current condition. Restoration done properly is a labor of craft and time. We are confident you will find it time well spent.

A. The best advise would be to visit different shops to see their operation and the type of work they produce.
Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?
A. Do they know if their piece is painted and do they have the size of the item. Photos that can be sent via email are also helpful.

Q. How did you decide to get in your line of work?
A. I had a part time job in an antique shop while in college. I enjoyed the job more than school. What I was doing had so much to offer as a career. I finished my AA in fine arts and opened my shop. Thus began my career restoring antiques.
Q. Do you do any sort of continuing education to stay up on the latest developments in your field?
A. I belong to a daily email exchange of restoration professionals from around the country. We share questions and answers and together raise the educational level of the restoration community.
