Quality furniture repair,
at affordable rates.
My Services
Located in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, I specialize in repair and refinishing of antique furniture. I can repair most antique wooden furniture but do not handle metals or glass. I serve Amherst, VA and the surrounding areas. Whether you're near my home base in Amherst or closer to Richmond, Charlottesville, or Lynchburg, you can expect the same level of friendly service and expert guidance.
My Promise
Whether it’s time to refinish the old and wearing exterior of your furniture, repair and refurbish, or complete any customization you have in mind, I’ll work with you to determine the best course of service and perform the job to the best of my ability. Your satisfaction will mark the end of the project. Learn about my most common courses of service:
-
Furniture gets used and abused with regular use over time. Joints loosen, veneer separates, and wooden parts break or go missing. Furniture repair is the process of restoring broken or worn furniture to a usable condition. I can re-glue loose joinery with modern adhesives, stabilize veneer, repair breaks, and duplicate lost parts.
-
Wood furniture adds warmth and character to any home. However, scratches, dents, and marks that occur from regular use can detract from the charm of the piece. Furniture refurbishing is the process of ‘brightening up’ the appearance of old, worn-out furniture. I can fill scratches, re-color dents, and touch up worn corners.
-
As furniture ages, the finish wears down. Lacquer chips and cracks. Antique oil and shellac finishes wear off, exposing the wood. Furniture refinishing is the process of removing the existing finish, and then applying a new finish. My refinishing procedure: hand strip the old finish, sand to perfection, wipe on a fresh base tone stain, enhance the color with spray toning, and apply a new top coat to lock in the formula.
