I had a newly laid wooden floor sanded, stained and lacquered by this company and they did a very good job. We wanted the floor to be a very particular colour as we are doing a renovation of a Victorian house and they were very helpful and patient with colour testing the various options for the stain and the finished floor looks beautiful. They were friendly, clean, efficient and professional and we were very pleased with the results.

Very prompt, clear and comprehensive quote with helpful company details and complaints procedure. Easy to arrange pick up and delivery times. Efficient and pleasant service. Offered a discount when finished product was not up to his usual high standards, even though the finish was considerably better and we were pleased with the work.

Renovation and French Polishing of Bookcase

The work involved cleaning, renovating and French polishing a veneer and walnut figured bookcase. The work included casting a new mount from an existing mount to replace a missing one. The works were discussed in detail prior to agreeing to proceed with the work. Removal and return of the bookcase was handled very professionally. I am very happy with the results.

The trader replied (on 25/04/2019)
This piece was a treasured family heirloom a link with the past so I knew the significance that was attached to it. The job included trying to source a replacement cast, brass mount missing from one side. This proved fruitless though I did suspect that to be the case anyway. I suggested casting a new one from resin and faking it to match the existing original. Now the new and old sit side by side and only an expert would be able to differentiate between the two. The remainder of the cabinet was highly figured Walnut or so the client thought but in common with pieces of this age only the top and glazed doors were the rest was grained to look like Walnut which decided the works would have to be confined to a clean and revive only.
