Antique restorations in Sussex and Surrey seek to work on older or valuable pieces of furniture or objects to restore them to a condition that is as close to the original as possible. Restoration might also be carried out to protect a piece from deterioration and preserve it for future generations. If you have valued pieces that need loving attention from a team of experts, A. E. Booth & Son have the skill and the patience. The piece that you would like restoring must be assessed and your wishes as the client will be taken into account.
If you have old furniture you love but has seen better days, it's worth considering whether reupholstery in Sussex and Surrey could give it a new lease of life. A. E. Booth & Son can restore your piece to its former glory by replacing its padding, webbing springs and the fabric or leather that covers it. If your furniture piece has financial or sentimental value, or both, but has suffered the ravages of time, you don't have to discard it. Older furniture was often more sturdily constructed than modern pieces and has charm, elegance and history that can be hard to replace with off-the-shelf furniture from high street stores.
As well as taking routine commissions from members of the public, we at A. E. Booth & Son also carry out some insurance work on antique restoration, renovation and repair of reproduction and modern furniture and items. If you are interested in this service, please contact our helpful team for more information. Over recent years, we have developed positive relationships with a number of insurance companies who use our services for insurance work. We are able to carry out the work needed to restore a damaged or broken piece to as near to its original state as possible.
Alongside our antiques work, we also carry out reproduction and modern restoration services on items that may not have the same long history but nonetheless have value for other reasons. As with our other services, we aim to deliver only the very highest standards of workmanship which, allied with the quality of materials that we use, means that we can breathe a new lease of life into your reproduction or modern furniture. Reproduction furniture consists of pieces that have been made to imitate or copy a popular style from the past.
French polishing is just one of the wood finishing techniques that we are able to apply or restore here at A. E. Booth & Son. It is one of the most popular for antiques and reproduction pieces of furniture and serves to enhance the beauty of the natural wood. Ring to enquire about our French polishing services for your furniture. French polish is not a type of substance applied to wood, but a technique used to bring out its sheen. It involves applying layer upon layer of shellac, each one thinly applied with a rubbing pad called a fad in a repeated, circular motion.
