Our Projects - Start to Finish

Occasionally we like to document our efforts and show you, step by step, what goes into the restoration process. Below is a sampling of projects that we've photographed throughout the restoration and explained what's done as each piece is brought back to life.

Richard restored an early 20th century pembroke table that had been in our basement for 20+ years. The table was in poor condition but Richard has restored it to being a beautiful piece of furniture. We are extremely pleased with the restoration and highly recommend Wooden Restorations. We plan to have additional furniture restored. Richard is extremely talented and knowledgable and very pleasant to work with.
