The older furniture you own, inherited, or are thinking about refinishing or repairing is an important part of history. It’s probably made of better material (real woods and wood veneers) and was crafted to be durable and serviceable for many years. If you have purchased new furniture recently you can typically see the difference. With less quantity and quality of raw materials these days, most new furniture is made from ground paper and wood pulp with an ever thinning wood veneer and basic construction techniques that are questionable at best. Use of plastics is at an all time high. Although newer furniture is somewhat serviceable, it can also be more expensive to repair than your older, high quality solid wood pieces.
Expert refinishing brings back those vibrant original colors and showcases the wood under modern, more durable coatings - offering beauty and protection. Quality structural and cosmetic repair can economically put a piece back in service that may have been otherwise discarded.
