Joy in Wood!, Topsham, Maine

We have repaired and restored a limitless variety of antique furnishings dating from the 16th through the 19th century. We NEVER strip and refinish. Instead all our repairs, whether to the existing finish or when missing parts or pieces must be fashioned, are artfully concealed by blending with the original color and patina of the surrounding surfaces. Our customers often say they cannot find where repairs have been made! A skillset learned through years of experience. We do not strip and refinish furniture or do chair caning. References are available for qualified customers. Estimates are not given by phone. The subtleties of each individual situation make it impossible to quote firm estimates until the project has been physically examined to determine what is required for a professional restoration. Please call for an appointment.
