Restoring furniture has been a labor of love as long as we have been in business. We love antiques, but we also understand that, old or new, modern or antique, a person's furniture is a part of the person. Restoration does not always mean making an old piece of furniture look new. Sometimes restoration means making the piece look the way it did right before the latest damage occurred. Mom wants to remember every mark on her son's high chair except the broken leg the movers caused, so we strive to repair the break and preserve the history of her child's chair.

We take care to understand what you want done while providing quality furniture restoration and repair services.

Furniture Restoration

The key to quality furniture restoration is to preserve the integrity of the original piece. Therefore, at Carrison's Restoration, we recommend restoring only the damaged or lost areas of any piece of furniture.

Our process includes:

Furniture Refinishing Refinishing is an ideal solution when the existing finish is damaged or a new look or color is desired. Carrison's does not dip furniture to strip away the old finish. Here furniture is hand stripped or a flow-over tank is used. This method ensures joints are not dried out and there is no disfiguration of the wood from sitting in lye. Old finish removed by hand. Stained and color toned for a perfect match, or as specified. Each layer of material hand polished for a flawless finish. Each finish sealed by layered coats of protective material for beauty and durability

Furniture Repair

The keys to quality furniture repair are invisibility and durability. Repairs are virtually seamless; no job should compromise a piece's integrity or current value. Each repair is done so that the area that failed will not fail again under normal use.

We can: Repair fire, smoke, water and pet damage. Re-fabricate and replace missing parts. Raise dents and fill gouges. Reinforce loose joints and re-glue.

Is the damage due to a move? Carrison's works with many insurance companies and can provide the needed estimate to get your military move or other mover claim processed.
