Repairs & Restorations

“Let’s get rid of our throwaway society.”  

-Donald Dawson

Do you have sentimental items that are tarnished, bent, damaged or broken?

We have restored statues, model airplanes, model ships, lamps, wall sconces, candleholders, chests, chairs, stools, weathervanes, toys, dolls, portholes, tables, vintage relics, jewelry boxes, and even riding stirrups.

If your treasures matter to you, they matter to us.
