Here is a recent example of what we do here at Green and Cockburn Antique Restoration. This clock had an unfortunate tumble down the stairs leaving it in pieces. Once thought to be unrestorable, it has now been fully repaired in our workshops.
From Minor Repairs to Complete Restoration of Antiques
We pride ourselves in what we call 'invisible' repairs. This means that if we have restored an antique table, chair or a clock case, you should not be able to see where the repair has been carried out. Please browse through our other examples of antique clock repairs and antique furniture restoration projects. We think you will agree that our repair and conservation work is of the highest standard, and you can trust us to provide the best restoration service possible with your much beloved and cherished antiques.
