Our dining table had loose legs and water rings. Callum tightened the joints and hand-waxed the oak top. It looks solid and natural again.
David M., Newcastle upon Tyne, GBPunctual collection from our home in Jesmond. The walnut dresser drawer runners now slide smoothly without sticking. Superb craftsmanship.
Eleanor P., Newcastle upon Tyne, GBTwo oak chairs were wobbling badly. They were stripped of old brittle glue and clamped properly. Very stable work and reasonable pricing.
