Questions about this service
Do you need to take the chair to the workshop?
Yes. Proper clamping requires flat benches and sash clamps.
Can you fix split legs?
Yes. We glue clean splits along the grain with interior splines.
How long does the adhesive cure take?
The frame remains in clamps for twenty-four hours.
Our Workshop Guarantee
Every repaired joint holds firm under regular household use. If an adhesive bond fails within twelve months, we collect and re-clamp the piece at our expense. Honest craftsmanship with no fuss. Pricing & payment
