What gets repaired

Keep the good parts. Fix the problem.

Every job starts with understanding what has failed. The aim is a solid, practical repair that respects the original material instead of replacing more than necessary.

01 / FURNITURE

Furniture structural repair

Loose chairs, unstable frames, damaged legs, rails, joints and support structures.

02 / CABINETRY

Built-in cabinet repair

Kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, vanities and fixed joinery that have moved, split or stopped working properly.

03 / FLOORS

Timber floor repair

Localised repairs for damaged boards, gaps, movement and selected worn or affected areas.

04 / DOORS & DRAWERS

Alignment & hardware

Sticking drawers, sagging doors, failed runners, loose hinges, handles and other hardware.

05 / SURFACES

Timber & veneer damage

Cracks, splits, lifting veneer and surface damage assessed for careful, targeted repair.

06 / VINTAGE

Mid-century restoration

Repairs that preserve the original construction, character and useful life of vintage timber pieces.

Repair before replacement

A stronger result with less waste.

Older furniture and household joinery can be easy to damage with the wrong glue, fasteners or aggressive sanding. Jia-Yan assesses the construction first, then chooses a repair suited to the timber and the way the piece was made.

Common questions

Before you enquire.

Photos are the fastest way to understand whether a repair is likely to be practical.

What photos should I send?

Include one photo of the whole item or area, several close-ups of the damage and a view showing how the affected part connects to the rest.

Do you repair both freestanding furniture and fixed cabinets?

Yes. Enquiries are welcome for tables, chairs, cabinets and vintage pieces as well as built-in cupboards, wardrobes and kitchen joinery.

Can every timber floor problem be repaired locally?

Not always. Some damage can be treated as a local repair, while widespread moisture, movement or finish failure may need a flooring specialist. The photos and site condition help determine the right approach.

Do you refinish an entire piece?

The service is repair-led. Surface work is considered where it supports the repair or makes sense for the piece; the scope is discussed before work starts.
