Client Testimonials

Thank you Richard for another excellent piece of work – smaller than the kitchen or staircase but nonetheless our rejuvenated oak tables are much appreciated.

Ashley Croft

Richard undertook some fabulous work for me on my new glass and mahogany staircase, managing to even the tones and graining of the handrail, beading and newel posts. I have had so many compliments about it thanks to Richard’s incredible craftsmanship. I also had restoration work done on a mahogany desk set and sideboard – stripped and restored – as if new. Fantastic!

Claire Sales

True craftsmanship Mr Parsons work exceed our expectations. Thank you for beautify restoring our antique mahogany cabinet.
