At Déjà Vu Restoration, every service is inspired by the same goal: to help you preserve, repair, and reimagine the furniture and artefacts you treasure.
Whether you want to restore a beloved heirloom, revive a tired piece, or commission a new bespoke creation, my specialist craftsmanship ensures your items continue their story for years to come.
Restoration of solid wood, marquetry and inlay
Furniture restoration • Antique restoration • Veneer repair
From broken joints to missing veneer, I repair, reglue, reassemble and mend all forms of solid wood, marquetry and inlay work. Using traditional techniques, I seamlessly patch damaged areas so your piece regains both strength and beauty, extending its life for generations to come.
French polishing
French polishing services • Wood refinishing • Patina restoration
French polishing is one of the most beautiful ways to revive faded, scratched or dull wood. I restore warmth, depth and patina using time-honoured methods, bringing out the natural richness of your furniture while respecting its original character.
Repurposing
New life into old furniture • Restoration and repair
Transforming unused or sentimental items, such as a decommissioned piano, into functional, joyful new furniture is a particular passion of mine. Every piece is handmade with care, precision and creativity. I love uncovering new potential in old wood.
Bespoke cabinet making
Bespoke furniture • Custom cabinet making • Handmade furniture
From concept to creation, I design and craft tailored pieces that enhance your home and reflect your vision. I work at all scales: from the bigger pieces in these photos to smaller personalised commemorative trays and initialled boxes for christening gift.
