Sully Restoration performed a miracle for me! I had an 18th Century dining table leaf that had lost a leg, was chipped and coming apart at the head, and had numerous scratches and patches of discolouration to the wood on the upper surface. They advised me that restoration was still possible, and that the age of the piece and the quality of the wood would justify those efforts. Since the item had very high sentimental value to me, I agreed to let them handle it. What came back was more beautiful than I ever could have imagined: it’s remarkable to me that a piece so old and significantly damaged could return looking as if it had been perfectly preserved since the day it had been made. I greatly valued their advice and the care they took in restoring the piece; I have full confidence that it will remain in great condition throughout the time I have it, and that I can comfortably pass it on to my niece or nephew someday.

We highly recommend Sully Restoration. Lydia and Samuel are wonderful people to work with. We have two matching antique cabinets, one was badly damaged during a break in. Samuel, an amazing craftsman and artist, restored that damaged cabinet. The workmanship and finish was so amazing we had Samuel restore the second cabinet.

We worked with Sam and Lydia to restore my grandmother's antique table and they did an absolutely amazing job. Sam is truly an expert craftsman. The table itself was beautiful before but not very functional (it used to have casters which had been lost a long time ago and was too short to comfortably sit under without them). We wanted to make the table more functional while also maintaining its integrity. When we brought the table for an estimate we were immediately impressed by Sam and Lydia's passion and attention to detail. We needed to make the table top larger and increase the height; Sam disassembled the table, reinforced it and created an entirely new border that matches the original border exactly. The new border is made from solid wood but Sam was able to patina it to match the tiles (he was even able to re-create one of the knots which is indistinguishable from the original!). The end result came out perfectly, Sam's process ensured that the table retained it's original character and we are thrilled with the final product.

I brought my grandmother’s beautiful end table to Sully Restoration for repair. It’s one of a pair and had been out of commission for a while because one of its legs had ripped away and detached from the center of the table. Lydia and her husband, Samuel, assessed the damage at their workshop (I believe they can also assess from photos if needed). The turnaround time was about two weeks—including a holiday—which felt impressively quick. The result is absolutely stunning. The table stands perfectly again, and they added a wax finish that brings out the wood’s natural shine. Now I need to bring in the second end table for some TLC because it looks a little dull in comparison! Thank you, Lydia and Samuel, for your hard work and the care you put into each piece. I highly recommend Sully Restoration for all your furniture needs.
