At CT Furniture Restoration, we specialize in the repair and restoration of damaged furniture, whether caused by water, fire, moving accidents, or years of wear. From veneer lifting to broken frames, we provide skilled, material-appropriate repairs that restore both structure and appearance — without over-restoring or compromising the integrity of the original piece.

We work with homeowners, designers, and dealers throughout Fairfield County, Connecticut, and accept nationwide projects with pickup and delivery available.

What We Restore

We repair antiques, Mid-Century Modern furniture, and contemporary wood and upholstered pieces. Damage can come from flooding, long-term humidity, accidental drops during a move, or improper storage. We carefully assess each piece before creating a tailored repair plan.

Common damage types we restore:

• Water damage from floods, leaks, or spills

• Surface burns or smoke residue

• Structural cracks or loose joints

• Dented corners, chips, or gouges

• Heat rings and finish clouding

• Swollen or warped wood from moisture

• Broken legs, arms, or rails

• Separated veneer or inlay damage

• Hardware damage or loss during transit

Damage Restoration Services

Each restoration begins with an evaluation of the damage — whether cosmetic, structural, or both. Our services include:

• Frame and Joinery Repair
  Re-gluing loose joints, stabilizing broken frames, and rebuilding missing sections using era-appropriate materials and methods.

• Surface Repair & Refinishing
  Sanding, blending, and reapplying finishes to match the original tone and sheen. We treat clouding, white rings, and dullness caused by heat or moisture.

• Veneer and Inlay Repair
  Re-securing lifted veneer, replacing missing sections, and matching grain patterns for seamless repairs.

• Smoke & Soot Removal
  Carefully removing smoke residue from wood surfaces without damaging underlying finishes.

• Water Damage Correction
  Flattening warped surfaces, re-gluing separated joints, and drying out moisture-compromised wood before refinishing.

• Cushion and Upholstery Repair
  Repairing or replacing padding and recovering upholstery when damaged by water, pests, or heavy wear.
