Surface damage
Scratches, dents and faded finishes are sanded, filled and refinished to match the rest of the piece.
East Rand Carpentry repairs and restores wooden furniture for homes and offices in Benoni, Boksburg, Brakpan, Germiston, Kempton Park and Springs. We fix what is broken, refinish what is worn and keep the character that makes the piece yours.
Good wooden furniture is often worth saving. A quick glue-and-paint job only hides the damage for a while. We find out why the piece failed, repair the structure first and then restore the finish, so it is solid to use and good to look at again.

Every restoration starts with a close look. We check the joints, the frame and the surface, then tell you honestly what can be saved and what it will take.
Structural repairs come first. We reglue and reinforce loose joints, rebuild broken legs and frames, and get drawers and doors running properly again.
Then we restore the surface. Old varnish and paint are stripped, scratches and marks are sanded and filled, and the piece is stained and sealed to bring back its natural tone or match a new colour for your room.
Whatever happened to your furniture, we can usually bring it back.

Often, yes. Solid wooden furniture and family pieces are usually worth restoring, and many are built better than what you can buy today. We look at the piece first and tell you honestly if it is worth the cost.
It depends on the size of the piece and how much work it needs. A small surface repair costs far less than a full strip and refinish. We give you a free quote after we see the piece or photos of it.
In most cases, yes. Marks, rings and light swelling can be treated and the surface refinished. Deep damage may need the top stripped and refinished in full, and we will explain this up front.
