Wicker Season Coming Soon

With the advancing spring and summer seasons coming, now is a great time to assess the condition of your wicker and patio furniture.  We provide repair, reconditioning, and restoration sevices for all types of wicker, resin, vinyl, and plastic woven seating for wood, rattan, metal, and aluminum framing.  Small area repairs can maintain your furnishings great look on your porch, pool deck, or three season patio.  Vintage wicker is our speciality. We fabricate the curly ques of Victorian wicker as well as weave the single vinyl webbing strands for the vintage patio furnishings of the 1960's.

We advocate the maintenance of historic outdoor furniture rather than spending money on new products.  Use care and discernment when purchasing resin wicker.  We have encountered some disasterous furnishings when products are made of recycled resin or plastics.  These do not hold up well and may emit hazardous and offensive odors as the material breaks down in the heat and UV exposure, even in protected 3-seasons rooms.

Your best investment may be in refurbishing or restoring preowned furniture. These can be found in various used furniture and antique stores, flea markets, yard sales, consignment shops, and even along the side of the street during spring cleaning pickup days.

One of the best investments is kids wicker or rattan furniture.  These are cute decorative items that kids can use.  Place a teddy bear in the seat for an adorable touch in the living area.  These can be restored economically and they don't take up a lot of space.

Let us know how we can help you to bring family heirlooms to life in your home.
