During the Christmas and New Year break families often discover the need for repairs to their much loved heirloom, classic and period furniture. It may become obvious there is the need to re-upholster that loved lounge suite, sofa or armchair with the extra use by visiting guests. Or possibly it’s a sofa at the beach house that has succumbed to the years of family holidays.
The solution is simple. Contact the Wills Bisgrove team on 03 9815 0111. They are the experts at appraising your treasured and loved piece of furniture.
It may be a difficult dilemma to decide what to do with your Heirloom Antiques. Should you repair, restore and re-upholster them or should you replace them with new furniture? Wills Bisgrove can certainly create a piece that is fashioned traditionally by skilled craftsmen and artisans, using the tried and true methods and materials of the trade.
Firstly, consider the real condition of the piece – is it merely cosmetic – fabric, springs, webbing or cushioning? Or is it substantial – the frame, the actual integrity of the piece? For instance, if the frame is insect ridden (wood borers or termites) there is really no purpose in restoring it. In this case it is obvious the best outcome is to engage the Wills Bisgrove team to create a truly beautiful piece of furniture as a suitable replacement.
Wills Bisgrove Furniture, with over 80 years experience in furniture construction and restoration, can provide you with a thorough, honest and knowledgeable assessment. If you decide to proceed with restoration, the Wills Bisgrove team of craftsmen and women will restore your furniture piece to its former glory.
Our Artisans – Upholsterers, Machinists and Seamstresses will repair and restore the entire piece of furniture, not just its coverings. You can be assured of a faithful restoration of your exquisite heirloom piece by the Wills Bisgrove team, who take great pride in recreating the luxury and comfort of the past for your enjoyment.
At Wills Bisgrove, we reupholster and repair lounge suites, sofas, dining chairs, bedheads and ottomans, returning them to you in better condition probably than when first built.
Through the stewardship and direction of Paul Newham, the son of the original upholsterers from the Newham family – the creators of the Wills Bisgrove Furniture range, Wills Bisgrove Furniture maintains a strong connection with the craftsmanship and artisanship of the trade in earlier times.
The same rigid quality standards of the original factory are maintained today ensuring the same gold stamp of excellence identifies a Wills Bisgrove Furniture creation or restoration.
