Care for preloved chairs

THERE’S no need to throw away much-loved worn out chairs and furniture.
Mount Evelyn Upholstery’s Luke Wilson can restore them to their former glory.
A master craftsman, Luke specialises in antique restoration and recovery and repairs to all types of furniture. He can readily handle both old and new pieces.
“I really get a kick out of seeing someone’s smiling face when I deliver back a piece of furniture in original condition that may have been in the family for a long time,” he said.
“It’s probably the main reason I got into this business in the first place.”
Luke has been fine-tuning his craft and restoring and building old and new furniture for the past 21 years.
He can strip a piece right back to the bare frame and check the structural integrity or re-cover, re-spring and spruce up.
“I re-dowel and re-glue if needed and have a great range of fabrics to choose from,” Luke said.
“I also provide free fabric protection. It really does depend on what the customer wants.”
Luke offers discounts for pensioners and is happy to provide free quotes.
“Part of my service includes a no-obligation visit to a house with sample books to discuss colours and the work required,” he said.
“Alternatively, I have a free pick-up and delivery service available.”
“I design and craft everything from lounges, chairs and sofas to ottomans, using quality materials.”
“This opens the door for people who want me to create an individual or one-off piece especially for them.”
Luke guarantees all workmanship.
So when quality workmanship and materials are required, along with friendly and honest service, contact Mount Evelyn Upholstery on 9737 1187 or 0402 020 554.
