Specialist French Polishing, Wood Restoration & Fine Finishing Across Sussex

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides specialist French polishing, wood finishing, furniture restoration and timber restoration throughout Sussex.

From period homes and country properties to contemporary interiors, bespoke joinery and commercial spaces, we specialise in restoring, refinishing and protecting timber to create beautiful, long-lasting finishes.

Whether you have an antique piece of furniture that needs careful restoration, an original staircase that requires refinishing, new joinery that needs colour matching or a tired wooden floor that needs bringing back to life, our experienced approach is tailored to the individual project.

We combine traditional craftsmanship with modern finishing techniques, working carefully with the natural character of the timber to achieve a finish that complements the property and its interior.

French Polishing Sussex

French polishing is a traditional hand-finishing technique renowned for its depth, warmth and beautiful sheen. It allows the natural grain and character of timber to remain visible while providing a refined and protective finish.

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides professional French polishing in Sussex for furniture, architectural woodwork, joinery and interiors.

Our French polishing services include:

• Antique and period furniture

• Dining tables

• Desks

• Cabinets and cupboards

• Wooden doors

• Staircases and handrails

• Wall panelling

• Bespoke joinery

• Architectural woodwork

• Residential interiors

• Commercial and hospitality interiors

Every project is assessed individually to establish the condition of the timber and the most appropriate preparation and finishing process.

Furniture Restoration Sussex

Furniture can become scratched, faded, stained and worn through years of use. However, well-made timber furniture can often be restored rather than replaced.

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides furniture restoration and refinishing across Sussex, helping to restore the appearance and character of valuable and much-loved pieces.

We work on:

• Antique furniture

• Dining tables

• Desks

• Cabinets

• Chests and drawers

• Wooden chairs

• Veneered furniture

• Bespoke furniture

• Decorative pieces

• Heirloom furniture

Our approach is to preserve the character of the piece wherever possible while repairing damage and restoring the finish.

Wood Restoration & Refinishing Sussex

Timber naturally changes over time. Exposure to sunlight, moisture, everyday use and previous coatings can all affect its appearance.

Our wood restoration and refinishing services in Sussex can help restore tired or damaged timber and extend the life of existing woodwork.

Depending on the project, our work can include:

• Surface preparation

• Finish removal

• Wood repairs

• Colour matching

• Refinishing

• Protective finishing

• Restoration of existing timber

We work on individual pieces of furniture as well as larger architectural and interior projects.

Joinery Restoration & Finishing

Beautiful joinery deserves a finish that complements its craftsmanship.

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides specialist joinery restoration and finishing throughout Sussex, working with both existing and newly installed timber.

Our services include:

• Staircases

• Handrails

• Balustrades

• Doors

• Wall panelling

• Bespoke cabinetry

• Built-in furniture

• Architectural joinery

• New joinery finishing

• Restoration of existing woodwork

Where new joinery needs to sit alongside original timber, we can provide bespoke colour matching to create a consistent appearance throughout the interior.

Bespoke Wood Colour Matching Sussex

Matching new timber to existing furniture or architectural woodwork can be challenging without specialist knowledge.

We provide bespoke wood colour matching in Sussex, developing finishes to complement surrounding timber and interior features.

This can be particularly useful for:

• Period property renovations

• Country homes

• New extensions

• Bespoke joinery

• Interior refurbishment

• Furniture restoration

• Replacement timber components

• Interior design projects

Rather than simply using a standard stain or colour, we can tailor the finish to the individual requirements of the project.

Wood Repairs Sussex

Damage to timber does not always mean that the whole piece needs replacing.

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides major and minor wood repairs throughout Sussex, helping restore damaged furniture, joinery and architectural woodwork.

We can address scratches, dents, worn areas and other forms of damage before refinishing the timber.

Where practical, our restoration-first approach helps retain original materials and character, particularly when working with antique furniture, period properties and original architectural features.

Floor Sanding & Wood Floor Refinishing Sussex

A well-maintained wooden floor can become a defining feature of an interior. Over time, however, everyday foot traffic can leave floors scratched, dull and worn.

Our wood floor sanding and refinishing services in Sussex can help restore tired timber floors and improve their appearance and protection.

Depending on the condition of the floor, the process may include preparation, sanding, repairs, colour adjustment and application of a suitable protective finish.

Professional refinishing can be an excellent way to refresh an existing timber floor without replacing it entirely.

Paint & Finish Removal

Older paint, varnish and coatings can sometimes hide the natural beauty of timber.

Stonebridge Fine Finishing provides paint, varnish and finish removal in Sussex for furniture, joinery and wooden surfaces.

Careful removal and preparation can reveal the underlying timber and provide a suitable foundation for restoration or a new bespoke finish.

Each property presents its own requirements when it comes to timber.

At Stonebridge Fine Finishing, we take the time to understand the timber, the property and the desired result before deciding on the most suitable finishing approach.
