Glue Size: When veneer is showing signs of delamination a clear penetrating glue is applied to the entire face of the delaminating veneer. The glue is then allowed to dry. The veneer face is then thoroughly sanded prior to the application of stain.

 

Reupholstery: Our reupholstery process includes the vertical and horizontal matching of all patterns. All upholstered sections are crowned appropriately to eliminate any flat visual perspectives. All seat cushions are generously crowned. All medium density loaded polyfoam has a polyfoam density rating of 2.7 pounds per cubic foot.
