Repairing interior joinery, replacing doors and cabinetry, and renewing varnish and lacquer finishes.
Wood inside a yacht wears far faster than furniture ashore, because of humidity, salt and constant movement. Varnish fails, cabinet hinges work loose, and corners start to crack and lift.
In this service we repair interior joinery, replace parts where needed, and renew the surface in varnish or lacquer.
Our approach is repair before replace: the texture and colour of existing timber rarely match a newly made part exactly, so we prioritise saving the original piece.
Our scope in woodwork and furniture:
The timber species, the existing finish (varnish, lacquer, oil) and the depth of damage are identified, and we establish whether repair or replacement is needed.
Scope and schedule are shared. Where replacement is needed, samples are worked up to match the colour and grain of the existing woodwork.
Repairs are made in place; where a new part is needed it is made to measure and fitted. Surrounding upholstery and surfaces are protected throughout.
The surface is sanded and renewed in varnish or lacquer, given its full curing time, and inspected together at handover.
Interior joinery does more than anything else to set the perceived value of a yacht; worn cabin woodwork makes the whole interior look dated.
We already see the condition of the woodwork closely during interior care. By taking on repair, replacement and finish renewal too, we remove the need to find a separate joiner and run the work through one point of contact.
