What our clients say...
I had a linen box restored by Revive Restoration. It doesn’t have a high monetary value, but it is very sentimental to me, having been passed down from my grandmother. The polish on the top of the box had began to flake off, and it had been bleached by the sun. Steve managed to restore it back to its original condition when I thought was well beyond repair! Now it has pride of place and I am proud to show off its beauty.
