Furniture Restoration

Furniture restoration is the art of restoring furniture to either look newer, to provide functionality or to preserve in order to avoid further deterioration. The main focus is on the conservation and restoration of wooden furniture in Maine and New England. The two general areas in which we specialize in are: structure and refinish. Furniture has been around for most of human existence, furniture restoration came to light in the late 19th century as a means to preserve historical and culturally valuable furniture and now it’s become a dying art with only a few restorers left in New England. Maine Steamer Trunk Company has been in the furniture industry for around 30+ years, starting on movie sets and now restoring furniture for the people of greater New England and beyond.

Thank you for the wonderful work you do! The trunk I purchased from you yesterday looks wonderful in the house. It was also hard not to buy the stagecoach, will all the history they posses. Thanks again for the time and effort you clearly put into your restoration work.

Thank you for delivering my beautiful trunk! Although I was originally a little taken back by the greenish tint of the wood, it is now really growing on me and looks great in the front room with the other neutral colors.

Finding Maine Steamer Trunk Company was an unexpected and pleasant surprise for my husband and I. I have been wanting an antique trunk for many years now but, have never found one in a condition that I would want in my home. The trunk I purchased is absolutely gorgeous and will make a lovely collectible. We love it so much and think it has been so beautifully refurbished that we plan on bringing a trunk we already own to be refreshed. Such an original and thoughtful gift for somebody who loves the history of travel and enjoys having one of a kind items in their collections!

My wife and I had the great pleasure of being their first customer. Johns craftsmanship and attention to detail are second to none. We also learned a little something about the history of the pieces. Thanks again for a great piece that we’ll treasure forever. Highly recommended.

Thank you John at Maine Steamer Trunk Company for refinishing our family trunk! It’s absolutely beautiful!

– Johnna Coggin

We love how it came out! And even though this isn’t an “heirloom” piece, we have so many memories of littles playing under the table, and rolling out pie dough when they got older. Glad you brought it back to life!
