Welcome to Second Act Restorations (formerly Sunderland Restorations), where we specialize in the restoration and repair of antique and fine furniture.
Some days are opportunities for improvement! It’s time to rethink our shop’s spray area so it has more efficient extraction. Stay tuned for the changes!
The oak dining table saga continues! Today she was stained a lovely medium brown colour. Enjoy!

Fixed up this lovely lady this week. She’s been touched up, polished and has brand new upholstery. AND….. She’s for sale! If you’re interested, message me for details! Her video will be posted shortly!
Just a short video of our oxalic acid-treated oak table top. Super speed because sanding videos are not that exciting! 😂😂

Did a fun little job with a friend on Saturday. She saw some original tile work poking through the cream-coloured paint around her fireplace. An hour later the two of us had removed all the paint and restored the fireplace’s original tiles. Absolutely stunning!! Also, we each did one side and had a race to see who finished first. I……now owe her a coffee. 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤣🤣
Here’s the video of our latest project. Enjoy! And as always, like, comment, and share if you did enjoy it. 🙂🙂
