Teak furniture restoration

Recommended Posts

I have a set of outdoor teak furniture that need some work of restoration (cleaning with sandpaper and/or acid, and oil coating).

Does somebody have a suggestion for a carpenter/painter that could make a good job, better if in Rawai area ?

Please refrain from suggesting me to do the work by myself:  I am a bit old, and I have already completed the part of furniture cleaning assigned to my life ????

We're in Rawai.

We had a set of outdoor teak furniture restored last year: a table and four chairs.

It was jet-washed, sanded and varnished.

It looked a million times better afterwards: it went from weathered grey to rich and slightly-shiny teak colour.

It was done by our Burmese jack-of-all-trades, Joe.
He had four men going at it. I can't remember the exact cost, but it was less than 5,000 THB.

 

Bear in mind that this wasn't antique furniture, so 'restoration' may be the wrong word. However, it started off looking bad, and ended up looking great!

Please pm me if you'd like his details.

I recommend checking out some local carpenters in Rawai to restore your outdoor teak furniture. You might want to try Rawai Beach Furniture; they have an excellent reputation for quality work. Another option could be Teak and More, known for its expertise in teak wood.
