Client Testimonial: Erin Bledsoe (Clayfield)

“My husband and I are long-term clients of Wallrocks and it is our first choice for high quality antiques. We cannot overstate the individual service provided by the Team. They will ensure that a piece will work within the styling of your home and their quality workmanship restores character to the antiques.

Jessica beautifully combines preserving the history of each piece with ensuring it will complement and enhance modern living. She sourced unique pieces for us from France and worked closely with us during the restoration ensuring our functional and atheistic requirements were acheived. It is through Jessica’s customised approach that each piece has always exceeded our expectations.

The pride taken by Wallrocks in delivering each piece is evident and we hope that each of our Wallrocks pieces becomes family heirlooms to be enjoyed by our children and other generations to come.

Jessica and the Team are delightful to work with and it is always a wonderful and exciting experience to visit their showroom in Albion. If you are looking for expertise in sourcing high quality antiques with persoalised restoration services do not look any further than Wallrocks.”

Our craft & The Talented Craftsman

Historically, Wallrocks have only had capacity to restore our own furniture. Now, with the addition of another young and talented restorer, we are in the happy position to be able to perform antique furniture restoration for special pieces belonging to you as well.

The Wallrocks Standard

It is imperative to us that you have your furniture restored in a way that suits your personal taste and home. There is no room for a cookie cutter approach with high quality restoration – we have clients who prefer the hallmarks of age and restoration that respects these…we have clients who prefer their antique to look as it did when the original cabinetmaker completed it 200-300 years ago. After an in-depth discussion with you about your own restoration preferences, we employ the techniques and methods most suited to the end result you desire.

Quality Control

We work with you through the whole process to ensure that you’re up-to-date with the transformation of your antique, and our Directors’ are heavily involved in the quality of output from the workshop. We run tests and samples to show you and work closely between client and restorer to achieve the perfect outcome for you with your antique furniture restoration. Each piece is checked by us prior to leaving the premises for delivery and we guarantee the quality of the end result.

At Wallrocks, we are not into shortcuts and prefer to do things properly. It’s for this reason that we don’t use spray guns for applying polish, nor do we use polyurethane sprays to coat the furniture. We French polish by hand, using only the highest quality products available, and these we import from Europe for the purpose.

Where metalwork is missing on a piece of your furniture, we re-produce high quality gilded bronze to replace it, and our desktop leathers are hand-dyed and gilt-tooled using the same techniques employed in the 18th and 19th centuries.

If you have any questions about how we would restore your special piece, please phone us and we will be only too happy to talk you through it.

Lyndon

Master craftsman Lyndon has been with Wallrocks for 37 years and is undoubtedly one of the most talented restorers in Australia. There is simply no restoration job too complex for him to manage. Lyndon has a vast wealth of knowledge, having completed restoration jobs commissioned for events where the furniture has had to be customised for royalty. With meticulous attention to detail and patience, Lyndon is a master of his craft.

Michael

Trained over several years at Wallrocks under the eagle eyes of Lyndon, Jessica and Wallrocks founder Nick Wallrock, Michael is an up and coming young restorer producing lovely quality workmanship, with an appreciation for retaining and working respectfully with a piece of antique furniture, and preserving the hallmarks of age.
