The firm

A family workshop, since 1974

C M Booker has been restoring fine furniture since 1974, and is still run by the same family. We work on pieces that matter — antiques handed down through generations, and furniture chosen to last a lifetime.

Most work is carried out at our Surrey workshop or on site in your home, across London and Surrey. We work directly with homeowners, as well as with interior designers and architects on client projects.

What we do

Three areas of work

Each piece is looked after from first inspection to final finish, by the same small team throughout.

"We don't rush a French polish. Some finishes take three days to get right — so we take three days."
