One of the legs of our dining table recently broke. We need a handy carpenter to either rebuild the leg, or fix the current one. Click on below dropbox link to see PDF containing images and details of the break. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/yedzvkixliwfwil7o04j8/Our-dining-table.pdf?rlkey=dg6pqiic0g2pkayyxz56j8k1t&dl=0

We had a broken dining table leg on a three-leg pedestal base, which made repair tricky. He handcrafted a new leg to match the original design and colour, and helped re-assemble the table. The new leg looks even better than the original, and he added protective floor pads for stability. We’re so happy with the result — he completely exceeded our expectations. Excellent service: personable, quick, and went above and beyond. Highly recommend!
