REMEDIATION SERVICES
We pride ourselves in preserving and restoring items initially thought to be damaged beyond repair, using advanced restoration techniques and specialist products. Remediation services are primarily oriented towards meaningful response to post-disaster situations.
We have a full understanding of clients’ diverse needs and expectations in both residential and commercial claims. Over the 18 years we developed numerous techniques, administrative actions and provided logistical support resulting in alleviating clients’ concerns and overall and timeous reinstatement to pre-damage state.
We are firm believers in the premise that “Everything needs to be done right” and pride ourselves in refusing to take any shortcuts.

RESTORATION & REFURBISHMENT
With advances in quality of materials and production processes many items can outlast perceived life expectancy. Whilst this might be true for a small portion of household contents only, commercial items can last for years, if not decades needing replacement only if totally neglected or as a part of mayor revamp. If one takes food retail sector as an example, various shelving, counters and displays might reach the end of useful life due to the need to introduce a “Fresh Look” to the store, but most of the refrigeration, butchery, bakery and similar equipment can be successfully refurbished at a fraction of the price when compared to replacement. Such items are manufactured in durable materials (stainless steel and alike) and require replacement of wear-and-tear components in order to prolong its useful life.
SRT is unique in this field, as we offer both aesthetic and functional restoration and refurbishment of almost all commercial – level items imaginable. In keeping with our commitment to the client, we do not accept any items for just ‘’quick repairs’’ but rather dedicate our effort to providing unique and value-for-money service, with no compromises on quality and safety standards.
Over the years, we developed good working relationships with dedicated specialist service providers and agents and include them in the service and/or repair of items that they specialize in. This way we ensure that our refurbishment process ensures the item not only looks good, but can serve for many years to come. Most of refurbished items are returned to the client with a reasonable guarantee period, which is dependent on type of the item and extent of refurbishment process.

Manufacturing and Installations
JOINERY
The very first association to restoration anyone would have, is most likely FURNITURE. Being a semi-permanent asset and passed down for generations, valued pieces will undergo a refurbishment of some sort or another over the years. A common misconception is allowing general restoration companies to perform restoration on items affected by fire and/or flood damage.
SRT is avoiding the generally accepted restoration methods for these scenarios by providing services that are truly needed in said situation – being decontamination, drying, neutralization of acidic build up, non-abrasive removal of charred / singed layers and so on. Only following such processes, items would undergo re-surfacing and repairs, which are commonly known as “Furniture Restoration”.
6 years ago, we decided to strengthen and further develop this service by opening a fully-fledged joinery workshop with industrial machinery, dedicated spray painting facility and assembly line for flat board joinery and shop fittings. Over the years we trained and upskilled our employees to the standard required in this very challenging line of work and managed to build a skill pool able to respond to any request / problem posed by the clients / insurers.
Our competent teams are currently providing the following services:
- Colour and texture matching of most finishes;
- Stressed, antiqued and other paint techniques to match or re-surface in desired finish;
- Straightening of warped solid wood table tops and alike;
- Complete rebuild of affected items, including re-upholstery, padding replacement, frame reinforcement and structure repairs;
- Bactericidal and fungicidal treatments to internal sections of soft furnishings affected by water;
- Re-build of affected sections, including carvings and similar by using most modern materials - epoxies, composites, polyurethanes, and alike;
- Various "underpinning" and other reinforcing techniques used to strengthen breakages, cracks and similar damage sustained during transport;
Give us a call with your specific issue / problem - chances are very good that WE HAVE DONE IT BEFORE!
CUSTOM DESIGNS
Over the years our joinery department has progressed into fully fledged custom design and manufacturing facility. During that period, we developed specialised techniques and skill pool resulting in quality of the finished product that goes way above “acceptable” in built-in furniture, shop fittings, decorative, free-standing items and alike..
By using Computer Aided Design (AutoCad, SketchUp and similar) we can turn your ideas into practical, achievable and cost-efficient objects that would stand the test of time and serve their purpose for years to come. Developments in CNC machining enables us to manufacture these items to exact spec stipulated on the mutually agreed design, or in deed propose new approach, which could result in major savings and better quality of the final product.
We can offer assistance and advice on technical issues when choosing materials, finishes, joining and hanging techniques, design of various sub-frames, brackets, load bearers and alike, with the view on safety, practicality and life span of the item. These are properly documented and can be sent for review by structural engineer, if required.
Our manufacturing facility is not limited to wood, flat board and similar materials only. We manufacture items in mild and stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, composites and various plastics, such as PVC, HDPE, Nylon, Perspex and similar. Knowledge of physical characteristics of most of the materials enables us to use them safely and incorporate various other features such as LED lights, switchgear, display panels / TV’s, water features and alike. Similarly, we can develop items and propose finishes that are safe to use in adverse environments, such as exposure to water, steam / high humidity, sun and excessive wear and tear of any kind. Over the years, we developed good working relationships with many suppliers and sub-contractors and can offer various related outsourced services.
