architect furniture specification Miami: a leather sofa being worked on in a Miami home

architect furniture specification Miami Specified Before It Is Bought

The cheapest moment to prevent a failure is in the specification. Most of what we repair in Miami was chosen without anyone asking what the room would do to it.

What this is

What The Job Actually Is

Every architect furniture specification Miami booking turns on one thing: advice at specification stage. Everything below follows from that.

Glass, salt, cleaning routine and traffic, in that order.

Our advice goes in writing so it can be referenced.

Before you book

Where It Works, Where It Stops

We would rather say no on the phone than take a piece we cannot put right. These are the honest edges of the job.

How the work runs

Four Steps, In Order

Done at your address unless the piece has to travel.

01

Read it

What the damage is, before what it costs.

02

Clean

Oils and salt off, so nothing seals underneath.

03

Rebuild

Fill and colour only as deep as the fault goes.

04

Seal

Sheen matched across the panel, checked in your light.

What A Photograph Shows

Common Questions

Do you charge for specification advice?

No. It prevents the work we would otherwise be called back for.

Can you test a sample in our space?

Yes, and we recommend it for anything near glass or salt air.

Is the visit free?

Yes, with a written price before anything is booked.

Do you work on site?

Almost always. The piece stays where it is and the kit comes to you.

What do you need from me?

Two photographs. One wide enough to show the piece, one close on the damage.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Miami-Dade. Start at the county page.
