Specialist restoration and conservation of metalwork, including silversmithing, plating, casting, locks and keys, general repairs, cleaning and polishing.

Metal Conservation Services

Charles Perry Restorations offers specialist expertise in the conservation and restoration of metal objects, decorative metalwork and historic fittings. These items often require a careful balance of practical repair, visual refinement and respect for original materials.

Our work includes silversmithing, plating, casting, locks and keys, general repairs, cleaning and polishing. Each object is assessed individually so that the most appropriate treatment can be recommended, whether the priority is stabilisation, appearance, function or long-term preservation.

Precision Restoration

Metal restoration requires specialist craftsmanship, material knowledge and careful finishing. Whether working with silver, plated surfaces, cast elements, decorative hardware or historic locking mechanisms, our aim is to retain original character while addressing deterioration or damage.

Some pieces require careful cleaning and polishing to revive their appearance, while others need more involved repair, replacement of missing elements or sympathetic reconstruction. Our approach is always led by the condition of the object and the level of intervention required.
