In this 35 minute video I'm going in to detail about this built-in alcove unit installation in a 19th century Victorian property in the UK. Full job costings of what I actually charged the customer and lots of detailed build information.
I'm no expert with antique furniture repair but I love doing it. You might have already seen the public version of this video over on YouTube. In this special member-only version I'll explain exactly how much it cost to carry out a repair like this.
