When you have furniture for a long period of time, the tendency is for it to wear-down causing the integrity of the piece to be compromised. Structural repair can fall under this category. Structural repairs can encompass a simple repair such as gluing a foot back on a small chest to taking apart a complete piece, recreating a broken or missing part and putting it back together. Glues break down over time and joints become loose and vulnerable to breakage if not repaired in a timely manner. Waiting to re-glue a piece of furniture such as a chair can lead to a more costly repair. Before this happens, let an expert from Guardsman fix the problem; in many cases better than from the factory.

If a piece of furniture breaks, always save the pieces regardless of how small and insignificant they may appear, as Guardsman tries to use original parts whenever possible unless the integrity would be challenged in doing so. Masking damage after repair is made is also a Guardsman specialty and you can be assured of the finished "professionally masked" repair.
