"I commissioned Revived and Restored to update my chest of drawers given to me by a family member which unfortunately didn't suit my décor. They were able to relay my vision and I am now thrilled with it, as it now takes pride of place in my bedroom." 8th Feburary 2017 Leonie Bell - Lichfield
"So pleased with the piece of furniture (wardrobe), I selected from this company. Quality and attention to detail is great. Melanie was very professional and approachable, a pleasure to do business with. Seriously tempted to ask them about restoring an old desk we have hidden away! " 20th April 2017 Belinda Richardson - Southampton
"Just saw some beautiful pieces of furniture at Sweet Little Sudbury - great quality will be telling my friends"- 26th April 2017 Bridget Granger - Anslow
"Excellent customer service. Emailed them to ask for delivery cost and because I was only 25 miles away, they emailed me back to say they could deliver the bedside drawers for free. They kept in contact with me throughout, really friendly. They delivered my beautiful bedside drawers and even put it in the bedroom for me. Really pleased with the quality of the product too, looks just like on the website. Very happy." 3rd May 2017 Rachel Wakefield - Burton upon Trent

"This is the first time I have bought anything from Revived and Restored, and I am over the moon with my beautiful wardrobe!!! It has taken pride of place in my bedroom! The after sales care has been brilliant, I got to choose my delivery date and it arrived promptly. Melanie has been extremely courteous, helpful and accommodating. I will definitely recommend you to my friends!! Thank you so much!!! " 22nd August 2017 Tamlyn Elrin - Sevenoaks
"We commissioned Melanie and the team to restore and paint our bedroom furniture including replacing the wooden knobs with iron knobs. From the outset, Melanie could not have been more helpful - suggesting options to keep the project within our budget, helping us select the paint colour to complement our planned bedroom decor, disassembling the wardrobe to get down the stairs, keeping us up to date with the progress of the refurbishment with photos, storing the furniture whilst we completed the work on our bedroom and then bringing along her carpenter to reassemble the wardrobe and get all the other furniture in place. We are delighted with the end result, our furniture is unrecognisable from before and everyone who has seen it has commented on how good it looks. Thank you to everyone on the team " 12th September 2017 Nikki Davies - Aldridge
"Absolutely Brilliant *****
Melanie & the team are first class. A truly professional service from start to finish, kept up to date with everything at all times and nothing is too much trouble. They say what they are going to do and they do it. I had 2 pieces of furniture restored and the results are fantastic the project was completed to time scale and delivered back to me without a hitch. You won't get better quality work, price or commitment anywhere else. Customer service at it's best. I would truly recommend Revived & Restored to you. Use them!! You won't be disappointed." 18th October 2017 Lousie Raybould - Tutbury
"I found Revived and Restored through Vinterior after falling in love and subsequently buying a beautiful oak dresser which has been so lovingly restored. I am so pleased that I found them, though I suspect it's a rather dangerous discovery as I'm in the middle of a house restoration! The attention to detail is second to none and Melanie honestly could not have been more helpful and accommodating through the whole process. I will definitely be recommending Revived and Restored to my friends."
19th October 2017 Jess Alford - London

I had some solid wood furniture that was looking a bit dated but I couldn't bear to part with it. So I searched on the internet for furniture restorers and was lucky enough to find Melanie and Mike. I am so glad that I did as I now have two pieces that look fantastic! Lovely people to deal with and a very professional job! Jeanette Hodgkinson - Alwrewas
"Just wanted to say I’m over the moon with the table and chairs, they look amazing.
So much better than the Laura Ashley ones!! " 27th March 2018 Liz Lowe - Pattingham, Wolverhampton
"Thank you so much for the wonderful job you have done on our rocking chair and ottoman! We are thrilled and can’t believe how great they look. I’ve shown the photos to a few people at work and they are very impressed. Everyone thinks the ottoman could go for a lot of money on a retro furniture site - but I’m definitely keeping it! To think I hated it for years and felt my Mum should get rid of it! Now it looks brilliant and we have a keepsake from her. " 14th April 2018 Julie Anderton - Rolleston, Burton on Trent
"I have worked with Melanie and she is a professional “superstar!” She understood my requirements and superseded the end result with complete transformation of a pine dresser, chest of drawers, chairs, table and mirrors, Highly recommended and delightful to work with."

It was restored in a nice way, not only that speak to Melanie who helped me choose the colours. It was nice to work with a professional. 13th Sept 2018 Geoff Miller - Etwell
Brilliant job of revitalising my old oak bureau/bookcase by Melanie & co. I wanted something that stood out from the rest and Melanie most certainly achieved it. My bureau is now in pride of place in my lounge and in the New Year my dining table will be getting a similar make-over. Many thanks for all your hard work - it is much appreciated. 8th November 2018, Pauline Bradshaw - Dudley
We’re so happy with the furniture. You’ve done a brilliant job. The colour and finish are fantastic. We would definitely recommend you to others. 28th December 2018, Kate Dixon - Burntwood

Reliable, professional and a pleasure to do business with. I absolutely love my restored cupboard and can’t thank you enough. Thank you Melanie for helping me pick the colours as they are perfect 10th Febuary 2019, Annie Briggs - Newborough
Melanie did a great job on our dining table and chairs, giving them a painted finish and a wash effect on the table top. It has updated the furniture and her advice was spot on. Lots of colour choices and the chair pads got re- covered too. We are very pleased with the work. 6th March 2019, Colin Horsburgh - Sandiacre
Revived and Restore have turned a number of pieces of my furniture, that was looking old, and dated and turned them into into new furniture with a new lease of life.
I couldn't be happier with the end result which is now light and airy, and absolutely stunning, everyone who come to the house passes compliments.
Both Melanie and Mike are also just the loveliest people to deal with, I can not recommend them high enough. 1st May 2019, Gail Kent - Nottingham
I bought a large baroque mirror from here. My daughter and her friends will enjoy getting ready for the wedding using your lovely mirror. 22nd May 2019, Candy Grainger - St. Georges, France
I could be happier with my wall unit and my book shelf what a transformation! I was also impressed by the way you over came the challenges you in-counted removing such a large piece of furniture and not to mention my drive!.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you and your company to my friends and family.
Thank you very much! 5th June 2019, Wendy Grice - Breaston, Derbyshire
My slightly shabby and dated dark oak TV unit has been given a new lease of life by Revived and Restored and now fits in perfectly with my newly decorated and furnished room. The service was both extremely professional and friendly; Melanie gave superb advice and the team managed to return a beautiful piece of furniture that gives me pleasure each time I look at it!
9th June 2019, Lorraine Bradshaw - Newcastle-u-Lyme
The old cupboard which was my mother has been given a fantastic make over thanks to Melanie and team. The service couldn’t have been better and with Melanie’s advice and experience you can’t go wrong. We have no problem in recommending this company and can’t wait to use them again. 6th August 2019, Rose and Dennis Freeman - Hilton Derbyshire
Melanie made me 3 vanity units and I couldn't be more delighted. She was a gem throughout the process and was enormously patient with my constantly changing spec and timelines. The finished products look fantastic and were a good competitive price - no need to buy boring vanities anymore! paragraph. Click here to add your own text and edit me.

Hello Melanie, sorry that I haven't thanked yet. Wanted to do this at the weekend. All very well. A beautiful clothes rack. Have a lot of fun with it. Have decorated old suitcases on the shoe rack and looks great. Thank you again for the nice communication. Greetings, Edith 23rd November 2019, Edith Sturmair - Austria
Hello Melanie and the team, just wanted to let you know the restoration you did was first class and your service and knowledge was excellellent. Thank you. Diane 18th March 2020, Diane Blake - Ashbourne
Melanie’s work is amazing. She listens to what the client wants and,with her attention to detail, creates a bespoke piece using her artistic flair and talent.
The company is very professional from scheduling in the work to the furniture collection and return. Nothing is too much trouble. But beware, Melanie is so in demand you will need to book your work in, however it is most certainly worth it. Thank you Melanie and Mike, Lisa Egan - Repton
Melanie and Mike restored an old table for me which I'd picked up from Facebook marketplace. You could tell that it had been well used over the years and the legs and table top needed some TLC. Mike and Melanie used their magic and the table now looks fabulous! We use it on a daily basis and the colours are a perfect match in my dining area. I love it! Thank you both! 29th July 2021 Lesley Batkin - Rolleston - on - Dove
Beautifully restored with wonderful customer service. Melanie and Mike have lovingly revived 3 pieces of furniture for me. I love all of them ❤️ 20th October 2021 - Donna Wedgbury - Shugborough
I bought the owl wise primer, paint and wax. The finish was amazing and the colour ‘Kashmir’ perfect. Melanie, I’ll send the picture of the finished result to inspire any one thinking about taking on a similar project, 10th October 2021, Nicola Castree - Tatenhill
Just bought a restored desk from Revived and Restored. The team have done a wonderful job restoring this desk and it look like it was made for my office. Delivery to our 2nd floor loft was handled really well. Highly recommended!, 25th November, Aziz Tarafder - Lewes
Just wanted to share with everyone, the pleasure I have had in the numerous commissions with Revived and Restored. Over the years, I have purchased bedroom furniture,, various pieces for my office, the legendary bar that they converted from my Mothers Antique French dresser , but more recently the Kitchen Commission they completed. A complete transformation from dowdy handmade French Oak 1980s, to bespoke kitchen to up to the minute with a matter of days with minimum disruption the to the busiest room in the house. Their "liming" techniques transformed the entire kitchen, saving me thousands on a new kitchen. Well done to the whole R & R team, a pleasure to work with value and excellent value for money Thank You 25th November 2021, Steve Smith - Tatenhill
I couldn’t be happier with our bathroom vanity unit, after searching for such a long time and not being able to find the right style or size to fit our bathroom I came across Revived and Restored on Pinterest. After contacting Melanie and explaining what we were after, she came up with suggestions and found a perfect unit to transform, and what a transformation it is.
I couldn’t recommend Revived and Restored more, right from the start of the process to having the unit delivered Melanie and Mike have been wonderful, thank you both so much. 30th January 2022, Gemma Lewis - Alrewas
I’m so pleased with the bar restoration done by Mel & the team. They were so helpful with ideas and recommendations. Mel could see what was in my head for the end result. I’ll definitely be using them for future projects. Thanks again x - March 2022, Charlotte Deakin - Burton upon Trent
Father and daughter, Mike and Melanie, at Revived and Restored have restored the old sideboard, which had been in our garage for more than 20 years, back into use. We are thrilled with the outcome thanks to the loving care and expertise they have devoted to this project. Nothing was too much trouble and all at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. April 2022 - Terrance Moore - Derby
So happy with my ‘new’ furniture. Mel and Mike have brought my pieces back to life so that they fit perfectly into my new home and I will be able to enjoy them for many years to come. Things that my husband wanted to take to the tip now look fantastic. Just proves that anything can be restored with a little bit of love, care and skill! Thank you so much Revived and Restored!!!. April 2022, Bridget Williamson - Repton
I have a dining table and chairs which I love but were dark pine and just didn’t suit my dining area. I decided to sell them but just couldn’t find replacements that I liked.
I am so thankful that they didn’t sell as I then thought about having them painted as I really didn’t want to let them go!
Revived and Restored to the rescue! Melanie and Mike have completely changed the look of the furniture and to say I’m thrilled is an understatement!
They now fit beautifully into my dining area and I can’t stop looking at them!
Melanie and Mike provided a first-class service and Melanie was so helpful in offering advice to me, and keeping me updated every step of the way. Thanks to both of you! April 2022, Sue Ferdinando - Shardlow
Great small business! Melanie and Mike are really responsive and offer a great service. Highly recommend them to anyone wanting to give a new lease of life to old furniture.
Great value for money when you consider the cost of replacing antique furniture with similarly well-made new furniture.Septmeber 2022, Jess Egan - London
Just collected my previously neglected carved camphor chest that has been hidden in the garage as covered in paint drips for at least the last 60 years. Melanie has made a fantastic job of restoring the chest to how it would have looked when originally bought in Hong Kong all those years ago. It is now prominently positioned in the home for all to see. Thank you.October 2022, Karen Gibbons - Buron upon Trent
Mike and Mel have made a beautiful job of some dark wood nest of tables that I have had for 20 years. I didn’t want to sell them but they didn’t fit with the decor of my recently decorated living room. I absolutely love their new look, fresh and modern. Thank you so very much, highly recommend.October 2022, Debbie Hayes - Buron upon Trent
We commissioned two bathroom vanities and they are just beautiful. Melanie helped me decide on the pieces of furniture to be upcycled, checked that they would be suitable (though she can also source these for you) and then did a fantastic job of turning a couple of pretty ugly units into beautiful pieces of furniture that add so much character to the house. Would totally recommend. October 2022, Becca F - London
I am really pleased with my pair of chest of drawers I've had painted. Really great communication and lovely people.
Thank you. November 2022, Sally Bentley - Tutbury
I’ve had three separate pieces of furniture done by Revived and Restored and I absolutely love all of them. They were all from my grandad’s house so it’s nice to have pieces that mean a lot given a new lease of life. Revived and restored are great at advising on things such as colours and handles and I am beyond happy with the quality and finish. Thank you x. November 2022, Sarah Gower - Abbotts Bromley
A big “Thank you “!That is some sideboard! Mike and Melanie as always excelled themselves in both work and service , furniture totally transformed itself and looked younger and uplifted with new knobs and handles. We went back for more as they were so good November 2022, Anna Coley - Solihull
I had a corner cabinet which belonged to my parents which I loved but it was in a dark wood and looked quite dated. Melanie upcycled it in the paint to match my dinning room furniture and it looks fantastic!
It really suits my room now and was so glad I could reuse it and not have to sell or scrap it. Melanie also painted 2 chairs I had which were also in dark wood and again look fabulous. She advised me on Colours and also sourced fabric for me for the upholstery of the chairs
My furniture was collected and delivered back to me and Melanie was always easy to contact and communicate with answering any queries I had.
If you are wondering about what to do with a much loved piece of furniture but would like a change don’t scrap it upcycle it you will be amazed at what Melanie can do!
I wouldn’t hesitate to use her and ‘revived and restored ‘ again April 2023, Suzy Storr - Hollington Ashbourne
Really pleased with my newly painted dressing table. Friendly, helpful and efficient service. May 2023, Lisa Cooper - London
We ordered two units from Revived & Restored. One bespoke double unit to replace an existing unit where we need fairly precise measurements and one single unit from stock. Melanie quickly found a unit that met our requirements and was to our taste. We communicated regularly via what’s app group which was really handy. Having chosen our units we then chose basin, taps etc from various different options Melanie presented. All went very smoothly and we now have both our units which are waiting to be installed. May 2023, Marc Kitchen - London
Melanie and Mike have recently restored all of our dining room furniture, a bookcase and a nest of tables which were all dark oak but have now been totally revived! All of the solid oak tops were sanded down and finished back to their natural colour and the grain of the wood can now be seen in all its glory! The cabinets were all hand painted inside and out, with updated knobs and the chairs painted and upholstered beautifully. We cannot recommend Revived and Restored highly enough and our thanks go out to them for giving our battered and bruised furniture a new lease of life. June 2023, Susan Brown - Hilton Derby
Thank you to Mel and Mike. Professional from collection to delivery following a tremendous transformation. We love our new sideboard and it now has pride of place. July 2023, Gill Thompson - Ashborne

Thanks so much Melanie and Mike.... we were looking for a finish for our table which would blend in with our kitchen, just take a look at the before (yellow) and now the after (lime) - we got exactly what we asked for! Absolute pleasure working with Revived & Restore and would highly recommend them. October 2023, Martin Walker - Hilton Derby
