With over 35 years experience in French polishing, I first completed my apprenticeship with Andrew Thomson & Company Furniture Makers of Glasgow as a young man. I obtained my City & Guilds, and also the White National Certificate in French Polishing.
Further to completion of my apprenticeship, I was promoted to Foreman of French polishing within the Company, going on to be awarded the Gavin Benbo Scholarship for Restoration, a prize awarded to only one French polisher in the UK each year.I started Furniture Care/ Period Homes, my own family business in 1989, employing my son as the first apprentice.

A belated but sincere 'thank you' for the wonderful job you carried out on my drawing room & dining room floors earlier this summer. I am absolutely delighted with the quality workmanship & expert advice I received. The floors look stunning, now properly restored and treated & will be enjoyed & last for many many years to come.
