Chair Caning, Rush Rope, Split Ash, and now Wicker Repair
CHAIR CANE CANING: Any type of woven seating that includes pressed cane, hand cane, rush rope, split ash, binding reed, wicker and rattan repair.
- Chair Caning involves complete removal of the seating material and then replacing,
- We always assure that the wood structure can properly handle the new cane.
- All wood repair and refinishing of the wood or the new seating to match is available
- See examples of caning repairs
NATION WIDE SERVICES: The typical chair needing caning can be shipped via UPS. See page on "Caning Replacement Pak & Ship" services anb guidelines.
BASIC GUIDELINE PRICING: The "typical" dining chair seat can likely be pre-priced using our Caning Pricing page. Your piece may be larger, irregular shaped, or on a back and not flat; arll of which are slightly more. Hand woven cane costs more than press sheet cane. Chair and rocker backs might be small or large, flat or curved, square or irregular shaped. Finishing of any new seating is additional. See our Pricing page for more details.
WICKER REPAIR: While "wicker" is another version of "caning", we treat them separately.
- Learn about the
Difference Between Wicker and Rattan.
See Select Samples of what we can do. There is a wide variety of caning types and therefore many different types of repairs.
"We realized that there is no known professional in the four state region that will even touch wicker items. So, "fill the void" as they say. We look forward to help you." says Tim Wilson, Owner.
