Ich habe die etwas in die Jahre gekommene alte Kommode von meiner Oma restaurieren lassen. Jetzt erleuchtet sie wieder im neuen Glanz. Super Ergebnis. Sehr professionelle und freundliche Beratung. Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Den Restaurator kann ich nur weiterempfehlen.

Mein alter Jugendstil Schreibtisch ist leider kaputt gegangen und musste repariert werden. In dem Zusammenhang wurden gleich noch ein paar Macken wieder ausgebessert. Ich bin super zufrieden mit ZRW Berlin. Die Kommunikation verlief einwandfrei und ohne langes Warten, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. Sehr freundlicher Umgang und äußerst kompetente Arbeiten. Ich kann die Firma guten Gewissens empfehlen!

Findings examination and material determination
Preventing and repairing damage to historical objects is part of the daily work of restorers and conservators. Damage analysis forms the basis for identifying damage causes on the one hand and deriving measures for preventive conservation on the other.
During damage analysis, these factors have emerged as the cause for most types of damage to historical objects:
- Poor climatic conditions
- Improper handling
- Overuse
- Lack of care
- Pest infestation
- Microbial infestation
The steps of a restoration damage analysis
At the beginning of damage analysis, the first question is the specific causes. If antique furniture, picture frames, sculptures, funerary hatchments, or paintings show inexplicable damage, experts for restoration and conservation are in demand to find out what may be the underlying cause.
In the case of vandalism, burglary, average, or other catastrophes, it is usually not necessary to investigate. Nevertheless, in such cases, a scientifically based expert opinion is often helpful so that you, as the injured party, can assert your claims against the insurance company or even the perpetrators.
The cause and the extent of the damage, as well as the overall condition, must be documented in a damage report. This may require further testing, for example, microscopic or technological analyses such as UV examinations.
As certified restorers at the Zentrale Restaurierungswerkstatt Berlin (Central Restoration Workshop Berlin), we are perfectly equipped to perform the necessary tests: Our state-of-the-art workshop offers the best working conditions for a comprehensive examination of findings. Our range of services includes:

Material determination and damage analysis
To find out more about what might have caused the damage, we also offer a material analysis. With the help of art techniques, we can determine the authenticity of materials or classify and assign changes caused by age or specific damage.
For example, by determining the type of wood, we as certified restorers can determine how old a wooden object is. If wooden furniture such as frames, tables, or cabinets are infested with pests, such as woodworms or microorganisms, professional countermeasures can be taken.
Based on the determination of the material and the documented damage, we develop a strategy including a catalog of measures for restoration and conservation.
Our Zentrale Restaurierungswerkstatt Berlin is perfectly equipped for professional examinations of historical furniture, wooden objects, and used wood. You can rely on the expertise and craftsmanship of our certified wood and furniture restorers to find out what is causing the damage and to effectively prevent it from happening again in the future!
