Tax advice for Overseas Landlords Where a landlord may be considered non-resident for tax purposes he has to pay United Kingdom Income Tax on any rents received from property in the UK under the Finance Act 1995. Unless an "Exemption Certificate" is received from the Inland Revenue specifically permitting midcornwall to pay rental monies to the landlord without the deduction of tax, midcornwall is obliged by Law to deduct tax at the appropriate rate as directed by HM Treasury on all monies received and account to the Inland Revenue for these monies on a quarterly basis. Whilst landlords are responsible for obtaining their own "Exemption Certificate", we can advise you of how to go about it and supply you with the relevant forms to fill in. It's important to note that the certificates are non-transferable between agents. It is also important to note that where a

This Victorian walnut writing slope has been completely restored including replacement leatherIn my opinion no! The cost of purchasing such items has come down drastically over the last 3 years and it is now a buyers market. Ten years ago the cost of a typical late eighteenth century furniture bow fronted chest of drawers in restored condition was around £750. That same piece would cost around the same price, if not a little less. Similarly a good Georgian mahogany bureau in need of some restoration would cost about £1200 ten years ago in auction. That same antique bureau could probably be purchased for around £400-500 today Repairs and polishing to an eighteenth century mahogany bureau Rightmove Lostwithiel A small friendly professional removal company with 20 years experience, providing quality removals locally ,nationwide and to France.

There were two pieces of beading missing, some loose casters and a few breaks and loose joints. One of the drawer knobs was also damaged and had to be re-turned. The Canterbury then had to be cleaned back, grain filled and French polished. This pitch pine pew had spent some time outdoors where it had dried out and bleached in the sun. After restoration of the timber, and repairing all the joints, the painted surface had to be stripped prior to wax polishing. I have been involved in repairs and polishing of antique furniture in Cornwall for the past 35 years and have restored items from the early 17th century through to the 21st century.
The restoration involves hard, physical work.

I will fully discuss all aspects of repair and restoration with you and special care will be taken with collection and delivery of the item.

Whenever Cornwall furniture restoration are asked to work onsite we endeavor to keep the area as clean and tidy as possible and to cause as little disruption as is necessary. This upright modern Broadwood piano had suffered severe damage along the front edge caused by the piano being moved through a doorway. The scratches and dents had to be sanded out and then each area was carefully stained and tinted in to match the surrounding area which was a little difficult because the piano was next to a very large window. This very pretty country chair was brought into me to have some major repairs done on the arm and back. It has had some drastic repairs carried out some time ago. The furniture restoration was somewhat clumsily done, although the break was severe and drastic, measures had to be taken to strengthen the joint.

It had the top covered with a sheet of plain glass which had allowed liquids to creep under the edges and stain the table top. Also the top had started to shrink and crack and black mould was residing in the crevices. The top had to be removed and dismantled so that the boards could be planed, glued and cramped.
