Carousel Specialists
Carousel Restorations
WRF Designs has been restoring antique carousels and relate pieces of art for over 30 years. Our master carvers and woodworkers are able to restore and repair the wear and damage that time, the elements, and many joyful riders may have taken on these beautiful wooden figures. Our expert painters use the same methods and materials as the period artists who originally brought these treasures to life to restore them to their classic splendor.
Over the last thirty plus years we have performed restoration on numerous full Carousel rides and countless individual pieces.
Scheduled Maintenance
The best way to preserve your carousel is with scheduled on-site yearly maintenance to combat the continuous wear of time and riders. We provide packages to help you in your efforts. Have our restoration experts visit your ride and do spot repairs, touch-ups and an overall visual refresh to keep it looking its best year after year.
Appraisals
With our knowledge of carousel industry, past and present, we offer appraisals of individual pieces or appraisal booklets for entire rides.
Consultations
We offer consultations for customers, giving our professional opinions on potential work they are looking to have done.
