Restoring teak dining sets, loungers, and pool-deck furniture for homes throughout the Flats, Trousdale, and the Beverly Hills hillsides.
Mature inland gardens shelter furniture from UV, which helps, but they introduce their own problems. Sap, pollen, berry drop and bird staining all sit on Beverly Hills teak for weeks between uses.
Tannin-rich leaf litter is the usual culprit behind the dark blotches people mistake for rot. It stains readily on bare wood and barely at all on a protected surface, which is a good argument for keeping the finish current under trees.
Shaded pieces also dry slowly, so the mildew that inland properties otherwise avoid tends to appear precisely where the planting is densest.
Beverly Hills is really two different climates stacked on top of each other. Down in the Flats, along the wide lots of Rexford, Roxbury, and Elm, teak patio furniture sits under mature ficus and jacaranda canopy that keeps direct sun in check for much of the day. Up in Trousdale Estates and the canyon roads above Sunset, that shade disappears and teak takes a much harder dose of unfiltered California sun.
Because Beverly Hills is inland of the immediate coast, salt exposure isn't the driver of wear that it is in Malibu or Santa Monica. Instead, we see teak furniture here suffering mostly from heat-cycling and dryness — pool decks and outdoor dining tables that bake all afternoon and then cool quickly once the sun drops behind the hills.
Many of the estates we work on have pool and cabana areas built around teak loungers and daybeds that see daily use, plus chlorine splash that dulls the finish faster than plain sun exposure alone. We treat these pieces differently than a shaded teak bench tucked against a garden wall.
The city's older Flats homes, some dating to the 1920s and 1930s, often still have original or long-owned teak furniture that's been refinished multiple times over the decades, while newer construction in the hillside neighborhoods tends to feature larger built-in teak elements integrated into outdoor kitchens and cabana structures.
Because much of our work here happens on private, gated properties, we coordinate closely with household staff and property managers to schedule visits with minimal disruption to the household.
We regularly work with household staff and property managers on gated Beverly Hills estates, from the Flats to Trousdale, to schedule discreet on-site restoration visits.
Without direct salt exposure, the biggest threat to teak in Beverly Hills is prolonged, dry heat — pool decks and hillside terraces in full sun can dry out and check faster than shaded pieces, so we recommend a slightly more frequent oiling schedule for anything without tree cover.
Chlorine splash near pool and spa areas is a recurring issue we see on loungers and daybeds set close to the water's edge; regular rinsing with fresh water after pool use helps slow the discoloration that chlorine causes over time.
For older Flats-neighborhood furniture that's been refinished multiple times, we assess how much original wood surface remains before sanding, since decades of prior restoration can mean less material to work with than a newer piece.

Hand-finished
Every grain inspected, sanded and sealed by a master craftsman.
Grey, blotchy and sticky are three different failures with three different fixes. We identify which one you have first.
Mildew and algae in shaded joints are living, not cosmetic. They are treated before abrasives touch the wood.
Staining is lifted with the correct chemistry rather than chlorine, which breaks down fibre and lightens unevenly.
Cross-grain scratches show through any oil finish. Every pass follows the grain, including the awkward edges.
A sample area confirms tone and absorption on your actual wood before the whole set is committed to a product.
Product, grit sequence and coat count are logged so the next maintenance visit matches instead of fighting it.
A pair of built-in teak daybeds near a hillside pool had chlorine discoloration and sun bleaching; we resanded and applied a finish more resistant to chemical splash.
A shaded teak dining table near Roxbury Park had developed a mildew film from lingering shade; we cleaned and refinished it to restore an even, natural tone.
Built-in teak paneling around an outdoor bar had heat-related warping at the seams; we corrected the joints and resealed the panels for continued daily use.
A decades-old teak bench that had been refinished several times before was carefully hand-sanded to preserve remaining wood thickness before a final protective coat.
The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice. Additional work is quoted and agreed before it happens.
Certificates issued to Beverly Hills HOAs, boards and management companies on request, before the crew arrives.
Dust containment, full masking of stone and glass, and a clean-down at the end of every working day.
We finish with UV-stable, museum-grade oils engineered to protect Beverly Hills teak through long full-sun exposure and dry inland heat without darkening the grain.

The decision is structural first and financial second. Appearance should not drive it at all.
