Marco Art of Restoration provides specialized restoration, refinishing, and custom woodworking for churches, cathedrals, synagogues, temples, and other houses of worship throughout Long Island and New York City.

From the preservation of existing furniture and architectural woodwork to the creation of new custom pieces, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques to produce work that respects the character, history, and purpose of each sacred space.

Restoration of Ecclesiastical Furniture & Woodwork:

We restore and refinish ecclesiastical furniture and architectural woodwork with careful attention to the original materials, construction, and character of each piece.

Our work includes pews, altars, pulpits, lecterns, sanctuary furniture, doors, paneling, cabinetry, decorative woodwork, and other furnishings that have been affected by age, wear, water damage, or previous repairs.

Whenever possible, original elements are preserved and repaired, combining traditional restoration techniques with durable professional finishing systems to ensure the work can continue to serve the space for years to come.

Custom Ecclesiastical Furniture:

In addition to restoration, we design and build custom furniture and architectural elements for churches, synagogues, and other houses of worship.

Each piece is created specifically for its setting, with careful consideration given to proportion, function, wood selection, finish, and the architectural character of the space. From traditional designs to newly conceived pieces, our work can incorporate custom carving, religious symbols, decorative details, and specialized finishes.

Our goal is to create furniture that feels as though it belongs within the space—not simply something that has been added to it.

This custom altar storage cabinet was designed and built specifically for the Cathedral of the Incarnation in Garden City, NY. The piece was carefully proportioned and detailed to complement the existing architectural woodwork of the Cathedral, creating functional storage while maintaining the character of the surrounding space.

This custom vestment closet was designed and built to provide organized storage while integrating naturally with the Cathedral’s existing interior. From fabrication and fitting in our workshop through final installation, the cabinetry was carefully constructed and finished with attention to proportion, architectural details, and the surrounding woodwork.
