Where is the 'Secret Restoration' location?
The gist of the series is that the restoration experts are working in secret on objects as a surprise for the owner. For example, a wife could bring in her husband's prized heirloom to the Secret Restoration experts, and they'll restore it in the show's secret factory before the big reveal to the hypothetical husband in question.
So where is this top-secret factory located?
According to a report from The Cinemaholic, the highly classified Secret Restoration factory is located in Bridgeport, Connecticut, with other filming taking place in the cities of Stamford and Southington.
Secret Restoration cast member Dave Weinman's Instagram page (@partsandrestoration) provides fans of the series an interesting assortment of behind-the-scenes information regarding Secret Restoration's filming locations.
For example, Dave tagged the location of Bridgeport on a post of him working on a 150-year-old cannon carriage in the Secret Restoration factory.
Besides Dave, who are the other restoration experts in the Secret Restoration cast? There's Leah Bolden, PJ Burchett, David Dall, Alfred Dill, Sara Porter, and LaTasha "LA" Thym.
The History Channel series bills the cast members as the best restoration experts in the nation.
Can anyone apply to be on 'Secret Restoration'?
Great news, Secret Restoration fans! You can actually apply to be on an upcoming episode of the series through Secret Restoration's casting website, and you don't have to live in Connecticut to be considered.
