    Figure out how people search for such a business and use it to order the words in the domain. One suggestion would be furniturerestorationd2 as it is descriptive and localised (if the D2 refers to the Dublin 2 area). It is also easy for people to remember.

    If your business name is descriptive of the business the full name would probably do better in peoples memory and online searches.
    with the proviso that it is not too long i.e. more characters than you can fit in Google ad.

    If the business is Joe Blogs and sons then go for shorter or else blogsfurniturerestoration except that this example is a bit long.

    Are most of your example customers from the D2 area or is that where your example business is based?

    Unless you're targeting D2 specifically I'd consider widening the geo-targetting of your domain. Obviously that doesn't apply if you're using a coffee/sandwich shop as an example.
