Services
Floor Sanding
Our floor sanding service restores wooden floors to near-new condition using multi-stage grit sanding from 24-grit to 320-grit. We handle both boards and parquet flooring, finishing with three coats of durable varnish for long-lasting protection. Specialising in historic properties, we ensure seamless results that preserve original character while meeting modern standards.
Door Stripping
Using hot-tank chemical stripping, we remove paint and varnish from wooden doors without damaging underlying materials. This process works best on oil-painted surfaces, preparing doors for refinishing. Our method preserves original wood grain and structural integrity, suitable for both internal and external doors.
Fireplace Restoration
Specialising in cast iron and slate fireplace restoration, we remove multiple paint layers to reveal original details. Our process includes repair, blackening, and polishing to restore period features. We address cracks, missing parts, and fire-damaged areas while maintaining safety standards and historical accuracy.
Furniture Stripping
We restore wooden furniture using chemical stripping tanks and neutralisation processes to remove old finishes. Services include sanding, waxing, and applying custom finishes for tables, chairs, and architectural woodwork. Our method preserves original materials while preparing surfaces for modern protection.
Parquet Floor Repair
Our parquet floor repair service combines sanding with precision restoration techniques for block and strip parquet installations. We address uneven surfaces, missing tiles, and wear patterns using traditional methods that maintain historical authenticity while ensuring structural stability for modern use.
