Stripped | Repaired | Re-Polished
Here's some photos of work we've just started at the Royal Collage of GPs. The building is undergoing a big refurbishment but as it's a grade II listed building, all the original woodwork has to remain. We've been tasked with restoring all the old doors and door frames. There's about 70 of these and as you can see in the pictures some are in a really bad state.
The door in the 'before' picture has got wet at some point and as it's Oak has turned black (Oak doesn't like water). It's also begun to rot in places.
We fully striped this door of it's finish and bleached out all the black areas. After repairing the rotten areas we stained an re-polished it. As you can see in the 'After' photos it looks as good as new.
The photo on the right shows a sample we did on one of the doors (still Oak but a different type of door) to show the difference after restoration. The difference is quite dramatic so helped secure us the contract for this work.
