Panelling
We are experts at conserving and restoring wood panelling – whose individual characteristics can provide a precious glimpse into your home’s history. We also offer a bespoke design and installation service to reinstate panelling where it may previously have been removed or damaged in whole or in part.
Having worked with priceless original panelling in some of the most impressive heritage buildings in England, you can trust our skilled craftsmen to balance conservation with the need to live in and enjoy the space.
JOINERY
Our highly skilled artisan craftsmen use traditional techniques to carefully restore original joinery including windows, doors, staircases and other unique architectural features. With a commitment to conserve wherever possible, we have been able to save many architectural features that would otherwise have been lost or completely replaced.
With our help and our guarantee of high quality repairs,we can ensure that original joinery is as strong as when it was first completed – and even prolong its life further through the expert use
of modern technologies.
Flooring
Whether the sympathetic restoration of wooden flooring, or the supply and installation of reclaimed and new flooring, our highly skilled artisan craftsmen carefully carry out every aspect of their work by hand. Projects vary in size from a Victorian semi-detached family home to one of our country’s most recognisable royal residences, Kensington Palace.
With a clear focus on attention to detail, traditional techniques and beautiful finishes we have built a reputation for providing some of the most unique and glorious wood flooring restoration and installations anywhere in the world.
The 17th century was a period of great turbulence in British history and this was reflected in art and design. The period began with the ending of the Tudor dynasty and the rise of the Stuarts.
