A traditional staircase was carefully brought back to life after a long period of hand stripping had left the timber uneven and tired. Using a controlled, light surface-restoration process, we removed the remaining finish without aggressively cutting into the joinery, revealing a cleaner, more consistent appearance while retaining the character of the staircase.

What was needed
How the surface was prepared.
Prepare and protect the staircase, assess the partially stripped timber, and use a gentle blast-cleaning approach to lift residual coating and ingrained surface dirt from the treads, risers, strings, handrail and detailed joinery. Finish with a thorough clean-down and an even, sound surface ready for the customer's chosen decorative or protective finish.
