Staircases
A Victorian staircase balustrade was carefully renewed to bring its original craftsmanship back into view. Gentle, controlled surface preparation lifted layers of dark finish and accumulated grime from the handrail, barley-twist spindles and turned details, leaving the pine joinery clean, even and ready for its next decorative finish without flattening its character.

Move the divider across the original documented images to compare the condition before preparation with the completed restoration.
What was needed
Restore the timber balustrade while protecting its intricate profiles. Work across the handrail, decorative spindles and associated turned components, using a measured low-impact cleaning approach to remove aged stain and surface dirt, reveal the natural timber beneath and prepare the staircase for finishing.
