Door Restoration & Refinishing London
Your front door is your first impression
A faded, weathered front door. Peeling finish. Sun-damaged wood that's lost its colour and lustre. It's the first thing visitors see — and it's quietly undermining the impression you want to make.
Or interior doors throughout your home that no longer match your newly renovated interiors. Outdated colour. Wrong finish. Every time you walk past them, they feel out of place.
We restore entrance doors and interior doors on-site — from residential front doors to grand embassy entrances, apartment building lobbies to boardroom doors.
Stripped back, repaired if needed, and refinished to a colour and sheen that complements your property. The door stays on its hinges throughout.

Grand Entrance Doors London Embassy
The Brief
A London embassy required their grand entrance doors to be restored to their original magnificence. The doors had been painted over multiple times and needed stripping back to the original timber, repairing, and refinishing to museum-quality standards.
The Work
Multiple layers of old polish carefully stripped by hand to preserve the original timber and intricate mouldings. Damaged sections repaired and filled. The doors were then colour-matched to the embassy's historic specification and finished with traditional methods appropriate for a heritage building of this significance.
The Result
Entrance doors that command attention and respect. The quality of the timber and craftsmanship is now visible, and the finish is protected for decades to come.
