VICTORIAN STAIR RESTORATION
A labor of love restoration to be sure for this wrap-around staircase in a New England 150 year old Victorian. All original stair components including damaged balusters were painstakingly stripped and refinished using traditional methods – meaning no chemicals or solvents were used in the stripping process.
​
Broken and damaged balusters, risers and treads were removed and repaired before reassembly.
​
​
​
All materials are from original construction consisting of oak stair treads and fir balusters and railings.
​
​
Natural finishes were subltley accented with stain for color accuracy with a final water-based urethane for durability. Painted finishes for balusters, newel posts and stair risers were primed with multiple coats of water-based primer and final finish is a high-gloss enamel.
