About us
- Our business started in 1978 and still remains under the same ownership making us the longest established paint stripping company in the North East by many years.
- Through 35 years of paint stripping and french polishing experience our system is renowned for it’s ability to remove paint without damaging the delicate wood underneath.
- We pride ourselves on our long standing reputation for quality, attention to detail and customer care.
- Be aware of low standard imitators, your furniture deserves to be treated well. Warping, joint loosening and door panel damage are common issues reported in low quality stripping businesses.
