Refinishing

We have found that most timber frame and log home problems can be repaired: all it takes is expertise; proven, field-tested methods; and careful attention to detail.

Depending on the condition of the timber frame and log home, the required refinishing process may require the complete removal of weathering damage, old sealants, old stain and paint. We are experts at removing anything on the wood surface while preserving the wood’s beauty and integrity. Once residual materials are removed, we employ proper wood preparation measures to ensure the finishing application works properly. The goal is to beautify and increase the life span of your timber frame and log home, all the while reducing future maintenance costs.
