About

I run Back-2-Wood, specialising in restoring old and historic woodwork and timber. We repair and preserve original materials wherever possible, particularly in heritage buildings, rather than simply replacing them.

We repair and preserve original materials wherever possible, particularly in heritage buildings, rather than simply replacing them. Back-2-Wood provides specialist timber restoration and heritage building conservation, including the repair and restoration of historic woodwork, removal of old lead-based paint and the sympathetic preservation of original timber. I carry out all the work myself, from quote to completion.
