Building Restoration Service — East Boston, Boston MA

Wood Restoration in East Boston, Boston MA

Clean, treat, repair and refinish rather than replace, where the wood is still sound.

On East Boston properties

Full envelope work is common in East Boston. Eastie is surrounded by water. Salt drives coating failure and fastener corrosion, and any exterior spec that ignores it will not last. Strip, repair, prime, and rebuild the finish properly.

Our process

Clean, treat, repair and refinish rather than replace, where the wood is still sound.

Clean, treat, consolidate what's salvageable and replace only what isn't. Old-growth siding and trim is denser than anything you can buy now, and it's worth keeping where it's still sound.

Where these jobs go wrong

Replacing original wood that only needed cleaning and consolidation. You lose the profile and the material quality and gain nothing.
