Our stained glass door was remade by Gary who did a wonderful job. He was a real craftsman and the service was very professional. Cannot recommend this business highly enough.

We had 3 doors stripped, collected and delivered for free. Really glad I went with these guys and not some of the other door strippers I spoke to on the phone. This company has passion behind it and i'd recommend them on that alone - you can have peace of mind that they will do a good job and they gave me some great advice.

Can't rate them highly enough. Did excellent work on repairs to our stained glass panels in a front door, and very helpful giving advice in another project.
