Chapter House - St Paul's Cathedral
This listed building required the two Chapter Rooms discoloured wall panelling, to be carefully removed back to bare oak and re-finished to give a natural lustre. We then carefully fitted the new oak flooring, coloured by using a traditional stain using charcoled walnut shells! All to the clients approval. Main contractor – Bakers of Danbury Ltd
