Paint Stripping

Over time, layers of paint, varnish and other coatings can obscure the original appearance and character of a surface. Whether applied through repeated redecoration, refurbishment works or years of maintenance, these finishes can conceal important architectural details and diminish the overall appearance of a property.

At SJM French Polishers & Specialist Decorations, we provide specialist paint stripping and surface restoration services for heritage, residential and commercial properties throughout the UK. Using a combination of traditional craftsmanship, modern restoration techniques and environmentally conscious water-based stripping systems, we carefully remove unwanted coatings from a wide range of surfaces while protecting the original substrate beneath.

Our experienced craftsmen work on timber, metal, stone, plaster, decorative mouldings, architectural features, furniture and specialist surfaces, tailoring the stripping process to suit each material and project. By utilising modern water-based products wherever possible, we are able to achieve exceptional results while minimising the impact on delicate surfaces, occupied environments and the surrounding area.

Whether restoring original features within a listed building, removing layers of paint from decorative plasterwork, stripping coatings from architectural metalwork or preparing surfaces for refinishing, we deliver exceptional results with meticulous attention to detail.

We regularly undertake paint stripping projects within heritage buildings, luxury residences, commercial properties, hotels, public buildings and prestigious interiors, ensuring every surface is carefully restored and prepared for its next stage of decoration, conservation or refinishing.
