We were privileged to work on the entrance refurbishment of the historic Godmersham Park House, collaborating closely with an interior designer to bring the project to fruition. Our task was to enhance and restore the entrance while preserving the property’s historical integrity and charm.
Godmersham Park House (The famous house depicted on the UK £10 note)
Historical Preservation: The project required meticulous attention to detail to preserve the historical significance of Godmersham Park House.
Coordination: Working in collaboration with an interior designer meant ensuring seamless communication and alignment on the design vision.
Strip Out: We commenced the project by carefully stripping out the old materials and fixtures from the entrance area. This initial phase was conducted with great care to avoid any damage to the underlying historical structures.
Replastering: Once the area was prepared, we undertook the task of replastering the walls. Using traditional techniques and materials that matched the historical context, we ensured the walls were smooth and ready for the next steps.
Relining: We then relined the walls, providing a fresh and even surface that would serve as the perfect canvas for the designer’s vision. This step was crucial for achieving a flawless finish in the final stages of the project.
Wooden Door Restoration: One of the highlights of this project was the restoration of the internal wooden doors. Lovingly restored by our skilled craftsmen, the doors were brought back to their former glory, preserving their historical character while ensuring they were functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Painting: The final step in the refurbishment process was painting. We applied high-quality, historically appropriate paint to the walls and doors, carefully selecting colours that complemented the overall design scheme and respected the house’s historical context.
The entrance refurbishment at Godmersham Park House was a testament to our dedication to preserving historical properties while enhancing their beauty and functionality. The collaboration with the interior designer resulted in an entrance that seamlessly blends historical elegance with modern sophistication.
The client was extremely pleased with the outcome, appreciating the attention to detail and the respect shown to the house’s historical significance.
This project showcases our capability to handle sensitive and prestigious refurbishments, ensuring the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
