Small space, lots of improvement!
It was time this staircase had some love, and love it received!
With a full redecorate as standard in Elephant's breathe and skimming stone.
We also removed the old pointless handrail, posts and spindles, adjusted sections of the floor to correct sizes, added Scotia where required, sanded the bejesus out of it all and then oiled to match the rest of the house.
We also gave the old and very tired Velux window a full and proper refurbishment!
I've definitely seen a few people painting these over the years and doing a very questionable job of it!
We remove the whole opener, separate all moving parts for cleaning and greasing, sand, clean, paint, then apply new seals and filters before reassembling.
Very happy with how this project has turned out, just waiting on a new carpet now.
Can't wait to see the finished results.
