Wood Stripping & Refinishing Oak Park

Prepping of all surrounding hardware and surfaces is key to proper stripping to ensure these areas are protected. Fortune Restoration’s experience team will use professional grade products to remove finishes and leave a clean slate for the new coat. Once all finishes are cleaned off, repairs can be done to cracks or indentations to provide an even surface to work on. The surface must be sanded to ensure an even surface for the new finish to cover. Whether you wanted to recoat the surface with paint and apply a stain and sealer, Fortune Restoration can provide the finish you desire. Proper application of the new finish creates a uniform, clean look; whether it’s an even, clean painted surface or allowing the grain of the wood shine through.
