| Many
fine ironwork objects can be repaired by a proficient blacksmith,
but a conservation input is often required in order to satisfy the
requirements of grant funding bodies and English Heritage. We can assist you in this process by carrying out a condition survey of the ironwork followed by a budget estimate for the work required, which enables you to apply for grant funding. We can then supply detailed specifications and other information necessary for tender documents, and we can assist in identifying suitable blacksmiths. This can be followed up, if desired, by our monitoring the progress of the successful contractor and generally giving ongoing advice to both client and contractor. We can also provide you with advice on historic surface coatings, paint analysis and a detailed specification for suitable paint systems for any painted metal object, followed by information on the correct maintenance regime. |

We
were recently consulted on the repair and redecoration of the
decorative gates,
railings and lamp standards at Burlington House, Piccadilly, London.
We produced a full Specification of Works which was used as part of the tender document for the contract, detailing the methods and materials to be used, and covering all the Health & Safety aspects of the work with which the contractor was required to comply. |
