Barnsbury N1 is one of the most sought-after neighbourhoods in Islington, defined by its garden squares (like Thornhill Square and Barnsbury Square) and intact Victorian streetscapes. The maintenance of these properties is a serious responsibility.
railings and Ironwork
Barnsbury is defined by its iron railings. Maintaining these is critical not just for aesthetics but for preservation. We use a multi-stage process for ironwork — removal of rust and loose paint, application of a rust-inhibiting primer, undercoat, and two top coats of high-gloss black. This ensures the railings are protected for years to come.
Front Doors and Fanlights
The entrance to a Barnsbury house is its calling card. We paint front doors to a mirror-like finish using traditional techniques — sanding between coats to build up a deep, rich gloss. We also carefully pick out the details in fanlights, ensuring the lead or glazing bars are neatly defined.
