Has anyone had any experience with refurbishing Victorian doors? We have recently moved into a new house and the doors are not in very good condition - they have lots of paint splatters and years worth of dark stains that are uneven.

Some are in better condition than others - I don't really know whether it is best to try and restore them or just to buy new ones.

Do you know of any companies/carpenters that do this sort of think - i understand they could potentially be dipped to take off all the old layers and start fresh?

Any advice gratefully received.

  The boards are for services provided by the council and/or non-profit groups or state agencies. Private micro businesses are to be congratulated and supported but they are able to advertise their services elsewhere, now more than ever, as part of their business plan. (This also applies to those who insist on plastering lampposts and bus shelters with their advertising, complete with protruding plastic ties at eye height!)

  ‘All and sundry’ is just another phrase for ‘the community’ isn’t it?

  Another strong endorsement for Niko here. Super professional, did a great job fixing a pipe and bottle trap in our bathroom, with no fuss or drama. He's also a thoroughly nice fella, so deserves all the good words being said about him here. 100% recommended. Give him a call 07818 607583.

  They’re not there to be used by all and sundry for their private businesses (which earn money) — social media, postcards in shop windows, ads on the EDF and free newspapers are the right methods for that. I agree though that these notice boards should be kept in better nick and used as planned, namely to advertise council services etc.
