The country charm of the rolling blue ridge hills opens in to a delightfully designed 19th century farmhouse. The reclaimed barnwood used for paneling has dated period newspaper adhered to the finish for an authentic dated feel. Gepetto Craftsmen finished the kitchen counters with solid walnut counter tops, contrasting with bright white finish on the cabinetry. Joining the small kitchen space to the dining room is a custom butcher block style countertop. We crafted a solid wood live or raw edge dining table with three inch thick hardwood top. Solid wood counter tops in the bathroom and other antique chic features unify the rooms throughout the house. Richmond Custom Kitchen Builder Services.
Reclaimed Barnwood for Wall Paneling
You’ll notice the wall paneling in many rooms was speckled with period newspapers which we found while cleaning out the walls. To build the legend of the house, as well as period color to the walls we ripped and pasted sections into the old boards as we sealed them for final install. The pant chips are authentic and the final patina a priceless touch that both unifies the rooms while adding unique details that are worth bending over to read. If you are designing a country house look and feel contact us to discuss techniques to build the story, legend and look in your finished project.
We have brought the unique texture and feel of reclaimed wood installations to office space construction, creative restaurant building, hospitality spaces in hotels, and rustic bar fabrication. If you have a barn on your property you would like to convert it to furnishings for your kitchen cabinets, tables, wall coverings or any other design elements for your new construction drop us a note to start your project.
Solid Wood Door Restoration & Refinishing VASolid Wood Door Restoration & Refinishing VA
Wood entry door restoration and refinishing contractors usually start with stripping old paint or finishes. Rotten wood may be stabilized and patched with epoxy, or new wood elements patched in. Cracked and split wood panels may be replaced, hardware and art glass restored or replicated, fit of the doors adjusted, and new finishes applied.
Save thousands of dollars by refinishing your doors rather than buying new ones. Commercial Doors require a specialized knowledge to preserve the quality and provide a durable finish that will stand up to both weather and customer abuse. Many times this requires a small annual charge for ongoing maintenance by us once the doors are refinished. This way they always look beautiful and maintenance is always less expensive than a total refinish.
A wood-consolidant (also known as wood stabilizer) will be used to strengthen the wood fibers of the rotted areas and return some of the wood’s structural integrity. For large areas of damage, consider replacing the damaged wood with a new section of wood. For smaller areas of damage and doors to be repainted as in this project, remove any loose or dry-rotted pieces. Sand the door as needed. For a door to be finished as natural wood, completely remove every bit of paint and sand thoroughly. For a door to be repainted, sand rough spots until the door is smooth and ready for paint.
For areas of soft wood (nearly dry-rotted), use a rotted-wood stabilizer. Use a chisel or scraper to remove any badly rotted areas or old wood filler (Image 1).
Apply the stabilizer (Image 2) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and let it dry until the wood hardens.
Sand down the paint around the damaged area to bare wood. Remove any dust.
Using a polyester or epoxy resin filler, fill the damaged area to the surface and cover any voids (Image 3). This will harden to a tough surface ideal for attaching the hardware screws. Allow the filler to harden as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Sand the finish surface smooth. First use a flat rasp, then rough-grade sandpaper and finally with finishing grade sandpaper.
A longtime fixture in the architectural woodwork industry, Gepetto Millworks has been recognized throughout its 20-year history for many of its high-profile projects around Richmond.

“Millwork” refers to the stuff traditionally made in a mill. Items such as base trim, crown molding, interior doors, door frames, window casing, chair rails and wood paneling are all examples of millwork. These items are all cut and created from raw lumber – in a sawmill – thus, giving them the umbrella term “millwork.” Millwork may also include decorative products, such as mantels and door casings. Millwork can be made from common woods such as pine and oak, but it may also include uncommon woods such as fir, poplar, hickory and maple. Some manufactured wood products also have a high enough density to be used for millwork, such as MDF. Millwork products only need nails, screws or adhesives to be installed, which makes using them easy and convenient. Millwork can be at standard lengths and can be stained or painted.
Architectural millwork does not have to necessarily be built-in to a structure. It can be a free-standing piece such as this rolling kitchen island (pictured right) that South Shore Millwork built for a home on the South Shore. Not to mention architectural millwork can be either stock (“off-the-shelf”), semi-custom, or custom such as what South Shore Millwork provides.
