First Impressions

Nexus Business Space - Edinburgh


Handy David, Edinburgh Handyman Services, was asked to fix up the entrance to a local business, Nexus Business Space, as the mouldings at the foot of the main door surround had been badly repaired previously and were starting to deteriorate.

To fix the woodwork I first scraped all the soft filler that had been used and then removed the wooden mouldings to clean up and then re-affixed with panel pins.

The woodwork was then filled, patched and sanded back with an exterior resin based filler.
The repaired woodwork was painted with a coat of undercoat and 2 coats of gloss. Exterior frame sealant was then applied to neaten up bottom edges.

A coat of black gloss was applied to the kick-board as it looked a bit sorry for it’self  once mouldings were finished.
