If you live in a historic home, you may have noticed that the railings are starting to show their age. Over time, the paint can start to chip and the wood can become warped or cracked. Fortunately, there are a few things you can do to revive your historic railings. With a little bit of time and effort, you can restore them to their former glory.
Key Steps on How to Revive Your Railings
One of the first things you’ll need to do is remove any old paint or primer. This can be done with a power washer or a sandblaster or just some sandpaper and elbow grease. Once the surface is clean, you’ll need to repair any damage to the wood. This may involve replacing some of the railing, if it is too damaged. Once the repairs are complete, you’ll need to sand the railing smooth. Finally, you can apply a new coat of paint or stain. With proper care, your railings will last for many years to come.
