Stilewood helps you take the guess work out of distressing.

Therefore, by its very nature, distressing guarantees that every product is unique. Since the distressing and texturing process at Stilewood is done by hand, no two pieces can ever be identical or replicated. Distressing focuses on obvious worn areas, such as the corners or the bottom - places that most likely receive the most wear, damage and usage.Īt Stilewood, we consider the process of distressing an art. By distressing, we are able to age the wood to whatever look you desire, and as a result, give the wood an antique feel. Wood distressing or “antiquing” involves a technique of either a mechanical and/or chemical nature that is used to texture wood in order to provide an “aged” look or to replicate a certain age or period of time. As we are dedicated to providing “furniture for your walls,” we treat every one of our products like a piece of high-end furniture, ensuring a pre-finishing quality that is unmatched.Īs a custom option on all of our products, Stilewood offers complete distressing services through our in-house team of experienced distressing professionals. Pre-finishing is not an automated process, but one that incorporates old-world traditions and processes and one that does not allow technology to surpass old-world customs. The result is a high quality, smooth, furniture-grade finish. Our pre-finishing process is very detailed, with each product undergoing a comprehensive process that ensures a uniform colour, texture, sheen and finish and that provides the ultimate in protection and durability for your doors.

Our expert pre-finishers also help you select a colour choice and provide you with sample submissions of your final product.Īt Stilewood, we use the finest stains and finishes for all of our pre-finishing work which includes staining, priming and painting options.

With a number of standard colors available, we also welcome any custom colour requests that you may have. We also have the ability to match your pre-finishing choice with other elements in your home such as your furniture and cabinets. Our comprehensive pre-finishing process ensures that the natural beauty and grain of the wood is highlighted and enhanced in every piece we do, bringing out the art of the wood. Pre-finishing not only protects wood, it also provides an element of beauty to your finished product. Pre-finishing protects the wood from reabsorbing water and protects the wood from the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays on its surface. One of the purposes of pre-finishing is to protect wood from the elements of weather as wood shrinks and expands as the moisture content changes. As a custom option on all of our products, Stilewood offers complete pre-finishing services.
