THE CRAFTSMAN
"The finest craft brands have always been defined by the person behind the work"
Nick Sinclair
Founder & Master Craftsman
For nearly three decades, Nick has worked across the country restoring some of Britain’s most distinguished period properties. What began as traditional craftsmanship evolved into something more precise, more protective.
Frustrated by the limitations of conventional methods. The clouds of dust, the chemical strippers, the compromises forced upon homeowners, he developed the Back From Black method. A dust-free process that could reveal the original beauty of painted oak beams without the disruption or damage that plagued the industry.
Today, that dedication to protecting both timber and home defines every restoration we undertake.
