Historic Connecticut Private School Undergoes Restoration

Massive wood paneling and furniture refurbishing project gives new life to large dining room & banquet hall

For this 6-month project, OFS would like to thank our friends at Petra Construction, a fantastic construction management and general contracting company located in North Haven, CT.

One of the many industries Petra specializes in is education, with an impressive list of completed projects at prestigious campuses, schools, and institutions throughout Connecticut.

Hall facelift preserves the room’s charm and history.

This recent project for Avon Old Farms School called for woodwork refinishing on tables, benches, and large, rich wood paneling and millwork that adorn the vast dining and event space. A perfect fit for the wood refinishing services of OFS Corp.

As with other similar historic restorations and refurbishments OFS has worked on, the leadership at Avon Old Farms requested a delicate process by which we renew the original style and restore faded, stained, and “damaged”surfaces, while still maintaining many of the blemishes, history, and charm captured within the school’s fine wood finishes.

Wood millwork restored after years of exposure to steam and heat from dining hall food service stations.

We refer to this as historic refurbishment and it results in more of a classic restoration rather than a like-new appearance. OFS applies our own proprietary method to achieve the vintage look our discerning clients and partners prefer.
