Painting and Carpentry Restoration of Mother Bethel Church in Center City Philadelphia

Project Overview

The Church’s glorious sanctuary windows were in need of full restoration. The problem was the wood was so deteriorated that it would have been impossible to dutchman new wood into the old. Our only way forward was using Abatron 2-part Wood Epoxy! We applied 10 gallons of the stuff and it saved the day. Impenetrable to the elements, wood epoxy is safe to use, easy to shape, and looks like the real thing. Hats off to Cory and Bob for playing jazz and developing the technique to form the epoxy into curves and bends.

This famous row of Voctorians seems to get photographed and instagrammed every day! 705 S. 3rd had fallen into major disrepair. The metal bay was completely falling apart in spots, especially the seams, which allow water (and wildlife) to enter.

Interior Painting & Window Replacement

This 1920’s bungalow style house is quite unlike the other houses in the area. We painted the entire exterior, and installed new windows throughout, adding in a 3-panel picture window which opened up the first floor to great possibilities!
