Custom Baltimore architectural millwork can take an ordinary interior and elevate it into something more refined, elegant, and a step above what you normally see in interiors throughout Baltimore. Because millwork is created using wood that has been expertly worked to give the look you desire, it’s important to keep it looking its best by spending some time maintaining it. Luckily, custom Baltimore architectural millwork requires very little upkeep so by following these tips and periodically spending a little time cleaning and maintaining your millwork, it will look great for decades.
Custom Baltimore architectural millwork needs proper care to look its best.
Maintaining Your Custom Baltimore Architectural Millwork
Like most wood products, custom Baltimore architectural millwork requires some upkeep to keep it looking its best. Keep an eye on your millwork for signs of damage and deterioration and if you notice problems be sure to attend to them immediately. Small dings and scratches can easily be repaired by dipping a q-tip into wood stain, dabbing it onto a paper towel to remove excess product, and then apply to the damage. Any excess product should be removed using a clean, cotton rag.
If your custom Baltimore architectural millwork involves an exterior product that will be exposed to the elements such as windows and doors, you’ll want to periodically clean it and then maintain the wood using wood oil. Keep an eye out for mold and fungus and if you notice any signs of these problems then clean your millwork thoroughly using one part bleach to 3 parts water. Be sure to wear protective gloves and goggles during this process to prevent skin irritation. After cleaning, apply a coat of wood oil. You can choose to use colored or non-colored oil, depending upon your preference. Use a brush to apply the oil and then use a clean cotton rag to thoroughly remove any excess product. Wood oil will restore your custom Baltimore architectural millwork to its original rich finish.
