Restoring Interior Timber Trims in Glen Iris – A Touch of Timeless Warmth
Published by MJ Harris Painting
Bringing Timber Back to Life
At MJ Harris Painting, we understand the beauty that quality timber details bring to a home. In a recent project in Glen Iris, our team took on the task of restoring interior stained timber trims that had seen better days.
These trims, once rich and warm, had become faded and worn over time. Rather than replacing them, our goal was to restore their original charm—preserving the home’s character and enhancing its natural aesthetic.


Our Restoration Process
We began with a thorough inspection of the timber, assessing the wear and finish. Then:
- Careful sanding removed the old, damaged layers without compromising the grain.
- We re-stained the timber to match the original tones, restoring depth and warmth.
- A clear protective topcoat was applied to seal and protect the finish for the long term.
Every step was done with precision and respect for the existing craftsmanship.
Why Timber Trim Restoration Matters
Timber trims may be a subtle feature, but they make a big difference to the interior feel—especially in character-filled homes across Glen Iris. Restoring them:
- Maintains original design integrity
- Adds value and warmth to your space
- Is a sustainable alternative to replacement
