Victorian Salvage

We are well placed here in countries capital to take advantage of wealth of Victorian items being removed from houses in London during private refurbishments council led modernisation programmes, and the demolition of entire buildings. It is an evolving trade with considerable diversity in the finds available at any given time.

The 'antiques' side of demolition salvage is concerned with: interior fittings; items such as baths, toilets, sinks and fireplaces; joinery, fine mouldings and reclaimed flooring; stained glass; ironwork; garden statuary.

Materials salvaged from Victorian buildings have always been popular because of the quality of the craftsmanship. One of the appeals of architectural salvage is the quality of much of the material that finds its way to salvage yards, however humble its origins might have been.
