Historic Preservation

Historic Preservation from Kronenberger & Sons is a great way to keep those old or original fixtures in your home or property. Time doesn’t treat most things well. Over time warps and twists can form and paint can begin to chip. Not only does this create an issue for visuals and aesthetics, but it can also cause health issues. This is because many older paints and construction materials contain lead and asbestos. These materials are known to be hazardous and in the 1970’s were made illegal for use in most construction circumstances. Kronenberger & Sons not only restores doors, windows, wood, metal, and more, but they remove hazardous materials as well.

Modern homes and buildings are nice, but they lack the charm and aesthetic quality of historic and classic home design. That’s why it’s so important to keep these historic buildings alive and in pristine condition. Contact Kronenberger & Sons through their website.
