Call in the wood restoration experts for your bar or restaurant
If there’s one place where the use of wood can really have an impact, it’s in a bar. We recently visited London bar Callooh Callay which featured, among other items, a bar area with unusual wooden decking underneath the main counter; parquet flooring in some places and wide stained shabby-chic floorboards in others; highly-polished retro veneer tables for diners and antique-style carved wooden occasional tables for drinkers. Phew! Not only is that a whole lotta wood, it’s a whole lot of mis-matched styles and types of wood, too!

Unless you work for Terry Waters French Polishing, that is, where you’re never off-duty. It’ll take more than an air of menace, a few ghosties and a demented Jack Nicholson to keep us from spotting a fictional French polishing challenge.
Looking After Your Bar
Wooden surfaces are naturally antiseptic. The enzymes which protect wood during its lifetime, also carry on working when the wood is processed and turned into an object. This is why chopping boards and other food preparation surfaces have always traditionally been made of wood. It also explains why wood is still used extensively in the catering industry for bar surfaces, and in other areas where food and drink are commonly served or prepared.
