In Brief

Heritage brought a bronze outdoor fountain to our studio for a restoration project. Our staff used chemical compounds to clean the fountain’s surface and make it presentable once again.

 

Project Overview

Heritage Restoration was invited to bid and participate in the restoration of the Natural History Building located on the campus of the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. This 1892 structure was designed by Nathan Clifford Ricker. Ricker became the first person in the United States of America to receive an architecture degree. The Natural History Building was inducted into the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. Heritage Restoration was responsible for restoring the majority of the woodwork in this building, as well as recreating a missing four-story staircase.

Between the years 2016 and 2018, Heritage Restoration refinished thousands of feet of both millwork and doors for the Ricker Natural History Building in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. We also recreated a missing four story staircase as an exact copy of its original design. Using footage taken during the project, Heritage’s staff has gone back and prepared a series of short videos to show a behind-the-scenes look at this historic restoration.

Overview

Recently, an antique plaster memorial plaque was discovered in a church’s attic. It commemorates members of the parish who gave their lives in the service of their country during the Second World War. A full restoration was required to salvage the plaque so that it could once again hang proudly inside the church.
