Our Bronze Restoration Process
We assess the piece and its existing patina, gently remove corrosion, bird soiling, and failed coatings, then conserve or re-establish the finish — from a living statuary patina to a polished architectural sheen. We seal with a protective wax or lacquer suited to indoor or outdoor exposure so the result endures.
Outdoor and Architectural Bronze
Exterior bronze develops green and black corrosion from weather and pollutants. We restore monuments, building bronze, and ornamental work on site, with full insurance and certificates on file for institutional and commercial projects.
Why Rose Restoration
Family-run since 1978, with craftsmen who conserve rather than replace. Our work appears in landmark buildings across the DC metro, backed by our written workmanship warranty.
Serving the DC Metro
