Medicine Wood LLC is a preservation and restoration firm dedicated to the careful stewardship of historic buildings and homes. We specialize in conserving, repairing, and restoring these buildings in a manner consistent with the original methods and materials of their making.
Medicine Wood provides expert restoration of historic windows, doors, and architectural millwork, emphasizing repair over replacement whenever possible. Original fabric is stabilized, conserved, and returned to service for another generation. When components are missing or beyond repair, we faithfully reproduce the original joinery and millwork to create an exact replica.
Medicine Wood also offers architectural interpretation and historic structure surveys to help property owners, architects, and preservation professionals better understand the history and construction of their buildings. These investigations often guide sensitive restoration work, ensuring that interventions respect both the building's historic character and structural integrity.
Whether addressing a single architectural feature or an entire structure, Medicine Wood approaches each project with a commitment to craftsmanship, historical accuracy, and long-term durability.
We believe that historic buildings embody cultural memory that demands preservation. By combining traditional techniques with informed preservation practice, Medicine Wood helps ensure that these structures remain functional, meaningful, and enduring features of the built landscape.
Medicine Wood has provided preservation services to the Old Salem Shrine, LeDuc Historic Estate, Henry Sibley House, Newport Public Library, and numerous private residences and buildings.
