Recs for paint strippers
All of my doors and frames are caked with paint and I need to send them out for stripping. The last time I had paint stripped it was a disaster, so I'm looking for a recommendation for professional strippers who won't destroy the wood. Any suggestions? Thanks!

We used East End Woodstrippers (718 783-4112) and were very pleased with the results. We sent them ALL our doors, some of which were in such bad shape and looked so sad, that our GC told us to get rid of them. With some TLC and a fresh coat of paint, they look amazing. We also sent 20 books of shutters which also came back looking great. We stained and polyed them and have not had any separation at the joints, or other horror stories.

I just used Park Slope Paint Strippers for 2 doors and they did a good job and fast too. Had them back within a week. Mine were only single panel, but all the paint is gone and they only need very minimal sanding. You can find a few other recs for them here on the forum.
