History
Weldon has been involved in restoring and recreating many historic floors from the British Galleries' collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum to Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace and floors purchased by Charles Dickens for his home at Gad's Hill.
The restoration and conservation of ancient floors requires an in-depth knowledge of the history of hardwood flooring. Jasper Weldon is passionate about the subject, and recently wrote an article for the Building Conservation Directory regarding the history of parquet.
