We embark on all kinds of decant, relocation, and installation projects for large and heavy objects, mainly in museum, ecclesiastical, and country house settings.
We can also offer research and analytical survey services, and conservation treatments for precious objects. Skillingtons work regularly for English Heritage and for a range of private homeowners, churches, abbeys and cathedrals.
