ABOUT US

Protek was founded in 1963 in Randolph, Massachusetts. During the course of these last forty years Protek has grown to provide almost all office services and office refurbishment throughout an entire office, as evidenced by the many and wide range of services as outlined in this site.

From time to time we are called upon to provide additional services not outlined in our normal operational procedures. However, for the benefit of our customers and clients if we are able to provide these additional services at the time when completing the contracted for refurbishing services it is always our pleasure to provide these additional services even though they are not listed in our normal operating procedures.

An area of concern by many corporate clients is interference in the daily business routine providing any, refurbishing services. As a direct result of those concerns Protek has been providing these refurbishment services over a course of a weekend so as not to interfere in the daily business routine and yet allow plenty of time for the drying of these many services.

On a separate page at this site we list additional service items that can be incorporated in one refurbishment job.

Any and all of these services are normally performed on-site so as to be cost effective with the exception of reupholstering of upholstered furniture and refinishing of woods.

Keeping in mind that there is a major difference betiveen refurbishing of furniture and refinishing and reupholstering. The process of refurbishing takes into consideration the nicks, scratches, chips and the natural drying out of wood and attempts to fill in and repair as needed and provide an oil treatment so as to protect and preserve the wood and maintain its suppleness. The refinishing of wood allows us to remove the piece from the office environment and bring it to our shop. At that point we would completely strip, sand, refinish and return the furniture to the office. Needless to say the cost associated with refurbishing as compared to refinishing is quite different and thus refurbishment always proves to be more cost effective in both the short and long run.

Protek prides itself on quality supervision and has a ratio of 4 people to every I supervisor for on-site work. It is because of this quality control that has allowed Protek the opportunity to provide large amounts of furniture to be serviced in the course of one day or one weekend. Thereby eliminating a long, drawn out processes that could takes weeks or even months to complete, causing much disturbance and chaos and costs throughout the office environment.

Protek is proud of its many years of service to the Greater Boston Area as evidenced by a number of our satisfied clients on the page called "Clients".
