    Check with your management company. The first Wood was done not so long ago.

    Yeah did that but the company used by the management company quoted me a ridiculous amount, close to €500. So any other recommendations would be appreciated

    I'm not sure if 500 is too ridiculous for that job.
    There's quite a bit of work involved. Sanding down and cleaning old varnished surfaces takes a bit of time.
    Then a couple coats of varnish allowing a few days drying and resanding in between coats.
    And good quality varnish isn't cheap.

    How many windows and doors involved?

    I'm not in the decorating business and can't recommend anybody
    but I don't think 500 is a rip off for that job if its properly done.
