I had recently bought a new door which was unfinished for my living room and had a coffee table which had been in the family for generations badly needing attention. I called Smiths Polishing whom were very helpfull and arranged to estimate and collect my pieces from my home. I wanted my door colour matched to the rest of my mahogany surrounds and other existing door and my table restored back to its natural former glory.

I had Smiths polishing restore my Steinway Upright piano and the results are outstanding. Superb attention to detail you would have thought I had bought it new from a showroom.I highly recommend this company an absolute pleasure to deal with for the service and as new condition of my piano. Even their removers were so professional

Our Victorian chest of drawers and two coffee tables (one oval, the other glass topped with a nest of three tables below) have been beautifully restored and rejuvenated. The service and work has been professionally and carefully carried out. Highly recommended.

First class advice. Gave me so much of their time to come up with the best solution. Service can't be faulted.

Had my Grandparents dining table restored by Smiths for my mother and I could not be more delighted with the results. The varnish had flaked off badly and there were large chunks missing thanks to an incident with a steel curtain rail, but I cant even see where the damage used to be! Looks like a new table.

Requirement my staircase stripped and stained to match my floor and some painting required on staircase. Guys came and inspected the work and gave a quote the same day and were able to start quickly. Very happy with the work and finish. High quality and standard. Would highly recommend.

I am delighted with the finished result after the team's hard work to restore the doors, facings and fireplace in my tenement flat. Smiths Polishing provided a professional service throughout and kept me well informed along the way. I appreciate all the advice and their flexibility to work around my schedule. I would highly recommend. Thanks!

Excellent service and job. David spent time to really understand what we wanted and his expertise was spot on in what he advised. He managed to colour match new and old wood of over 100years old. Reliable, turned up when agreed and price was as quoted. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
