Simon really got us out of a pickle last Christmas. We had a hoard of guests descending with a month to go and some very sorry looking dining chairs. He quite frankly worked miracles in restoring them to their former glory in terms of polishing, seat covering and repair. Would heartily recommend him. Fair price for a fair amount of work unlike another quote we had locally.

We have been delighted to be able to give our old, tired pine furniture a new lease of life. Simon has repainted beds, bedside tables, chests of drawers and bookshelves to a really high standard giving them a beautiful finish and it feels like we have a whole suite of new furniture.

After almost throwing away an old pine table and corner unit, I came across Simon's website so gave it a try. SO glad I did. Table has a new lease of life and the corner unit looks like it's always been this way. I've just had a chest of drawers done to match, which look fabulous. It's true what they say, reuse and recycle! Excellent friendly and professional service, highly recommend. Thanks!!

Simon restored some valued but damaged pieces of furniture, which had been in the family for up to 4 generations. His work was very impressive - you couldn't see any joins! - beautifully re-polished. We now have some attractive pieces which will give several more decades of use and enjoyment. Great value for money! Would definitely use Simon again.

Simon restored our pine kitchen which was 20 years old. He made a wonderful job and it now looks like new. His attention to detail and standard of work is brilliant. Our kitchen can now go on for a further 20 years! Highly recommended.

After making a wonderful job of restoring my pine kitchen Simon returned and fitted cornices to finish the job off nicely. It was not that easy to do and Simon is a perfectionist and spent a lot of time getting it to fit correctly. It is so nice to find a workman these days who takes a pride in his work, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks so much.

Delighted when a much lovely fairly modern table and chairs (all falling apart at seams) were restored to new. Fast and friendly service at a very competitive price. Would highly recommend.

Simon transformed my furniture from old and tatty to looking new and modern. I had some old bare pine furniture with stains and marks on them - the restoration and new handles make them now look like a lovely bedroom set straight from an up-market department store.

Firstly Simon restored the top of an oak trunk damaged by a heat mark. Due the excellent quality of his work, his friendly nature and very competitive price, we used him again to restore and re-polish an old bureau that we found in a local shop. Would highly recommend.

A nest of art deco side tables which had suffered considerable deliberate damage (gouges, scratches etc) were restored and re-polished to their original state. Almost impossible to believe they were the same tables! A fantastic job and a great advertisement for the quality of the work done by Simon at SPH Restoration.

Simon, the items of furniture you painted for us have transformed something from being dated to completely on trend. The finish is fantastic and we are delighted. Thank you.

Simon has worked wonders on my Ercol dining table, chairs and coffee table. Wear from over the years has been removed - all looks better than new!

We have used SPH Restoration on a number of occasions for the repair of oak furniture items. Simon has the skill and ability to tackle even the most difficult repairs and each job has been completed to complete satisfaction, every time. 

The service provided by SPH Restoration from start to finish by far exceeded our expectations and we most definitely recommend the company to anyone seeking perfect results.

We had the mahogany table for now some 40 plus years. We have had it treated on two occasions before. Neither previous treatment has come up anywhere near the standard you have provided. It made the whole dining room look very shabby. The finish on the table and the service that you provided are second to none. I wish you all the best in the future and I am sure that if you provide this quality of service you will go far.

We contacted Simon Harlow as we had an antique metal lined tool chest that needed to be repaired and restored as a gift for our son. We are delighted with the results of his workmanship and TLC. It has been transformed into a beautiful piece of furniture, renewed but still keeping all the original fittings and effect. Our son is thrilled with it.

A prompt, efficient friendly service was provided by Simon. A dining table we thought beyond salvation - repaired and restored to full use, chairs re-glued and 2 occasional tables polished and inlay matched. We are very happy to recommend excellent service at a competitive price.

Mrs Pinney

An excellent job was made of restoring an old standard lamp. A good service all round with pick up and drop off provided.

Firstly, re-polished and replaced some walnut veneer on dining room table. Then re-polished matching sideboard. Was of excellent quality.
