Our polish service includes thorough cleaning, preparation of the surface, application of appropriate polishing compounds, and finishing with protective sealants or waxes. We service a wide range of materials including wood furniture, metal fixtures, stone surfaces, glass items, and leather upholstery. Each service is customized to the specific material and condition of your items.

The frequency depends on the material, usage, and environmental conditions. For frequently used wood furniture, we recommend polishing every 3-6 months. Stone countertops benefit from professional polishing every 12-18 months. Metal fixtures may need attention every 6-12 months depending on exposure to moisture. Our technicians can provide a customized maintenance schedule during your service appointment.

Yes, we use high-quality, professional-grade polishing products that are safe for your home environment. Many of our products are eco-friendly and low-VOC. For clients with specific concerns about chemical sensitivities or environmental preferences, we offer green alternatives that deliver excellent results without harsh chemicals. All our technicians are trained in proper product application and safety protocols.

Our polishing services can effectively address minor to moderate scratches, water rings, and surface stains on most materials. For wood furniture, we can often diminish or eliminate surface scratches and water marks. On stone surfaces, we can remove most etching and light scratches. However, deep gouges or severe damage may require more extensive restoration services. During our initial assessment, we'll provide honest feedback about what results you can expect.

Service duration varies depending on the type and number of items being polished. A typical dining table and chairs set might take 2-3 hours to polish properly. A marble countertop could take 1-2 hours depending on size and condition. For larger projects like multiple rooms of furniture or extensive stone surfaces, we may recommend scheduling a full day. We'll provide a time estimate when you book your appointment.

For the best results, we recommend clearing items from surfaces to be polished and providing clear access to furniture. For wood furniture, removing decorative items, electronics, and papers is helpful. For countertops, please clear all appliances and kitchen items. There's no need to clean beforehand, as our process includes thorough cleaning. For large projects, we appreciate having a water source and electrical outlets available.

Yes, our technicians are specially trained to work with antique and delicate items. We use gentle techniques and appropriate products for valuable pieces, taking into consideration the age, material, and finish of your treasured possessions. For particularly valuable antiques, we can perform a small test in an inconspicuous area before proceeding with the full treatment to ensure your complete satisfaction and the item's safety.

The durability of professional polishing varies by material and usage. With proper care, wood furniture polishing typically lasts 3-6 months before showing signs of dulling. Stone surfaces maintain their luster for 12-18 months under normal use. The protective treatments we apply create a barrier against everyday wear that significantly outlasts DIY products. We'll provide specific care instructions to help you maximize the lifespan of our polishing treatments.

Yes, we offer convenient maintenance plans tailored to your specific needs. Our plans include scheduled polishing services at recommended intervals for your particular items and usage patterns. Maintenance plan customers receive priority scheduling, special pricing, and complementary touch-ups between regular appointments. This proactive approach helps preserve the beauty and extend the life of your valuable furniture and fixtures while providing consistent, predictable care.

Professional polishing typically enhances rather than changes the natural appearance of your items. For wood, polishing brings out the natural grain and depth of color. For stone, it restores the original luster and character. We don't typically alter colors unless specifically requested. If you're concerned about potential changes, we can test in an inconspicuous area first or discuss specific expectations before beginning the service to ensure the results align with your vision.
