French Polisher Chelsea
Specialist wood restoration for the finest homes in Chelsea
Chelsea's Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and contemporary mansion flats demand a standard of finish that matches the quality of the property itself. Whether it's a period staircase in a King's Road townhouse, a dining table in a Cheyne Walk apartment or interior doors throughout a newly renovated home — we restore and refinish to a standard that complements Chelsea's exceptional interiors.
We work regularly across Chelsea — from the grand period homes of Carlyle Square to modern conversions along the Embankment. Two master craftsmen on-site. Minimal disruption. Results that last.

Staircase & Handrail Restoration
Period staircases are one of Chelsea's most prized architectural features. We restore and repolish original timber staircases, banisters and handrails — stripping back years of wear to reveal the natural beauty of the wood beneath.
Front & Interior Doors
Victorian front doors refinished to their original character. Interior doors colour matched to your newly renovated interiors. The door stays on its hinges throughout.
