Records of every job


As part of our ongoing commitment to offering the best in customer service, Simmonds Polishing keeps records of every project we undertake.

Often we see a panel or two come back needing repairs. It may just be a small scratch or perhaps something more serious. Sometimes a client may supply additional joinery that must match the original painting we did previously.

On Site Repairs







The picture above shows up a common mistake made by on site installers.

The handrail was sanded at the join and re lacquered with a clear polyurethane product that the installer had lying around in the back of his truck.

NEW PRODUCTS NOW AVAILABLE




As you know we here at Simmonds Polishing see our mission as far more than just painting and Polishing joinery. We strive to be a one stop shop for all the surface coating needs of our clients. Afterall you don’t want the hassle of trying to find someone to attend to a one-off unusual application when its so much easier to simply drop it down to us and let us organise everything.
