What our customers say
A few of the notes and thank-yous we've received from customers across Sussex, Surrey, Kent and London.
“Dear Barbara, Thank you for doing such a sensitive and professional restoration of our living room pine wood panelled wall. Also thank you for leaving the room so clean and tidy each day and putting the furniture back for us too (and bringing my washing in off the line on a rainy day when I was in work – so thoughtful of you!) We will be certainly looking to book you in for further work in the future and recommending you to our friends.”
“Dear Barb & team, I came in to have a peep tonight, I just wanted to say how fabulous the panelling is looking. I never imagined that you could get them looking as good as this. Well done for all your hard work. Many thanks.”
“To Barbara, Thank you so much for all your hard effort on our stairs, the house looks so much better now, thank you for leaving my home spotless every day, I will highly recommend you in the future. Once again, a big thank you.”
“Dear Barbara, Just a note to say thank you for restoring my floors, they look lovely. We will recommend you to our friends.”

Fabulous company, I would use again
Meticulous work wonderfully done, every time I walk down our staircase I am pleased with the result. I can absolutely recommend Back 2 Wood. A fantastic service.
Excellent work.
Barbara is knowledgeable, professional and her work is of high quality. She is punctual and communicates well. We are highly satisfied with her work.
Windsor chair
Superb restoration of my grandmother's Windsor chair. It was so bad I didn't want it in the house, but it's now so beautiful I am proud to own it.
Quality workmanship and service
Barbara converted our 1930's house, which was "muffled" in carpet, back to its former glory, transforming the original wooden floors into a fabulous feature. Always sympathetic to the environment, Barbara has used materials that perfectly match the job, and has worked tirelessly to achieve a quality finish. She has always provided us with an excellent service, completed on time and kept to her quote; plus she's always been a delight to have in our home. Wouldn't hesitate to use her again, or to recommend her work.
Great results, very professional service
Barbara refurbished a dining table & side-board for us. She was very professional and did an outstanding job with great results. She explained her work schedule to us and was very careful & considerate working in our home. Will recommend her to others.
Beautiful restored floors and staircase
We had some badly scratched, patchy and worn solid oak floors. Back 2 Wood did an excellent job of restoring them. We now have a beautiful living, dining, kitchen floor and staircase and landings that look like new. Barbara initially came to assess the job and provided us with options and clear estimates of cost. Once we'd accepted her quote she carefully carried out some test matching of the original floor stain and programmed the sequence of work thoroughly. She was very accommodating and worked round our timing. We're very satisfied customers and have no hesitation in recommending her.
Amazing Results & Highly Recommend
Barbara did an amazing job removing heavy dark varnish from our staircase and porch doors back to the original wood, all by hand to leave a perfect finish. Our hallway has been completely transformed and looks better than we could have hoped for. She left the hall, stairs and landing clean and tidy everyday so we could use these areas as normal. We would highly recommend Back 2 Wood. Thank you Barbara!
