    1940s Tea set

    Fantastic service! Professionalism at its finest! Thank you for restoring our family heirloom from the 1940s! It need a lot of love, broken pieces rust and all but Mr. Chidgey got the job done. I'd recommend them to any one needing a professional quality restoration! Our family is forever grateful!

    Before photo, you can see the deposits and uneven plating

    I was introduced to Jack Chidgey through an engraver in downtown San Diego ( Engraving by Jack) - difference Jacks. Anyways I had a champagne saber engraved and wanted it to be silver plated, the sword was from amazon and it's bought condition wasn't the best condition. Chidgey and Sons does a lot of different types of metal plating and he gave me serval options for best price and condition outcomes. I decide to have the sword replated in silver so that it would look far better than its mediocre condition and really stand out as this was to be a displace piece. Come to find out the sword was already chrome plated. Jack gave it a very nice professional polish and when I can to pick it up there was no charge! He's a great guy and do phenomenal work! If there's ever any plating or polishing I need I work recommend you go to Chidgey and Son. I've included a before and after pic of my piece

    I had a set of brass connectors for a bookcase resurfaced in stainless when they were located downtown. They did a great job.

    I took two stunning but beat up brass lamps to them, and in no time Chidgey and sons rendered them gleaming, Silver plated and coated.

She then threatened me when I asked for the CPA, stating that they shredded my original financial documents & to stop calling. This is after telling me that she would look for them in the basement.

    I have been using Hoffman & Associates for approx 14 years now! My son and daughter have also been…read moreusing their services, as did my mother for many years. I am based in London, England. Mike Hoffman has been a great help with my UK and USA taxes! Mike and Tara are extremely approachable and have put my mind at rest when helping to sort all of my taxes in connection with two countries! So pleased and can't recommend enough! Denise Korsaks
