Why Restoration

Cast iron cookware is made to last for generations. But despite best intentions, sometimes life happens. We’ve heard the stories about your best friend putting your prized skillet through the dishwasher, or leaving your favorite piece by the campfire in the rain. Or maybe you have a special piece of cast iron passed down from your great grandma that has seen better days. We are here to help restore your beloved cookware to its former glory. We love cast iron and we love restoring cast iron.


When you send your cookware back to us, it will be under the expert care of our cast iron restoration team. We will lovingly care for your cast iron or carbon steel cookware, taking it through our specialized restoration process. Whether it’s a Smithey, an old Griswold or Wagner, we would be honored to bring your pan back to life and send it back to you for another lifetime of memories.

After checkout, we will email you a pre-paid return slip within 1 business day of your order being placed. 

Use your own box to securely package your cookware to send back to us.  

Once your Smithey is received, give us 3 weeks to complete the restoration process and your cookware will be back on its way to you! 

Restoration service only available to US customer addresses

My skillet has a new life

My skillet was a crusty mess. I inherited it from my MIL. Smithey restoration made it look so close to new. I am so pleased with results. I will definitely use them in the future.
