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.

Wonderful restoration! This skillet was grungy when it was given to me in 1968. We didn’t help it when we had it. Now it’s as good as it ever was.
Thank you

Smithey Ironware is top notch. The restoration process was seamless and worth every penny. Will be doing more business in the future and can’t recommend them enough. Looking forward to visiting the physical location in Charleston this summer.

I had my Wagner Ware Sidney 0 restored. It was my dad’s and was caked with carbon and rust. It looks brand new and is seasoned properly. Well done Smithey…. Service was fast. If I buy new it will be a Smithey.
