Aug 10. Jim - My pans just arrived today (one day after being shipped!!) and they are beautiful. Thank you so much. I'm so pleased with how well you were able to restore both pieces. The sauce pan was in such bad shape that my fiancee almost suggested we give it up for scrap; something I could not do as it belonged to my late aunt, and is one of the few things I have of hers. I can't believe the magic you performed on this, admittedly medium quality, pan that means so much to me. You clearly took as much care and time with this little pan as you do with the best quality cookware you have for sale. Thank you, thank you, thank you so very much. Now have I have to cook something, ANYTHING! Just to try them out! Sincerely and with ultimate gratitude -
- Astrid, MA
Aug 10. Wow, you all breathed new life into our favorite cooking vessel! I’m almost afraid to use it but when it turns cool outside…really who can resist goat cheese polenta or crème brulee…!!! Thank you all for a superb job!!
Frank, PA
Aug 10. Received the pots. They look great!
- Irv, IN
Aug.10 I want to say I received my cookware yesterday and they were fantastic. They were like new and looked unbelievable. The tin is very thick and will last a long time. They are so perfect and the copper is so shiny I hesitate to use them. Kidding... Very speedy turn-a-round and great communications. Thanks so much for providing such a great job and service. Could not be more satisfied!
- Marc, KS
Aug.10 Just received the pan. It's great--thank you very much. Potatoes Dauphinois tonight!
- Karleen, Canada
Jun.10 Awesome job. Thank You. My biggest challenge is reminding my lady friend to not use metal objects. I am not crazy but these pans are so good.
- Dan, WI
Jun.10 I just returned from Paris and found the pots you shined up and tinned. They are FABULOUS. Understand these have been in our family for years, maybe more than 150 years! I plan on sending up one more batch of pots. I love your work!
- David, PA
May.10 Wow! I picked up my pots this morning and they are gorgeous! Thank you so very much for "breathing new life" into my pots and pans. They are now ready for another round of marvelous dishes which I will enjoy creating thanks to you! I will recommend your retinning service highly to those in my circle who are in need. Thank you again!
- Keith, GA
Apr.10 Jim - My pans arrived two days ago. Thank you for such a speedy delivery. I believe my heart was racing as I unpacked the box. I admit I knew nothing about your business and , therefore, didn't know where I was sending my pans off to but, the positive comments from many of your customers on your web site gave me some sense of security. Was I ever stunned when I saw these two pans! Truly, you are a Master at your craft! I want to thank you for giving them renewed life and beauty. There will be no hesitation in the future sending my pans out for retinning. I'll keep your business card on hand since I know I'll contact you again. Most sincerely -
- Diana, CT
Mar.10 Wow….great retinning job. The pot and lids are truly amazing. I have had them retinned in the past but your work is superior, top notch. Also, even though I was not looking for a fast turnaround you delivered on that too. I’ll be back with more retinning work for you in the future.
- Michael, MA
Mar.10 Jim, You have outdone yourself. They are almost too pretty to cook in! But I can't wait. Thank you!
- Holly, CA
Feb.10 Your retinning work is superb! I am so glad I chose to resuscitate my copper pots with you. I was actually thinking of getting a new set of AllClads…but your work has created a much better and more beautiful set of pots for me at my new apartment. I was also wondering if choosing your retinning off the internet would work…and you exceeded my expectations. Keep up the great work!
- Eileen, IL
Feb.10 My pans arrived safely and they look beautiful! Thank you so much for the great work. They were a present to my daughter who coretinning uld not believe they were the same two pans. I left your card with her so that when she needs a retinning she will know where to go!
- Kay, KY
Feb.10 Jim, The pot arrived today. Absolutely gorgeous! I hate to start using it. Thanks!
- Ann, NC
Feb.10 Jim, Pots arrived all safe and absolutely gorgeous. In the 25 years I have these pots I've had them retinned 3x. Yours was absolutely the
best job. (Darn, now I wish I'd have sent in the lids! They didn't need tinning, but they look sad next to your beautiful polish job.)
Thank you for the BEAUTIFUL retinning work!
- Holly, CA
Feb.10 They just arrived -- and look great!
Thanks so much!
- Sarah, NC
Jan.10 I got my stock pot back last night and I could not be happier. As good as it looks and as much as I would like it to remain in the pristine condition you've restored it to - it is already on the stove with a simmering pot of chicken stock working. When more of my items require retinning I will certainly think of you first.
- Tom, CT
Jan.10 I got my old copper saucepan back and its better than new; you did an absolutely fantastic retinning job. I will definitely be sending additional items your way. Thanks again.
- Micahel, NY
Jan.10 Jim they look great, I don't think he'll be able to resist them. You are an artisan sir! Job well done, don't forget to slide in some of your business cards with the pan, I know a few people in need of your retinning services. Talk to you soon.
- Gwyn, CA
Dec.09 Dearest Jim - Forgive me for not writing earlier. I received my fish poacher and it is truly a beautiful retinning job. It looks better than new!! The only problem is that the work was so magnificent that I don’t want to use it. It now looks so beautiful on the shelf. Thank you so much for the amazing work you do and the prompt service. I am clear that - had I sent to the other so-called “famous” re-tinner here, I would be still waiting! Thanks again and best personal regards -
- Tonessa, NY
Dec.09 Thanks for your response. I have gotten the pan and it's beautiful. Thank you so much.
- Claudia, NY
Dec.09 My saucepan and rondeau just came back and look utterly stunning. Thank you for your beautiful and prompt work. We are moving next month but when we get settled, I look forward to sending several more of my copper pots in need of your retinning touch! Have a very happy new year.
- Cathy, GA
Oct. 09 The pan arrived today and it is beautiful. It has never looked so good even when it was brand new. Great job! I used it tonight for dinner and it performed exquisitely. The next pan will be on its way to you tomorrow, so you should see it by week's end. This pan is the one I use the most and is in worse condition than the first; I can't wait to see it anew. Thanks again.
- David, NH

Aug.09 From all the comments I read on your website, I expected my pots to come back nice and reflecting a job well done.... but never like this!
They look so gorgeous, I don't want to use them!!
I tell you, I'm stunned at the artistry with which you've transformed my sauce pans from common and dull pieces to museum treasures.
Have no doubt I'll tell everyone who needs retinning services to contact you, as the quality of your work is superlative. Thanks so much!

Apr.09 Got the pot. Very, very nice retinningwork! Thank you. The mark turned out to be Benham. I contacted <www.oldcopper.org> as you suggested and got the answer. They asked me about my re-tinning vendor and I enthusiastically recommended you by name and sent them the link to your website.
I'm looking to send some others to you.
- Jeff, VA

Feb.09 I sent you a stock pot with lid on 1/26. Have you finished it yet? When it gets back, if it looks like the last one you fixed, my pride and joy will be maxed!
- Art, SC
Feb.09 The stock pot arrived today in perfect condition. Wow – it looks even better than it did when we bought it! I will tell the stores near me that sell copper pots about you. None of them seemed to know anything about retinning, even though they sell tin lined pans.
- June, CA
Jan.09 Just got my pots back......all I can say is incredible. What a beautiful job you did on these old beauties. I am so happy. I am passing your name to my copper friends as well. I will also be sending the next batch in a week or so.

- David, MA
Sep.08 I was thrilled by the work you did on the copper pans we sent down. I bought them as a ham at copper fair in Paris, sixty years ago. But they never in the time since looked so dazzling!
- Arthur, NYC
Sep.08 ...are you sure that you sent me the correct pot....this can't possibly be the pot and top that I sent you....what a difference....you are truly miracle workers...
- Donna, VA

- Richard, FL
Sep.08 Thank you, for your beautiful work on my little saucepan. I've had it for 14 years and it gets used almost daily. I love my little pan, and I love the beautiful tinning craftsmanship inside. It looks better than new!
- Pat, CA
Jul.08 The pots arrived safely and look terrific! Thanks a bunch!
- Pam, VA
Jul.08 You did a fabulous job with my two bent pots. Domestic harmony is restored. Thank you for the incredibly swift turn around.
- Susan, MA
Jul.08 Thanks, Jim, for your master craftsmanship. I have had pans retinned before and by far this is the best I have experienced.
Since I picked up my big saute and two gratin pans last week, I have not allowed anyone to touch them or put them away. They sit on the kitchen counter glowing with pride and elegance. Tonight I broke in the big saute pan. Of course, the tinning is beautiful, and though it may be my imagination, the pan seemed to cook better. I have not even thought about using the Mutual roasting pan I bought from you. I want to enjoy it a bit more before I break it in.
- Tom, MA
Jul.08 My pots arrived yesterday and I'd like to thank you so much! They look great. I am very appreciative of your work. They really needed help.
- Sue, FL
Jun.08 Just calling to let you know we received our pots today and oh my god our mouths are still hanging open from amazement. You did such a spectacular job and we thank you so much. They look like brand new - just beautiful. I can't get over how different they look. We are very pleased and will be recommending you! Thanks again.
- Linda, NJ
May.08 We received the pots you re-tinned for us. FANTASTIC! Your retinning work is superbly done and the results were well worth the wait. The pots look so good that we're hesitant to use them. We know we'll have plenty of inquiries about who and where; we will gladly provide your name to all those who will certainly admire your work. Thank you for giving us an heirloom to pass along.
- Evelyn, NJ
May.08 Super, Super, Super. “New pans for Old” Thank you for a very professional service and for the great job you did restoring our two pieces of copperware. We look forward to sending you some more of our collection.
- Christopher, MI
May.08 So impressed was I by the work done on my paella pan that I've decided to trust you with my great grandmother's!! It was passed down through the family and now needs a face lift. Treat her gently!
- Vinnie, NY
May.08 Jim- We got our pots today. I just really wanted to thank you because you did an absolutely astounding job on them and we are overwhelming pleased with what you did. I wanted to let you know because so often you hear about the complaints but you don't hear from the happy people. I know how that is because I'm in in retail. Just wanted to let you know how pleased we were with everything. Thanks.
- Dan, MA
Apr.08 I just got my copper pot back and am blown away, you did such a fabulous job! Thanks for such a wonderful job and also for taking out the bend. More on the way.
- Irene, NH
Apr.08 I've been remiss in acknowledging, in a timely manner, receipt of the two casseroles and letting you know how delighted I am with their refurbishing. They look so beautiful that all the other copper in the house looks a bit sad... But I look forward to using them, now that the interiors are food safe.
- Simone, MA
Apr.08 Claude and I are so pleased with the work you did on our copper. Thank you for meeting us yesterday. I have 3 more "big rivet" pots for you...
- Cheri, CT
Apr.08 Unbelievable! Looks better than it did new. Thanks.
- Brian, NC
Mar.08 My wife says the pan is so handsome that she is reluctant to use it. Thank you!
- Judah, MA
Mar.08 I sent you a pot for re-tinning and it is just beautiful, thank you so much! We wondered if you recommend any particular brand or method for keeping the copper polished. It looks so great we want to keep it that way.
- Gail, NJ
Mar.08 Thanks for doing such a great job on the pots.
- Ted, MA
Feb.08 Thanks. Got them. Look spectacular.
It will take me some time before I can bear to cook in them!!!! Will send more....
- Matthew, NY
Feb.08 Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the fabulous job you did on my sauté pan. I keep looking at my others hoping to see some copper showing so I'll have an excuse to send them to you. Thanks.
- Hans, MA
Feb.08 That sure was fast...
- Matthew, NYC
Feb.08 The teapot arrived yesterday just as you said it would. I could hardly wait to give it to my husband and see his reaction this a.m. He couldn't believe it and was all smiles... You did such a wonderful job, it's beautiful. You truly have a gift, thanks for sharing it.
- Karen, CA
Feb.08 The pans arrived safely. They look fantastic - and are now ready for the next generation. Thank you.
- Marie, CA
Feb.08 The paella pan has arrived. It's beautiful! So glad I found you on the web...
- Maureen, CA
Jan.08 Received the re-tinned pans today, and they look great. Can you recommend how the interiors of the pans should be cleaned of burned on food? The original tin was worn off when I used a Scotch Brite pad.
- Steve, NY
(ed. note - simmering with water and dish detergent will loosen cooked-on food enough so that hard scrubbing is not necessary. Try it!)
Jan.08 Thank you for the great service, I will definitely reflect in the feedback...and I have more pans to do.
-Julie, CO
Jan.08 My pot just arrived today and I am very impressed with your work! I have alot more copper but none of it needs tinning right now. By the way, what to you use to polish the copper? Wow...
-Philip, MA
Nov. 07 How did you do this? What did you use? The pan that you tinned makes all my other pots pale in comparison! I'll be sending more soon. Thank you.
-Elsie, PA
Oct.07 Just got my pot back in the mail and it looks great. Thank you for your good and timely work! I'll be passing your name along, and sending you more as soon as I can take the time. Again, many thanks.
-Maura, NY
Sep.07 I just got my pot back from you. Beautiful work! I must have about 30 different pots that need your help. Expect another one next week.
- Tiffany, NJ
Sep. 07 We are very pleased with the sauce pan you just returned to us. Enclosed is a larger pan needing your good work. We have more, but one at a time.
- Roger, PA
Sep.07 It just arrived and it looks like new! You're a miracle worker. I am sending you a hammered copper stock pot today. The tin is not as evenly worn as it was on my last pot but has several questionable spots.
- Elizabeth, MA
Sep.07 Just received the pans..
Beautiful!!!!!!
Thanks,
- Joe, MO
Aug.07 Rec'd steamer copper pot yesterday...one word "BEAUTIFUL". Thank you! It now inspires me to cook again. Will ship my old tea kettle to you this week for appraisal. Thank you for all your beautiful work.
- Lynne, PA
Aug.07 I got my pan back yesterday - it was waiting for me at my office when I got there. It looks wonderful. A couple of people in my office had seen the pan before I sent it and they were all amazed at the difference.
I'll be sending you more work!
- Susan, CA
Jul.07 I received the pans you did already--they look spectacular! I am most impressed especially when I compare them to the ones someone else did. Thanks so much for the effort and your fine workmanship. I will happily tout your services if I hear of anyone else with re-tinning needs.
- Mary, MI
Jun.07 Your work on tinning and polishing look great! The only problem is that the pan doesn't sit flat on the stove so I appreciate you flattening the bottom. It is a pleasure doing business with your company because you have integrity and stand behind your workmanship.
- Julia, VA
Jun.07 Wow! That was fast!
- Arnold, IL
May.07 This is the best refurbishing job my pots have ever gotten!! I'm sending you nine more later this week. I'll send a picture of them all hanging in the kitchen - they look incredible! Thank you.
- Richard, VT
May. 07 Thank you ever so much - the pot looks great!!!! Can't believe they were able to do so much!!!

Nov.06 Got the pot - you did a great job and got it here in time. You are my hero. I will be happy to send you your much deserved check. Thank you so very much.
- Linda, MS
Aug.06 Your two week return policy is impressive. Everyone else was telling me two to three months so I could hardly believe it when my pans arrived today. They look great!
- Joyce, CA
Jul.06 Received the first 2 pots. You did a fabulous job. I have already used them. Please let me know where you are on the other four. Thank you.
- Kathleen, CO
