I needed to get my order quickly. The Team of "Restoration Online" did everything they could to help. Friendly communication, good quality goods. Thank you. I will contact them again and recommend them to everyone. Show reply
Restoration Online provided the best online customer service that I’ve experienced, even though ultimately I didn't even make a purchase! I contacted the company via their website to ask for some extra details on a particular product I was interested in buying. Within minutes, Samantha responded and told me that she had sent my inquiry directly to… Read more · 1
the manufacturers. She contacted me again within a day, not only with the manufacturer’s response, but also with several delivery/pickup/pricing options depending on the urgency of my need for the product. Ultimately, this item proved not to be suitable for my situation, so Samantha sent me links to several of their other products as options for me to consider. Unfortunately, none of these products were quite suitable for my specific situation either so, sadly, I wasn’t able to make any purchase. Nonetheless, Restoration Online will certainly be my first option when I am next looking for home renovation products. Thank you, Samantha, you could not have been more helpful! A quick glance at some of the other reviews of Restoration Online on Productreview.com.au shows that, whilst you’ll never please all of the people all of the time, excellent customer service very much seems to be the norm for this company, and that Samantha is not alone in delivering it for them.
Fantastic service & product, sales communicated some issues & meet all of my requirements & concerns without fuss. Really appreciated their effort to ensure I was not left hannging would highly recomend this company. Show reply

I love my taps they are perfect – I bought a set of floor mounted telephone taps from this company and they are exactly what I ordered and half the price of a retail shop. I phoned up as I was hesitant to order online and the staff were very helpful and I did everything over the phone,product arrived a couple weeks later. We installed them in our bathroom to go with our claw foot… Read more · 1

I received my vintage wall lights from Restoration Online and was very pleased. The lights themselves, the careful packing, the prompt delivery, and the emailed invoice & packing slip were all excellent. I would certainly order from this company again. Show reply
Honestly so happy I stumbled across this brand online. I was in the market for a door handle to the front of my unit and Restoration had so many options to suit the old building. The online customer support was amazing in helping me choose the perfect handle. Just received it and it is even more beautiful in real life - the quality is second-to-none. Shout out to Kristina and the team for picking up an error I had made in the order. Show reply
Recommend for range, value, and customer service – Excellent customer service from this online store with real, helpful people behind it. There was a query with one of my products, and I received emails and phone calls to confirm and process my order. The items arrived in a timely manner, and are just perfect! (Light switches for my federation house). They deserve their consistent high ratings. Show reply

Delivery, what Delivery – 50mm brass handles shouldn't take 11 months to be delivered. Still waiting for my towel rail. They also hide behind small print to justify poor performance. Restoration online shouldn't have items "on sale" when they can't deliver
Do not allow lower rated product reviews on their website – They do not allow low rated reviews on their website. Buyer beware of 4 or 5 sta item reviews as they do not post lower rated product reviews. This is better known as false advertising.
Hi Joe, Thank you for your feedback. I’m so… Read more
No return policy – Incredibly poor service if the product does not fit / is not as you expected. Order expensive door handles and they were the wrong fit for our doors. We returned them a few days after receiving them in the original condition. The company said they were scratched and would not be accepted for a return, however there is no way this is so as we… Read more
returned them immediately in perfect condition. They refused the refund (after confirming the refund and prompting us to send back the items while still wearing the cost of postage for return). Now are claiming we should pay for postage a third time or they will 1. not refund us and 2. not send the doors back so we can try to on sell. Crazy to think this kind of company can succeed under Australian Consumer Law and the trust we put in to online stores. Would recommend avoiding at all costs.

Highly recommend Restoration Online - great people to deal with! – AMAZING customer service from Samantha - so helpful with the initial order, helped to expedite the order to Brisbane to meet builder deadlines, and then helped out enormously when a couple of things didn't quite work out. She couldn't have been more supportive, communicative, prompt, efficient and understanding. Would not hesitate to recommend Restoration Online and Samantha in Particular. Show reply
Prompt and helpful – I had a very helpful chat with restoration online this morning. Even though they didn't have what I was looking for this time, they gave prompt helpful responses, and it was very efficient. I will be back for when I do need other products from their range in the future. Show reply

Excellent customer service – I recently purchased door hardware and hinges from Restoration Online and was impressed by their attention to detail and customer service. They notified me that I had purchased the items from two different ranges and asked whether that was intentional as it would be a different finish. They promptly updated my order and refunded the difference within 24 hours. I would highly recommend and would use again. Show reply

Great service – I had a similar experience to another review about an item on back order. Not long after placing an order for a couple of items for a fanlight. I was phoned to advise that one of the items was out of stock. I decided to wait for the back order and was kept up to date with the progress. The stock came in only a few days later and was shipped the… Read more · 1
next day. I'd already received the in-stock item as shipping/delivery were quick. Overall, I'm really happy with the service. We're restoring an old property and would buy from this company again.
Exceptional service – Product range is fantastic. The product I wanted was out of stock but I was informed immediately and given the option of selecting another product, getting a refund, or waiting until it was in stock. I chose to wait and was given regular updates until my product arrived. Wish all businesses were as helpful and efficient. Show reply
Amazing old school service! – I put together an extensive list of Victorian window and door hardware and sent it to Restoration Online, and 2 other suppliers. Rachael from Restoration Online was the only one to advise me that the door knobs I was ordering were not compatible with the mortice locks. Rachael then guided me through the process and advised which door knobs were… Read more · 1

Amazing customer service – The customer service was great! I had ordered an item and it was picked up by customer service when completing the order that to complete my job I needed 2 more of the same item. I was phoned and this was amended, paid over the phone and easily fixed. It's not very often this type of initiative is delivered and I really appreciated it. Well done! I would highly recommend.
