We were recommended to Cedar Doctor NZ by a neighbour who had had the cedar on their house treated and we were impressed with it. Our cedar had badly deteriorated over time and the Cedar Doctor tradesmen did a wonderful job! They had a real problem with the weather but kept us well informed as to when they could come. They were very pleasant, experienced, knowledgeable and cheerful men who worked extremely hard when weather permitted and we are absolutely delighted with the result. We highly recommend the Cedar Doctors.

I have been very impressed with the timeliness, great communication and professionalism of every staff member that I have been in contact with at Cedar Doctor. Martin and his team has been a pleasure to work with, and they have made the whole process easy for us. We are very pleased with the work and our cedar house looks great now! Definitely added a new lease to the house.

We are repeat customers over many years and highly recommend John, Martin and the team. They are a pleasure to have on site, communicate well (e.g. when bad weather disrupts plans) and do a superb job on our cedar timber. They take great care to cover our pool when working alongside it and what's more they leave all our windows looking spotless when the job is complete. Very happy to give them 5 stars!

Cedar Doctors were absolutely fantastic. They were able to accommodate our tight timeframes, even with the poor weather conditions. Our house looks amazing and the work Cedar Doctors did was instrumental in the successful sale of our house.

We are extremely pleased with the job Cedar Doctor has just completed on our house, which had been neglected for quite some time! I was very impressed that John took the time to visit our Waiheke site beforehand. It is now looking revived and importantly well protected. John and the team are very friendly, extremely efficient, turned up when they said they would, and cleaned up after. We had to complete some building work before having the house cleaned and oiled and they were flexible and patient with shifting dates. I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar Doctor.

We saw the excellent job they did for our neighbours and decided to get a quote. Quote was competitive, they were fast and cleaned up afterwards and the new oil job looks fantastic. highly recommend Cedar Doctor.

This is the fourth time I have had the Cedar Doctor oil my house. They are hard-working and totally honest. If you get a quote it doesn't change. They are on time and leave the house and householder feeling better off with making this decision to maintain the cedar wood so that cladding doesn't have to occur due to cedar wood being dry and brittle. John and Martin are family friendly, professional, and experts in the art of restoring and maintaining cedar houses. You can trust them! I have already booked John in for another re-coat in three years time. Five stars is definitely deserved.

Amazing service, I sent photos of my manky looking front door that I couldn't get any painter to touch - it wasn't cedar but that didn't matter (turned out to be Rimu) they said they could refurbish it. They managed to fit me in before Xmas at a really busy time of the year which was amazing. They scraped it right back to the bare wood and once they had it looking pretty good, they then applied Dryden wood stain. I was a bit worried about how it would turn out as it had quite a lot of weathering after 25 years, despite being under a covered carport. I didn't need to worry at all, the door has come up better than new and we are really really pleased with the result. Totally recommend Cedar Doctors.

Cedar Doctor did a good job rejuvenating our 25 year old cedar double garage door. Have since had them return (after 12 months) and carry out a reoiling in the interests of continuing maintenance - well worth it to get the maintenance carried out on time and hassle free - very professional crew and good guys to deal with.

This is the third time we've used Cedar Doctor because they have a cure for the problem, not just a remedy. We appreciate their efficiency and pleasant attitude and their care of our property (they left it spotless). We would recommend them to anyone at any time.

So happy! We had a number of differing views on recoating our aged cedar home but after coming across Cedar Doctor we now have peace of mind! Martin was awesome to deal with and a complete authority on what we needed to do and how to go about it. If we were based in Auckland I would have no hesitation in using the Cedar Doctor team. Great service! Thanks!

I just had the second phase of restoration work done on my lovely cedar house and am absolutely blown away by the result. My house looks young again. The Cedar Doctor were skilled and efficient with their work and despite the house being draped in scaffolding it didn't feel intrusive. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing work done on their cedar house and would be happy to show the results on mine. Thank you.

The cedar on my house was very weathered and hadn’t been stained for years. I contacted Cedar Doctor to give me a quote to clean it for me. They responded immediately and came out and gave me a very reasonable price to chemically clean it. As I needed it cleaned at a certain time due to building work I was having done, they obliged and fitted in with my time constraints. The two men who came were extremely polite, well mannered and very professional. The cedar was very evenly cleaned and came up looking amazing. I highly recommend Cedar Doctor for any work needing done on your Cedar including staining.

I recently had a considerable amount of wood oiled on my house by the Cedar Doctor. There are barge boards, feature ceilings on balconies as well as garage and front door feature wood aspects to my house. It had been a number of years since last being oiled and the wood had a lot of sun damage. I am very pleased with the end result. It was a pleasure to deal with Martin, who was always respectful and quick to reply, even when it seemed E-Mails weren’t getting through somehow! The house is architecturally challenging with a very steep roof that required a lot of scaffolding. They organised this well and showed a very high skill level to achieve the great final result. 👍👍

Job well done. When they said the house would come up as good as new, we thought it was only sales talk. But to our suprise it did. We are very pleased with the job. Cedar Doctors only did the cleaning and prep work the house was transformed in 1 day. We have oiled it 2 weeks later with Dryden wood oil colour Driftwood.

Martin and the team from Cedar Doctors did a fantastic job on my house’s cedar restoration. I don’t think it has look this good since I bought it 15 years ago, and other companies have cleaned and oiled it in that time! They provided excellent service from beginning to end, great communication and recommendations. My next door neighbour has already been over to ask me who did the work so he can hire them for his house!

My experience dealing with Martin was fantastic. He was extremely patient and polite from the time I started communicating with him earlier this year. No question was too difficult to answer, and he understood that this was a big transaction for me so genuinely took the time to answer all my questions, occasionally more than once. Martin was also very knowledgeable about the different products and processes, and I felt confident he knew what he was talking about. The outcome itself is outstanding. The property looks great, and completed in a reasonable timeframe. I would highly recommend Martin and team to anyone wanting advice or work on their cedar property. Thank you Martin, I really appreciate how easy the whole process has been.

Fantastic service from Martin and the team at Cedar Doctors. We were apprehensive about selecting the right company to assess and rejuvenate our precious cedar weatherboards. Martin's site-visit and subsequent knowledge and advice instantly put our minds at ease. Cedar Doctor's flexibility around scheduling meant work could begin while roofers were also onsite .. minimising our scaffolding costs. Hans and his crew were careful, considerate and meticulous in their preparation and application of our chosen product. Our house now looks fabulous ..!! Cedar Doctors were easy to deal with throughout the entire process .. and we feel we got superb value for money given the result. Thank you guys. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Cedar Doctors. An easy 5 stars !

We used Cedar Doctor on our home. The original stain on the house that was applied before we purchased the property had weathered poorly. After Martin from Cedar Doctor assessed what was required and talked through the restoration and protection approach we accepted the quote. The work was completed to a high standard improving our home and we are very happy with the results and will use Cedar Doctor in the future and we will recommend to other people with cedar products on their homes.

We engaged Cedar Doctor to re-stain the cedar on our Taupo property and our spa pool. They also cleaned our decks. The team were very professional and did a great job for us. They left the site clean every day and had a high level of 'attention to detail'. We will absolutely use them again and I would recommend them to anyone looking for specialist cedar team who do a great job with care and attention.

We ware absolutely pleased with the level of workmanship and communications from the Cedar Doctor team for the washing and re-oiling job of the cedar cladding of house. They kept us well informed form quotation up to final delivery, did proper follow up with the scaffolding company (our house is build on a steep slope) and started and completed the project as agreed. The result is absolutely stunning! We definitely can recommend the Cedar Doctor team!

After a long search for a cedar work company, we found Cedar Doctor NZ to refinish our tired 21-year-old garage door, gate, front doors and surrounding cedar woodwork. Their refinishing and staining work is immaculate. Cedar Shading is perfect. Despite Covid challenges, this company stuck to their scheduling and always lived up to our hopes and expectations

I cannot speak more highly of our experience of the team at Cedar Doctors. Martin, John, Hans and team completed significant works at our property on precious native timber and cedar in a manner that gave us the best result possible. They were very patient from the outset with trialing staining products so that we got the effect we were after and they were exacting with their surface preparation and finish. Through out the process they were fantastic at meeting all our information needs. The team were incredibly tidy and respectful of our home. Each of the team has discreet skills and are experts on working with wood beyond surface preparation and coating. They went the extra mile in tackling some difficult restoration. I also trusted their integrity in terms of costing and I have every confidence in recommending them. Thank you Cedar Doctors for giving our property a new lease of life!

This is my first experience of Cedar Dr but my third cleaning and oiling of my cedar house. I would definitely recommend Cedar Dr. I really appreciated the care taken by Cedar Dr's team from sales consultation through to completion of the job. Cleaning: Doors were sealed off to prevent any water entry, and care taken around windows etc. Completion: Sparkling clean windows on completion. The guys were considerate around the house and section. Will definitely use again.
