Restorations:

Whether your artwork is worth millions or has only sentimental value, our restoration procedures and costs are based only on what is required for each piece, inherently related to its structure, condition, and your budget.  The costs for treatment never parallel the value of your artwork and are based on hourly labor charges or per square inch charges, dependent upon treatment.  Our labor charges include materials, documentation, and photography.  Unlike others, we do not charge extra for these materials and services!

Upon receipt of your artwork, each piece is catalogued, analyzed, and proposed for restoration or conservation. All artwork that enters the studio is photo-documented which accompanies a treatment plan that is mailed to you. Once approved, the artwork enters queue. After restoration, you receive all documentation including "during" (when applicable) and "post-treatment" photographs, and description of materials use.  We make shipping simple - follow our couriers link.
