Our aim is to undertake all restoration work using original materials and techniques contemporary to their period of manufacture so we can guarantee a perfect restoration of your valuable antique keepsakes whilst keeping in mind the need to carry out renovation work so that the repair is not noticable.
By selecting us you can be assured of the best possible service and attention for your restoration project which will be treated in a wholly sympathetic and informed manner. Full attention is paid to the importance of conservation and you will be advised as to how such work can be executed and how conservation blends with the restoration required to make your damaged item both usable and beautiful with no loss of integrity.
