Painting and Art Restoration
We offer a comprehensive fine art restoration and conservation service to suit a wide range of needs, from basic painting cleaning to extensive repairs. Just as each artwork is unique, each restoration is a tailored, precise process. Our experienced staff are able to evaluate the extent of the damage and recommend the necessary course of action to ensure the artwork is restored to its previous condition.
With over 40 years of experience, the gallery’s restorer has undertaken work for private and commercial clients, city and county councils, churches, museums, galleries, charitable trusts and other national institutions.
