Restorations

Restoring paintings of the 17th / 18th Century to present times:

  • General cleaning, removal of old varnishes, and cleaning of surfaces.
  • Repainting of damaged surfaces after repairs to holes with either patching or relining of canvas.
  • Frame repairs and re-modelling of plaster work and gilding.
  • Cleaning of prints and watercolours, remounting and washlining to mounts.
