Hello everyone, and happy Tuesday! We hope you had a great weekend. Today, we're excited to share one of our recent restoration projects.

Our client brought in a cherished photograph that needed to be rescanned, reframed, and brought back to life—and we were happy to help. Swipe to see the before and after transformation.

Did you know we also restore artwork? This project involved rejoining the internal strainer, cleaning the glass, drilling pilot holes with new screws, and fitting a new wire.

If you or someone you know needs restoration work like this, feel free to reach out via message or email. We’d love to help.
