Cleaning, restoration and preservation of your pictures and. paintings.
At Picture Perfect, we can give you expert advice and carry out both picture cleaning and restoration of your treasured works of art. For easel paintings this can involve a range of processes including patching holes, cleaning, re painting and re-lining of canvasses.
For works on paper, we can flush out harmful acids, clean prints and paintings that have become dirty, discoloured or foxed over time, and even rework watercolour paintings to replace lost details.
Our spacious and well-equipped studio specialise in conserving and preserving works of art on paper and board - paintings, drawings, photographs, prints, pastels, paper-based sculptures and installations.
With advanced facilities and in-depth knowledge of both traditional and contemporary conservation techniques, our conservation department offer a uniquely valuable service. Much of this careful, painstaking work is performed in-house whilst other, more sensitive work is sent to external conservation specialists who are an extension of our team.
Preventing damage to your precious artwork can sometimes be as simple as making a few simple changes to presentation and storage. For instance, we can replace acidic mount boards with acid-free cotton rag and buffered boards, which can remove the need for any further conservation treatments in the future.
