Photographic Renovation and Repair

Don't know what to get them? A beautifully-restored family photograph makes an unforgettable gift!

Prints can be any size up to around 20 X16 inches (subject to original image size and quality) and may be toned or subtly handcoloured, as you desire. We also offer a full mounting and framing service to ensure that your restored photographs look their absolute best.

Additional prints may be ordered at any time.

Here's a few examples of our work- click on the pictures below to see what we made of them. Bear in mind that our handprints are much superior to these web images!

Bring or post your pictures to our studio in Hoole, Chester for a free, no-strings quotation. There are always samples of our work available here for your inspection.

What does it cost?
Setting up, scanning of photograph and making digital file: one-off charge: £40.00 (a vital part of the process of producing your restored new photograph). This price includes a high quality digital copy of your restored image on a CD, from which you can obtain extra prints.

Handmade prints on premium papers, including subtle sepia toning, if required (measured in approx inches)...

We may advise that some smaller or less-clear images may be unsuitable for enlarging beyond certain sizes. Also please note that the final prints will sometimes be cropped to make the best of the original image and to allow for the inclusion of a white border and may not, therefore, be of exactly the specified paper size. Their proportions may mean, also, that finished prints will not look their best in standard frames. Not a problem, however, as we're happy to help with made-to-measure framing.

Additional charges for repair, renovation, colouring etc. are dependent upon the condition of your originals. We are happy to inspect your pictures, advise on what work is required and give a free, no-strings quotation at any time.

If you require work on several pictures, we will be pleased to offer you a discount on scanning and backup CD charges- the more pictures, the greater the saving!
