Oil painting restoration & Fine Art Conservation

Our experienced team of fine art conservators work efficiently to breathe new life into worn, torn, and discoloured oil paintings.

Based in Cheltenham, we offer a nationwide service, including collection/delivery, and aim to make the process as straightforward as possible. We’ve handled hundreds of remarkable paintings over the years, from 16th-century panels through to 20th-century canvases.

Revive Your Old Treasures

When you conserve an oil painting, you bring a new sense of vitality to a lost treasure while also protecting it from further degradation.

Oil Painting CONSERVATION

Each piece carries with it a set of unique characteristics, which can affect its condition and appearance over time. Our process begins with a series of tests, such as UV analysis, to gain further insight into the DNA of your painting.

From here, all conservation work, including varnish removal, repairs to torn canvases, consolidation of flaking paint, and retouching, is carried out with the utmost care and proficiency.

Frame Restoration

Antique gilt frames are particularly prone to losses due to their fragile nature. Our frame restorer uses efficient techniques, such as plaster repair, to revitalise a frame while also retaining its character
