Fine Art Restoration Services
My Expertise
Every artwork that enters my studio carries a unique history, and I am dedicated to providing the precise care it requires. Because each project is distinct, comprehensive restoration costs are best determined through an in-person evaluation. Factors such as the medium, materials, and structural condition allow me to design a tailored conservation plan.
Surface cleanings for smaller works are typically straightforward, with timelines ranging from two to four weeks and services beginning at $550.
For more complex restoration—such as
Aged Varnish Removal: Carefully lifting degraded, discolored surface coatings to restore the artwork's original tonal balance.
Structural Tear Repair & Paint Loss Compensation: Meticulously mending torn canvas fibers and filling areas of missing pigment through time-intensive, precise conservation methods.
Linoxyn Film & Discoloration Reversal: Advanced chemical and mechanical cleaning to break down yellowed linoxyn films and reverse decades of surface discoloration.
Canvas Stabilization & Structural Support: Professional lining techniques including striplining for edge reinforcement, patching localized punctures, and adding structural backing to safeguard the substrate.
Structural Bridging: Executing precise bridging techniques to securely stabilize and rejoin fractured paint layers or split supports.
Water & Environmental Damage Treatment: Remediating complex staining, planar distortion, and structural weakness caused by moisture exposure and neglect
Fine art restoration is a precise, master-level craft that requires absolute patience without altering the painting for the purpose of looking brand new.
I invite you to schedule a consultation so we may evaluate your artwork together and discuss a clear scope of care, cost, and structural longevity.

Painting Restoration
No two art restorations are ever alike. This remarkable 300‑year‑old oil painting required an exceptionally delicate approach, with cleaning solutions carefully matched to each individual pigment. Working in very small sections, the process began with the lighter tones at the center and progressed outward, ensuring the original paint surface remained fully protected. A proper restoration unfolds over many weeks; it is a meticulous, methodical craft that cannot—and should not—be rushed.

Paper Restoration
Art restoration is not limitied to traditional oil or watercolor paintings - I can also handle delicate paper restoration projects such as this amazing 1850's map of the United States.
