Examinations


Every work of Art is different and requires individual consideration.

For over 40 years the Studio has developed considerable experience cleaning and treating paintings on canvas and panel and decorative fixed painted wood structures.

Initial Examinations are Free 

Where necessary, microscopic, x-ray, infra-red and chemical analysis are used to support examination prior to commencement of any Conservation or Restoration work.

Written and photographic records are prepared and kept throughout each stage of treatment.

With free, no obligation examination, assessment and estimate, whether at the Studio or on site.

All work is assessed, recorded and carried out to Museum Standards using high quality reversible and removable materials and up to date techniques. Professional Practice and treatments follow the Code of Ethics and Rules of Practice as promoted by ECCO (European Confederation of Conservators-Restorers’ Organisations) and as recognised by ICON (Institute of Conservation).
