What we do
Services
Four benches, one building, and a written record of everything that happens to your material while it is with us.
How we work
All work is quoted against the sector Benchmark before any treatment begins. Clients are sent a written Estimate within ten working days. Each item receives a unique Numbering at intake. We then complete a full Condition survey, including a note on Handling restrictions. Any question arising is logged as an Enquiry and answered in writing. Treatments are recorded in the studio Ledger on the day they occur. Nothing is returned without a final Examination, a documented Verification pass, an acid-free Envelope, and our house Notation on the wrapper.
