We offer comprehensive art preservation and conservation services for individuals, private clients, antique and art dealers, fine art galleries, picture framers, museums, historical societies, libraries, fire and flood recovery services, and serious art collectors. Many of our best clients retain us to treat a single painting or artwork that has personal and irreplaceable sentimental value and has been handed down through the family.

We specialize in the conservation of 19th and early 20th century oil paintings on canvas and on period piece, gilded frames. Occasionally, we are called upon to work on unusual polychrome (painted) objects. Our conservation staff is available for consultation and creating condition surveys and treatment proposals to assess the needs of your personal or institutional collection.

Appraisals establish fair market values, replacement costs, insurance estimates, estate estimates, or donation values. This can only be done by appraisers who are responsible members of certified appraising institutions. (Hint: Those who have a financial interests in your artworks are not objective appraisers. As members of the American Institute for Conservation, we do not provide appraisals. We can, however, do research for you and provide auction records to assist in understanding the current market.)
