    For those interested in using our services

    From experience we have learnt that a simple online price list is not suitable for the specialized commissioned work that we perform.

  • When taking on a new commission we like to ask our clients to describe the item concerned (ideally supplemented with photographs) and state details regarding the extent to which repair and/or restoration work should be undertaken.

  • We will then present our client with a provisional quotation and upon receipt of acceptance will ask that the item be forwarded to us.

  • Upon receipt of the item, we will then proceed to inspect the item concerned and provide additional comment if required. We will also provide you with a turnaround time and firm price for the commission.

    We strive to provide a high quality / cost consicious service. Our customers are our most valued asset and satisfying them is our primary aim. We love happy customers !!
