Painting Conservation Services
The studio treats all types of paint media on canvas and panel — from Old Masters to contemporary works. Every treatment begins with examination and a written proposal, every step is documented, and every material we use is chosen for stability and reversibility.
- The pages below describe each service in detail.
- Not sure which applies to your painting? Send us photographs and we will point you in the right direction.
- If a painting has just been damaged by water, fire, smoke, or mold, contact us or call 713-426-0191 — damage inquiries are prioritized.
