Our process includes expert consultation, material selection, and meticulous assembly to deliver museum-quality results that preserve your artwork for generations.

Specialist framing solutions protect valuable artwork from environmental damage. We use acid-neutral materials and UV-protective glass to prevent deterioration. Our conservation-grade techniques meet museum standards, ensuring fragile pieces remain preserved while maintaining their aesthetic integrity through careful material selection and climate-controlled assembly.
Frame Repairs
We repair damaged frames with precision matching original construction methods. Our fixed-price system covers simple fixes while complex restoration involves careful reconstruction. Services include structural reinforcement, surface refinishing, and replacement of missing components using period-appropriate materials to restore frames to their former condition without compromising historical accuracy.

Each installation ensures proper weight distribution and alignment, providing both safety and aesthetic presentation for artwork in domestic and commercial settings.

Chris has framed several large, vintage movie posters for me and they are brilliant. The framing really brings out the colours and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for the great service
