Awards, recognitions and professionals that you can trust.

Relieve the anxiety of wondering  if you’re going to get the important preservation/restoration work done “the right way.” If you are worried about whether you are about to choose the right team of professionals to help you preserve and restore a cherished family heirloom or a financially valuable work of art or if you have a public art project in mind,  you’ll be checking on referrals.

Especially if you are putting out an RFQ for a firm that will be a good team member on a contract, you will want to know if your professional art conservation services can meet the demands of logistics and paperwork in addition to having the talents and quality to do the job that will make your department look good.

In the interest of providing different kinds of testimonials, I thought that you might find it interesting if I point out some of the awards and recognitions our team has received. When people visit our lab, they’re always intrigued with the “Wall of Appreciation” that we have covered with said framed testimonial awards, etc.
