Repairing scratches, tears and creases

This is the most common type of damage to photos, mainly from handling over the years. Images get folded, torn and scratched. Our restoration service can digitally repair all those crease marks, tears and scratches.

Pricing depends on the amount of damage, how detailed the image is and also the size of the original or amount of enlargement. A crease over a simple section of sky is a breeze compared to a tear through several faces on a group photo.

One of our main techniques involves painting with photos whereby we sample the good parts of a picture to rebuild the lost or damaged areas. As you can see here we’ve used the wooden boards from the right side in making a new corner on the left.

I just wanted to send you a note to say a huge thank you for the wonderful restoration work you have done on my photos, particularly the two miniature photos which were so faded and cut up that I really thought they were beyond repair. These are precious photos that belong to my mother and their restored versions will bring her so much happiness when I give them to her for Mother’s Day. She will be truly amazed. So thank you for the care y…
