The repair and restoration service provides two options for damaged images. Repair covers images with light or medium-damaged areas where the core details of the photograph remain intact. Restoration is about bringing a seriously damaged image back to its original state. Seriously faded, torn or damaged photographs can be repaired using this service to create a new version of the original. 

Negatives, Transparencies and Digital Images

Damaged digital files, negatives and slides can be repaired or restored to produce a new photograph, negative or slide. Details can still be recovered even from seriously damaged images.

Images larger than 12×10 can be difficult to scan due to the physical size of the print and the limited availability of large-size scanners. A more cost-effective solution can be to photograph the original image with a camera. This provides a good-quality copy of the original print image without the need for expensive scanning. Repair work can then commence on the digital copy.

All prints are made using professional quality Fuji Pro paper with a choice of lustre, pearl or glossy New prints can be made to the same size as the original (or larger if required) using Fuji Crystal Archive DPII Professional papers with a choice of lustre, pearl or glossy finishes. The Fuji paper offers the widest colour gamut, maximum density for deep blacks and excellent colour saturation.

Frequently Asked Questions

A number of frequently asked questions regarding the digital Photoshop services have been answered HERE

Peace of Mind

Photographs are often irreplaceable. For total peace of mind about keeping precious prints or negatives safe, scanning can be completed as you wait if required.

The original image is scanned to provide a digital copy that can be worked on in Photoshop. When it has been scanned the original plays no further part in the process. No work is carried out on the original image itself and it is not sent away to a lab.
