Over time artwork collects layers of dust and grime, even if it hangs on a wall, behind glass, or in a display case. If your artwork look less than spectacular, having them professionally cleaned can revive and restore the pieces while also providing protection and longevity.

From pick-up to delivery, we employ industry best techniques throughout every step of the art recovery process. We not only restore art, we restore memories.

Our team of professionals understand the importance of careful and deliberate handling of damaged art pieces throughout the artwork cleaning and repair process. Our experienced restorers address issues such as discoloration, stains, rips, environmental rippling, and frame repair. We use careful handling and proprietary chemicals to clean dust, soot, and smoke from paintings, sculptures, photographs, and other objects. Our art cleaning services use environmentally friendly yet effective products to clean artwork of all kinds. Our experts take extreme care when handling any artwork repair. From torn canvas to a soot-stained piece of sports memorabilia, you can trust we will restore items safely and effectively. We have fine-tuned our artwork repair process to make it look like damage and vintage wear-and-tear never happened.

Some of the more common repairs and maintenance that we specialize in are tear mending, retouching, overpaint removal, varnish removal, and cleaning. Let us know about your artwork and we'll provide you with a full service quote of best practices for your particular piece.

Tear Mending

We employ a wide range of techniques and methods to restore torn or damaged works on canvas – from small nicks to significant rips and canvas distortions.

This may involve adhesives, thread-by-thread joining, or lining the entire canvas to provide durable support.

Retouching

Retouching, also known as in-painting, restores the visual integrity of an artwork that may present areas of loss or degradation. Paint is carefully matched to ensure a seamless regeneration of the original image, as the artist intended.

Over-paint Removal

Artwork can suffer from previous conservation attempts, in which the original paint has been covered with poorly matched over-paint. We carefully remove these layers to reveal the painting beneath as the artist intended.

Varnish Removal

Varnish can discolor over time and the integrity of the painting suffers, as its palette, tone and spacial dimensions are corrupted. Careful cleaning removes these layers, revealing the work’s original splendor.

Cleaning

Dirt, grime and other pollutants build up over time and can lead to permanent staining. Cleaning is a delicate process, carried out after thorough testing and examination.

Our digital repair and editing department team has extensive experience in the field. We use the most current editing technology to ensure that our experts can achieve the best results possible. Our team of artists rely on years of experience along with the tools available to repair some of the most damaged pieces. We strive to ensure all of our edits exceed our clients expectations.

To ensure that we exceed our clients expectations, our team will always send a digital proof to the client for approval. We will continue to work with a client until we've reached the desired expectations.

Some of our most popular edits include color manipulations and enhancements, background removal, removal of unwanted items or people, and adding people or objects into images. If a there’s an image you want enhanced our team will work with you to determine the best enhancements to make your image incredible.

Our digital department also has the knowledge and tools to produce high-quality giclée prints in many different sizes. We can print your artwork onto canvas, cotton rag art paper, photo paper, Dibond, acrylic, and metal.

Unlike many galleries we offer white-glove art brokerage service for both purchasers and sellers of fine art.

When a client comes to us looking to acquire a piece, we operate with discretion and work through our vast network within the art industry to broker your purchase.

If you are looking to sell a piece, we exercise the highest amount of discretion, representing the client without unnecessary disclosures.

We provide the discretion that auctions do not and with the decorous treatment that you expect and deserve. Please contact Mina @ mina@cfagallery.com.
