The Details Matter

CD tapes and recorded media.

With recorded CDs at a replacement cost of £10-15, they can become a significant part of contents damage claim. They are not only expensive, but often the owner has valued recordings
that are no longer available.

When restoring a CD we not only clean the disc but also the printed sleeve, which is an essential part of the whole product. We will replace the plastic case, a low cost item.

Object d'art and fragile ornaments.

Object d'art and fragile items are often of uncertain value to the owner. We make sure that we look at the replacement cost before we consider restoration work.

Following fires the quality of the finish can have a big impact on the outcome.

We also work with specialist partner, companies who can carry out complex repairs. Please call us for advice on this
number 01209 722522.

Painting and framed objects.

We make sure that we consider the replacement cost of framed objects before carrying out any work.

Oil paintings are fairly robust and the protection of the varnish layer can greatly assist restoration. Mostly fire residues can be removed with a gentle process, restoring the painting to its pre-incident condition, without removal of the varnish layer.

Glazed pictures sometimes need to be re-mounted. Specialist partner companies carry out some of this work.

Photographs.

Photographs are treasured items, an irreplaceable record of family life and important events.

For the insurer, the replacement cost is limited to the cost of the film and printing costs.

We are aware of this situation and ensure that costs are agreed before work is started.

To protect customer's interests, we offer a flexible service and can carry out restoration on key images if required, through a specialist partner company.
