FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our clients are individuals with specific requests often needing services for their very unique items or treasures. Respectfully our pricing is normally tailored to our clients, their needs, and their unique artifacts. To begin a dialogue regarding the restoration process and their associated expenditures the very first thing we always need is information and photographs. Lots of information regarding the item, history, issues, & objectives. Several photos that will give us a visual understanding of the item, overview images as well as close ups demonstrating the issues to contend with. You are an individual with a unique artifact needing custom attention. Stock pricing would be asking you to fit into a preset which would be disrespectful of you and your items. We routinely find we are one of the if not the most affordable option for our clients and their needs.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
