I am not the owner of high end oil paintings, but ones I can afford. I have one that is in dire need of restoring, flaking paint is bad, but the painting is beautiful, an such depth. I am also not rich. How much would an estimate of repairs cost?

Hi, I do the paper and photography restoration for Coffey and Thompson. We give free estimates for restoration. The price for individual restoration projects vary depending on the repairs needed. If the paint is coming off, keep all the pieces you can with the painting. Our expert painting restorer will need to see your work in person to determine what repairs you will need to preserve your art.

You will need to go in to get a quote. No reputable gallery and restorer will give you a quote via Google. I can say, they do beautiful work, and the only gallery in Charlotte we refer our customers framing needs to.
