Conservation Binding
Wherever possible it is our intention to preserve and retain as much of the original binding and its structure as possible.
Prior to starting any work we will discuss and agree with you the best approach and the work to be carried out. An estimate will be given of the costs involved. If during the work, it is determined that additional work may be required then we will agree this with you prior to carrying out this work.
If required we can also provide a photographic record of the binding both before and after the conservation has been carried out.
All materials used will be of Archival Quality and be in keeping with the original binding.
