Conservation and Restoration
read moreCaring for our heritage requires a multi-faceted approach, the main principles consist of conservation, restoration, repair and maintenance. Restoration - bringing an object or building back to a previously more acceptable condition or standard. Repair - making good a damaged aspect or component part of an object or building in order to return its functional purpose. Our master craftsmen have a diverse skillset and the ability to make full use of these basic principles ensuring sound judgement, ethical use of their skills and a clear understanding of how to blend all four elements to great effect.
