Frame Repair & Reglaze
If you've had a disaster at home and your artwork has suffered, help is at hand at Richmond Picture Framers.
Repairing Picture Frames
We can repair some frames depending on the extent of the damage, on the age of the frame and on the quality of the wood. Bring in your picture for us to assess and we can go through your options.
Inadequate hanging devices are often to blame for pictures falling from the wall. Let us advise you on the best way to hang artwork or request our specialist picture hanging service: available to customers in both Nelson and Richmond.
Repairing Broken Glass
The good news is that ordinary picture glass is not expensive and before you know it your artwork will look better than ever. Glass that filters out UV rays is a bit more pricey but important to use on art that is susceptible to fading.
Freshening up artwork
Art that has been framed for many years can look dated - look out for the familiar suspects of blue, green or burgundy mats. We can breathe fresh life into your favourite pictures so pay us a visit.
And for our Christchurch customers...
We've been helping some Christchurch people rescue framed artworks from the effects of liquefaction. Unfortunately, when it comes to paper, water damage is pretty much irreparable. But there are steps we can take to make a difference. For example, mats can be replaced and borders made larger to disguise damage to artwork.
If you are wondering if your artwork can be saved do call in and see us at Richmond Picture Framers. We are happy to talk through your options and send quotes to insurance companies.
