For more complex conservation treatments that cannot be carried out in-house, Preservation Solutions offers a fully equipped conservation studio. In 2007 we relocated to our present studio, constructed to our own specifications with a particular emphasis on security. The premises sits on private land, is fully alarmed with a monitored alarm system, and has reinforced doors and windows. We have been able to design the interior space around our needs, and it has proved more than capable of handling our largest contracts. The studio also contains facilities for picture mounting, and we have a close working relationship with an expert framer. This has proved invaluable as a support for the conservation treatments of framed works of art.
Our management experience also extends to all work carried out in the studio, and we pride ourselves on our ability to complete proposed treatment programmes on time and within budget. Both these factors are important considerations when working within the tight confines of externally funded projects. We collect items for conservation by car, and are fully insured for transporting all objects.

"Over the last 10 years, our paper conservation projects have ranged in size from £30 to £30,000.
We have found that nothing is too small to matter, or too large to cope with."
