The picture on the left was presented to us with torn edges, creases and scratches. Its monochromic contrasts had also faded leaving the subjects pale and lifeless. Our restoration on the right involved removing all the defects and enhancing the subjects in relation to their background. Finally our clients instructed a sepia finish to characterise its era.




Do you have old pictures that are a pale reflection of their former glory? Have you accidentally torn or stained a favourite snap?
Before the advent of digital technology these scenarios would have meant your picture was probably lost forever. Not any more.
Today, we can safely say that there are few situations where we cannot help. Creases can be removed, along with rips, stains and other marks. Faded colours can be restored and monochromic contrasts enhanced. If we can't produce a satisfactory result you get your money back.
On the left are some examples of work we have done. If you would like a no-obligation appraisal of your picture, please send it along with your contact details and instructions to:
Optimart, 64 Palace Avenue, Paignton, Devon TQ3 3HF
Please make sure that you send any images by recorded delivery as we cannot be held responsible for any loss in transition. We shall do likewise when we return the picture which we know is precious to you.
Our usual turnaround on restorations is five working days.
