Estimates
To receive an estimate by email for restoring your mirror or picture frame etc-
1. Send a photo (jpeg preferred) of the whole frame and some close up photos of the damaged area.
2. Let me know the height and width of the frame and whether you have any missing or broken-off pieces.
However, if your frame has been painted over I will need to examine the frame in the workshop, after removing the paint I will be able to assess how much gold is left and what the extent of the damage is. I will then be able to provide a more accurate estimate.
Resilvering
I'm sorry but I don't restore the silvering on the mirror itself. For re-silvering try www.duttonglassandmirrors.co.uk in Birmingham, www.rankinsglass.co.uk in London or www.antiquedmirror.com in Bath.
