Art collectors take painting repair in London and
across the globe extremely seriously with good
reason. If a treasured and valuable piece of art
is starting to show signs of age or wear and
tear, such as flaking or cracking paint, the need
for maintenance is urgent. It's just as vital
that collectors look beyond the surface of art,
as frames and canvases can experience just as
much damage. As experts painting repair in
London, based on New Bond Street, the Simon
Gillespie gallery will always be keen to
investigate this element of the maintenance
process. Assessing the canvas is a key component
of art restoration, as any rips, disturbances or
punctures no matter how small and insignificant
they may appear to the untrained eye can lead
to longer term damage. Damages cause instability,
and if these imperfections are not acted upon
early, major reconstructive work can be required
to salvage a work of art. An experienced expert
in painting repair, such as London's Simon
Gillespie Studio team, will undertake a thorough
investigation of your canvas and advise on the
next steps. Capture damages early enough, and the
maintenance process can be short, affordable, and
unintrusive. This does not mean that major
repairs are unavailable. If necessary, an expert
in painting repair will conduct a thorough,
thread-by-thread analysis of the canvas and
complete whatever tasks are necessary. Such an
outcome is preferable to avoid, however.

Potential damage to frames is just as vital.
Ensure the frame that holds the artwork firmly in
place, without rubbing against the canvas.
Mindful of any potential acidic damages too, or
elemental damages. While a substandard frame is
not the first thing an amateur art enthusiast
will notice, it remains something that needs to
be managed and monitored lest it create further
damage in the longer term.
