Cleaning & Restoration

Morgan specializes in cleaning, repairing and full restoration of oil paintings to protect your valued treasure, and preserve it for a lifetime. His services include:

  • Removing the old, yellowed varnish, dirt and/or smoke film

  • Cleaning the oil paint

  • Repairing canvas tears, regardless of size

  • In-painting, which is repainting of chips, cracks and worn or thin oil paint to match original colors

  • Re-stretching the old canvas

  • Varnishing the restored canvas

All of the above services are offered for only 20¢ per square inch. Minimum charge per canvas cleaning is $20.00.

Should the canvas require relining, that is applying the old, brittle canvas to a new, sturdier canvas, there is an additional charge of $15.00 per square foot.

FREE estimates and local pick-up and delivery. When applicable, shipping charges paid by the client.

Local and national references are available upon request by emailing morganj@morganj.com .
