A fire is a devastating event that is difficult for any family to deal with. Fires ruin homes and destroy valuable documents. Many believe there is no hope for their valuable pieces of art that suffered fire and smoke damage, but this is simply not true. Professional fire damage cleanup crews have the ability to perform antique art restoration procedures that can help damaged art look like new again.
Antique art restoration is a complex procedure. Typically, the more valued the piece of art is the more likely it is that the fire damage cleanup crew will have to send it to an art conservator. A professional art conservator can evaluate the piece and determine the best restoration method for it. Some pieces might require a simple cleaning from soot and smoke damage, while others may demand touch ups and more complex restoration services.
The main goal of an art conservator is to get the piece of art looking as good as possible. There are countless examples of paintings that looked destined for the junkyard being restored into pieces that are fit for a museum. It takes an expert hand that has the education and experience necessary to restore the work to its original form without being overly invasive and cheapening the piece.
With a combination of knowledge and patience, antique art that is rotting, flaking, and missing paint can be made to look like new again. Fire and water damage cleaning, repainting, restretching, and revarnishing are commonly used procedures in antique art restoration of badly damaged pieces. With this vast array of techniques, an art owner should not lose hope after a fire, because there is usually a good chance an art conservator can minimize the damage.
