Scanning Methods:
The methods that you employ when scanning your photograph can influence the amount of work that has to be devoted to repairing your image and thereby affect the cost.
If we judge that your image can be scanned in a more appropriate manner then we may ask you to re-scan your material. We will advise you on the best methods to employ when scanning certain types of photographs in relation to particular types of damage. This will save you money and ensure that your restored photograph is returned to you as quickly as possible.
