About

The workshop opened in 2014 and works with private collectors, local libraries and families with books worth keeping. Every job is done on site, and we tell you plainly when a book is better left alone.

Current lead time for new work is about five weeks. Repairs are usually faster.

Contact

To ask about a job, send a short description and a photo of the book. We reply within two working days.
