Many books are worth a lot of money or they may have been in families for generations and it is important that they are cared for when being worked on. The professionals that are operating will have spent many years learning their craft before they get qualified.

Before you search for a specialist there are some things to be carefully considered. Getting the work done may be expensive due to the materials needed and the skills required to complete the project.

When you need to send your books away to get them restored you should ensure that you use an established courier firm. It is also important to ensure that your item is fully insured against loss or damage. In some cases your chosen restorer may offer to arrange collection and delivery services which may be a more convenient option.

The prices charged by restorers for their services are dictated by the amount of work involved and the materials used to get the job done. When you have settled the bill you will need to keep receipts for reference. In some cases the work will be guaranteed and if you need to claim you will need your original receipt.
