Every repair begins with a thorough diagnostic consultation. This process allows us to assess the condition of your piece, identify all visible and underlying issues, and provide an accurate repair plan tailored to its structure and materials. **What’s Included in the Consultation:** - A detailed inspection of your item’s construction, materials, and hardware. - Identification of visible damage and potential structural concerns that may affect the repair. - A preliminary repair plan with estimated costs and timelines. - Recommendations for preventive reinforcement or upgrades (if needed). **Timeline Adjustments** During the repair process, it is possible that underlying issues or hidden structural weaknesses may be discovered after deconstructing the item. If this occurs: - We will contact you promptly with an updated repair plan and timeline. - Any additional work or adjustments to the cost will only proceed with your approval. This ensures that every piece we work on is restored with the care and integrity it deserves. **Consultation Fee** The Diagnostic Restoration Consultation fee is $350 Non-refundable **Booking & Cancellations** - Consultations are by appointment only. - Cancellations or rescheduling require 48 hours notice to avoid forfeiting the consultation fee.
