What Exactly Do We Do?

We slow down the deterioration of your treasures – WAY down. Our processes will add decades and even centuries to their lives. They will be ready for carefree handling, display and transport. We consult with you, assess the condition of your items and prepare a bid for restoration and preservation for the items.

Here are some examples of our work. We repaired and preserved these items and encapsulated them in archival materials. Please click on any image to see a larger version.

Usually, the only people in your community who can do this work are museum and library staff. But they are often overworked and do not have time to help with your items. They also cannot use their supplies for it. That’s where we come in!

Make It Last applies modern professional methods of preservation. We use the same methods and supplies as museums, archives and libraries. Our staff has thousands of hours experience in paper care and preservation. Our lab is always ready with the latest resources in paper artifact care.

If you choose our affordable services, all work includes the following:
· Mold and/or dirt removal
· Tear repairs
· Removal of acids
· Proper storage solutions for long-term care (materials included)
· Instructions for future care and handling

All supplies are included in the price.
