Institutional Services

Sustainable, context-based preservation for all materials and collections.

Dust can attract pests, support mold growth, and becomes acidic over time, causing damage to collections. Regular cleaning is essential for museums, libraries, archives, and private collectors alike. Using museum-quality materials and techniques, our team safely cares for exhibition galleries, storage spaces, businesses, and private residences.

Dusting & Gallery Maintenance

Outdoor sculptures face perpetual exposure to weather, pollution, and environmental elements that can accelerate deterioration. Our team provides specialized maintenance services to help preserve the appearance, integrity, and longevity of outdoor artworks. Using conservation-based techniques and appropriate materials, we safely clean, assess, and care for sculptures in public, private, and institutional collections.

Outdoor Sculpture Maintenance

Assessments are often the first step in planning, accreditation, grants, and big projects. Our assessors focus on your institution’s goals, abilities, and resources. We focus on context and help you define what “best practice” means for you.
