Alyson Lawrence of Siracusa Paintings beautifully repaired the corner of our painting. I am so pleased and impressed with her work. It is an oil on board impressionistic landscape and the most beloved work we own. It fell after its hanging wire broke and the corner was bashed, paint completely gone, wood visible for about a 3-inch area. When we picked up our painting I could not believe it, I would never have known anything had happened. I highly recommend her services.

The work done for me by Painting Restorations was far and above any expectations that I had. A very old family heirloom portrait was badly damaged by house removers. It was so bad in fact that at the time repair seemed impossible. However Alyson not only restored it to its original state but cleaned it with exemplary skill and at a price that was considerably less than her competitors.

An excellent job done on a fragile painting whose considerable value is almost entirely sentimental. It positively glows, and the tiny patches of retouching are extremely discreet. It hasn't looked this good for decades!

Alyson of Painting Restorations was extremely professional and quick to respond. I had shipped a painting internationally, which sustained significant damage to its final varnish during transit. The varnish removal and reapplication require a high level of meticulous work, which Alyson delivered with no qualms. The painting was returned in good time to a satisfied client. Additionally and of equal importance was the fact that Alyson was very reassuring and personable, which is always appreciated. I would strongly recommend trusting Alyson with your painting.

My husband has a portrait of his grandfather which isn't worth the paint it is made up of but which is one of his most prized possessions - if not his most prized possession. It is over 75 years old and was seriously showing its age but my husband was nervous about letting someone get near Grandad with any cleaning or retouching tools in case something went wrong. He shouldn't have worried for a second. Alyson did a marvelous job. We had no idea how clear or bright the painting could be, or how happy Grandad could look! And, she really understood and respected how important this was to us. Thank you so much, Alyson. Grandad is back where he belongs and looks fabulous (well, for him - he's still a strange looking man but my husband says that it is 'an excellent likeness'...).

I have collected a family painting which I am very pleased with. Alyson has managed to clean, repair damage and repaint the frame all of which have enhanced my love for the painting and made the picture really Come to life. I would highly recommend Alyson’s work. Very high quality.

This is a genuine review for work undertaken in December 2022 by Alyson Lawrence. We had a consultation with Alyson Lawrence of Painting Restorations in London about a late 1700’s oil painting. The paint surface was dirty with a discoloured varnish, showing evidence of wear throughout and some scattered surface scuff marks. There was also evidence of a more concentrated retouching to a repaired damage in the background. The original frame was in a poor condition, with flaking paint and damage throughout, including numerous holes and gaps in the corners. Alyson examined the painting, and with a quick smile said she was happy to take on the job to clean and restore it. The painting is now back home, and we are delighted with the results and the frame has been reinstated to its former glory. We would highly recommend Alyson Lawrence services. LOK

I am absolutely delighted with my painting - can’t believe how well it has been repaired and refreshed. Alyson was a pleasure to deal with and the cost was extremely reasonable - I can’t recommend more highly.

Alyson offered a very fair price and did an amazing job on my mother-in-laws oil painting that had a lot of sentimental value, as well as being a very beautiful and old oil painting. She was able to clean the painting and repair the two holes so that they are now completely invisible and the painting looks fantastic. I would highly recommend Alyson's work , her very fair pricing and great communication.

Alyson has done an incredible job in her repair of an important oil on canvass that was badly damaged. The artwork has been in the family for generations and sadly, the picture hook broke causing the piece to fall, hitting sharp objects as it fell to the floor. There were numerous holes and tears in the canvas and I really thought that was it for the painting. Alyson reassured me that repairs were possible and she painstakingly restored my work to its former glory. Incredible craftmanship and no sign at all that it has been repaired. With the cleaning and re-laquering that followed, it looks even better than before! Thank you Alyson.
