Neil is very thorough and professional and did an amazing job restoring a 50 year old photo of my parents wedding to an amazing quality.
- Philip Williams – 8th July 2018
A great fast service on an old dark photo that was brought back to life with all the unimportant background items removed satisfactorily. Would not hesitate to use again.
- J L Davis – 6th July 2018
Great service, with plenty of attention to detail. Neil did a really good job on a creased and faded colour photograph. He makes the whole process efficient and timely and provides helpful advise every step of the way. I would recommend to anyone.
- Chris Littlewood – 1st July 2018
Pity you only have 5 stars, I would have gone to 10! Superb result, way beyond expectation. If you are thinking of using this service, stop pondering, DO IT.
- Steven SWailes – 30th June 2018
Only too pleased to review as Neil’s work IS truly Superior. Second time used him and have another to go to him which I forgot about. Seems he can work miracles no matter what your requirements. Not sure at first if could be done but managed to reduce picture on piece of A4 paper to postcard size and also brought it up to look like it had just been purchased from a shop, so went the extra mile to make sure it was perfect quality too. Fast, honest and clear communicator and worth every penny. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Keep up the good work Neil
- Helen Windsor – 30th June 2018
I sent Neil two photographs, both over 50 years old. They had been in frames and so all the colour had faded and they were just images in tones of grey. I included a marked up black and white scan of the images to give Neil some idea of colour. Within a day Neil had sent me digital proofs which were better than I could ever have expected. Within a week the prints were with me and I am delighted
- Anne Cleave – 20th June 2018
I have just had what I assumed was an irretrievable 1903 photograph brought back to glorious life by Neil Rhodes. The quality of his work is simply outstanding and a fascinating item of our family history has been restored to us despite a number of other supposed restorers assuring us it would not be possible. The work was carried out in an exceptionally professional and efficient manner and in an amazing short period of time. I will definitely use him again and would have no hesitation in recommending his services with out any hesitation or reservation.
- Ian Walker – 10th June 2018
I asked Image Restore to try and improve 3 very old, poor resolution photographs, and when they were completed and returned to me, I was very pleased with the results. The service was very quick, and the cost was more than reasonable.
- Gordon Fairley – 6th June 2018
The service was exceptionally fast, I had original photos returned and new prints within a week. The quality of the work is super. I am absolutely delighted. I would highly recommend Neil.
- Alexis Rickus- 26th May 2018
Image Restore did a brilliant job in restoring an old photograph of a childhood memory. We will be using the restored image to create a 20 x 16 canvas for fathers day. Excellent service and great result. Thank you.
- Robert Kemp – 30th May 2018
I sent Neil some very old and much mistreated photos hoping that he could restore some and enhance them all and provide me with both prints and digital images. Very promptly he sent a quote for what I had asked and though at the time I thought it quite expensive I asked that he go ahead. This he did with remarkable rapidity, I received by e-mail examples of the restored/enhanced images and was amazed at what Image-Restore had managed to achieve. I know have the digital images and prints and they are excellent. You gets what you pays for and I found that I received full value for the money.
- Gordon Pound – 17th May 2018
Neil was a pleasure to deal with and went the extra mile; the clarity of the picture was greatly enhanced. An excellent service with great results. I would definitely recommend. Jonathan.
- Jonathan Wood – 10th May 2018
We had one badly sun breached and cigarette scorched photo which came back looking brand new and pristine – my husband thought it was only fit for the bin when I sent it! The other was torn all round the edges, and it was beautifully centered and resized – better looking than it was when it was taken. A super fast service and very easy to do business with.
- Siobhan Austin – 7th May 2018
I first discovered Image-Restore 10 years ago — when researching my Family Tree. To date, Neil Rhodes has transformed pretty near 60 colour and b/w photographs; some of which were tintypes dating back to the 1850s. He always takes an interest in the story associated with each pic and then works fast. The latest is of my Granny’s kitchen in 1936. He removed a black patch (up the top) and filled-in kitchen cupboards behind in just a few hours. My drawers contain a further 10 years worth of photos that “need some work” and I know they will be in safe hands as his artistry matches his technical skills.
- Susan Chamberlin – 7th May 2018
Absolutely fantastic work done on my Da’s Home Guard photograph. Ring around his head was removed; image was sharpened; and printed 7×5 so it could be framed. As a business owner myself, I can’t emphasise enough the importance of client communication, and Neil’s was fantastic – I never waited more than one hour for a response. I’ll definitely be using this service again in the future.
- Charles Mossop – 5th May 2018
I requested two people be removed from an old army photo of my husband along with enlargement for a presentation. I received an excellent service from start to finish. I was kept fully informed every step of the way of progress and the final cost. I would highly recommend Image Restore.
- Janet Hope – 1st May 2018
A very old precious photo with 50% missing restored quickly without fuss highly delighted with the service. Cannot recommend highly enough.
- Jill Brown – 21st April 2018
I was so impressed with the service – very old photos of my mother’s that had converted themselves into ‘negatives’ meant I couldn’t tell what or who was on them. Neil asked me to send them by Special Delivery to him which I did and within one days turnaround he had re-imaged and resized them and sent them to me as proofs by email. A very quick, accurate and efficient service. I now have some lovely photos of days gone by. I would DEFINITELY recommend his services to you.
- Kath Coltman – 13th April 2018
I asked Image-Restore to revive an old 8 x 10 holiday photo. And provide me with 2 postcard sized copies. I have received them today and am delighted with the results.
- Michael Lee Avery – 04th April 2018
Sent a very old (WW2) photo rather dog-eared and creased. This was restored 100% to what I imagine was the original condition. I would have no hesitation in recommending Image Restore to anyone who has old/damaged photos that need restoring. Everything was dealt with in a very professional manner, quickly and efficiently and value for money.
- Jennifer Munchington – 27th March 2018
The picture I wanted to be restored was 38 years old. There was a very large water damaged area which I didn’t thing would be repairable, however, I sent a scan and a few hours later I received a message to say that it was repairable. I agreed to go ahead with the repair. From sending my scanned, damaged photo to receiving the proof copy, it was around 24 hours. Excellent service, I was kept fully informed as to what stage the process was at. I would definitely recommend and use this service myself again.
- Brian Clarke – 20th March 2018
My 46 year old black and white photograph of the interior of a railway signal box was in very poor condition: it had tea stains and surface damage.  I found Image-Restore by doing a web search and had a discussion about my picture over the phone with Neil Rhodes.  I sent the picture by Royal Mail and now have a restored copy of the original returned. Neil has done an amazing job: all signs of damage have been erased! I am in the process of writing an article for a magazine and will be using this picture as an illustration. At all times Image-Restoration have been in touch to advise me of what was realistically possible; receipt of the picture; progress with work and return posting. I have no hesitation in recommending this company for any photograph restoration work.
- Tony Sugden – 14th March 2018
Neil did an amazing job of restoring two very old, sun-faded photographs, keeping me informed at every stage. So happy with the results – colours and details restored beautifully. I would definitely use him again.
- Jane Keegan – 14th March 2018
Fast and efficient service. Amazing quality achieved from a damaged 100 year old photo. No hesitation in recommending this company.
