I couldn't be happier with my experience with Art Factors and Bob. I had two paintings that my…read morelate husband had done and had been stored in our basement for years. They were in rough shape with some mildew, water damage crinkles and tears but the paintings were beautiful and very special to me. Bob handled them with such respect and care and did an absolutely beautiful job cleaning them up the best he could and framing them for me.
