The Problem

The Problem: Vague Contracts & Shifting Fees

Standard antique restoration service agreements are often filled with legal jargon and open-ended clauses that can lead to unexpected costs and disputes. You're left unsure of what you're truly paying for and what protections you have for your valuable piece.

  • Appraisal 'fees' that mysteriously balloon after work begins
  • Vague 'conservation treatment' descriptions with no cost caps
  • Liability waivers that leave you with no recourse for damage or loss
  • Arbitration clauses that strip your right to a fair dispute resolution

"The clause on 'unforeseen structural issues' was a ticking time bomb. This review saved me from a $5,000 surprise charge on a 19th-century secretary."

"Finally, someone explains the 'conservation treatment' fees in a way I understand. I now insist on a fixed-fee addendum for every piece."

Marcus T. · Private Collector
