A unique historical burlap grain sack that had been buried in a barn attic for almost 100 years was brought back to life for a unique presentation in a shadow box. In addition, we are thrilled to have Peggy and her team scheduled to preserve historic hand written notes on plaster walls in the same barn. The farm building has been recently designated as a historic structure on the Kansas registry and national registry.

Highly recommend this phenomenal business! Professional yet compassionate when dealing with works of art that not only have monetary value but most importantly sentimental value. Her knowledge and skill are definitely showcased with the restoration work they did to a damaged in moving sculpture I took to them. So happy I found them and will now be returning for a long overdue oil painting cleaning that up until now would not be trusted to anyone. I know they will get the job done perfectly ! You can not get better done anywhere else.

Peggy repaired and restored our painting quickly and professionally. She talked us through the entire process and charged a very reasonable fee. We will certainly contact her again for more any future restoration work!

Our church had religious paintings (Stations of the Cross) that are ninety years old. Several had peeling paint. After consultation with Van Witt Fine Art we accepted a bid to have them all restored. The project came back two weeks ahead of the predicted time. We had high expectations but were over whelmed with the final results. The colors came back much more brilliant than anyone ever dreamed of. I would recommend Peggy Van Witt and her crew for those looking for professional restorations of any paintings.

Van Witt did an incredible job restoring several pieces of art for our client. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a piece restored!!

I purchased a Wilbur Niewald painting that had a large crease in the canvas/paint. I brought to Peggy who assessed the situation and confidently reassured me she could “fix” the problem. Wow, you can’t tell there was a crease ever there. They also “restretched” the canvas and reframed..it looks amazing and I am thrilled- Thank You!! I highly recommend.

Peggy and her team restored our church’s Stations of the Cross. They addressed chipped/cracking paint and restored them to their original beauty. Many thanks!

Peggy restored two oil paintings of special significance to our family to their original beauty. We are thrilled with the results and impressed with the quality of the work done, as well as the quick turn around. The price was as bid and Peggy communicated before and after each step. We will not hesitate to bring other artworks to Van Witt for conservation and highly recommend the business to others.

UNBELIEVABLE! I discouraged my dad from having paintings from my grandparents cleaned. I am so glad he didn’t listen to me. I had no idea the treasures I almost gave up on. Thank you, thank you, thank you Peggy from Bob Lawrie and his grateful daughter. This picture doesn’t do it justice and I thought the photo was black and white to start. The other paintings are beautiful too but this is my favorite. The colors are amazing!

I recently needed to repair a marble vase which was broken during a move from California to Kansas City. I was lucky to have found Van Witt Fine Art Conservation in Kansas City to restore my vase. The Van Witt team was able to restore it to almost new, even filling the missing pieces with their own materials. The natural cracks resulting from the restoration are seamless and the vase was restored to its original natural beauty. I highly recommend Van Witt Fine Art Conservation for any restoration job you may need for your valuable art pieces.

Our firm (Winston Art Group) engaged Peggy and her team to restore some iconic American paintings in a collection we are managing. Peggy responded very quickly to all calls and emails, and did an excellent job stabilizing the work. We highly recommend her firm.

I received great customer service! The quality of work was wonderful (they cleaned and repaired a painting damaged in moving). They reframed a painting, and I loved the gallery effect they gave it. I will use them again for future endeavors.

Restored a water color painting, which was both water damaged and dirty. Work was done in a timely manner and the price was reasonable. Highly recommend.

Van Witt Fine Art has worked on a number of objects for me and I couldn't be happier! I have several different antique art pieces (paintings and prints) in my personal collection which were in need of repair and I was connected to Peggy through a search of the American Institute for Conservation's expert directory. We arranged an appointment for her to review the objects with me where she evaluated the construction and condition of each piece and generated a treatment proposal. She was extremely attentive to understanding the object and understanding my goal. She and her team kept in close contact with me during the process and even shared an update photo to keep me informed. When I picked up my art, I was absolutely stunned by the transformation! They far and away exceeded my expectations. After that experience, I have brought a number of pieces to them to be conserved and every time I walk away impressed. Peggy and her team brilliantly intertwine the science of caring for aging materials with an artistic eye to how they should appear. Overall, they are professional, timely, courteous, and true joy to work with. I would recommend Van Witt to anyone with art which needs repaired, conserved, or restored.

Peggy and her team have restored two or our paintings. Their transformation from dark and colorless to vibrant and lively was stunning. Peggy's quite enthusiasm for her vocation and concern for her customers' art were apparent when she inspected our paintings and clearly explained the restoration process. Van Witt Fine Art Conservation is a 5-star-plus asset to the Kansas City metro area.
