ANTIQUE BOTTLE REPAIR SERVICES
I have recently begun to repair antique bottles (about 18 mo.practice, and over 20 bottles). My philosophy is that an improvement in displayability is the objectve.
I have pleased several customers with the repair of some Baltimore porters and torpedos, as well as some successful repairs to my own collection.
I am accepting repairs on a fee basis, and am equipped to replace tops with a very credible process for this type of repair, as well as small llip repairs.
The time involved in a repair is quite extensive. It is at least a two stage process, but usually three to six stages, with a 24-36 hour cure per stage, with time spent checking the cure, changing positions, touch ups, etc.
As a web developer working from a home office, I can perform this labor of love at below minimum wage between coding sessions.
I will accept repairs of higher value bottles (replaced tops when provided, lip chips and base/body chip type repairs) for between $90 and $200.00, depending on many factors, including the extent of repair. Lesser bottles and easier repairs may be considered in the $50-60 range.
I would need a photo of the damage and some discussion of the repair, in order to prepare a quote, and set the agreed upon expectations.
My contact page is a good way to inquire about a repair, or you can email me directly at wil@mywebmkt.com with attached photos.
