Photo Repairs: Enhance Those Special Moments Digitally
With the improvements in technology in recent years, having photo repairs done on your old damaged photos can be a quick and inexpensive process, and one that you should seriously consider. Photos that at one time may have been considered lost causes can now not only be repaired, they can be altered to something much more memorable than the original photograph was.
How much do photo repairs cost? How long will the repairs take? The answer to that really depends on the extent of the damage to your photographs. Photos that have minimal damage to them, or that don't require extensive restoration may be back to you within one day. If the photo needs a lot of detailed repair, the procedure will take quite a bit longer.
Most reputable photo repair services will give you a customized price quote based on the restoration that is needed for your photo. You probably will not be able to get an accurate price until the repair service knows what all will need to be done for your photograph.
As long as the photo specialist has enough of the image available to do the necessary repairs and restorations they should be able to restore your photos even if they are very badly damaged. Most specialists have the software and equipment that will allow them to zoom extremely close to make very detailed changes to the digital image.
One word of advice: don't limit yourself when you start to look at photos that need to be repaired. This is a great time to consider what digital enhancements you would like to have done to your photos. There are a great deal of procedures that you could get done, so be sure to look at what is available with your photo restoration specialist.
One popular procedure is to have portions from more than one photograph combined into a single image. This could be accomplished by taking the images of two people and have them put together so the two people appear to have sat for the photo as a couple, or it could mean having several images combined to create a collage.
With either of these procedures, you could then add a decorative background to create a new mood for the photo. A forest background, the mountains, or even a sunny beach are popular choices.
With the technology to do complete photo repairs, there really is no reason to continue to put up with creased and torn photographs. Consult a photo repair specialist to see what services are available and how quick and inexpensive your repairs will be.

What kind of tradesman do I need?
I live in Sydney Australia in a timber house that I think was built in the 1950s.
At some stage, a previous owner has removed one of the windows to install an airconditioner - one of those old, noisy ones. The airconditioner has subsequently been removed (not by us) and the window space boarded up with a piece of masonite.
I want to remove the masonite and reinstate the window but I don't know what sort of tradesman I need to help.
The window is one of those that opens out from the bottom (I think it's called an awning window) and is one of a bank of three vertical windows. Each window is about 40cm wide and about 30cm high. The whole window (not just the piece of glass) has gone and a piece of timber has been placed between the space where the missing window was and the window above. Hope that makes sense.
I've looked at demolition yards but can't find a matching window so I need someone to build me a new one.
So, do I need a carpenter, a handyman or someone else?
All advice gratefully received!

My mom is thinking about renting her house?
My mom just got married and but she moved in with her husband 7 months ago. She listed her house for sale when she moved out, but she hasn't gotten many offers and the ones she has gotten haven't been enough.
We wanted to use the money from the house to help payback my student loans, and her retirement. But, it's not "moving". And she's still making monthly payments on it. Since my loans also need paid back this is too much money going out for my family.
I know that is why she wants to rent it out. But, we are both afraid it will cost more than it's worth to make "rentable". It's a cheap 15 year old double wide. Also, she moved in with her husband because stuff kept breaking. Like the shower, or the airconditioner. She ends having to repair the a/c every year.
Also, she lives in the middle of nowhere. How do I even go about find out about the market there or how much the place is worth as an asking price?
