Repair torn or damaged photos

Physical damage is the most visible problem and the one that fixes best. Album scratches, the line of a fold, a torn corner or the ring damp leaves behind are rebuilt from what surrounds them, which is almost always enough.

  • Scratches, creases and tears filled in from the surrounding content
  • Damp stains, mould and dust removed
  • Black and white stays black and white

A missing piece across a face cannot be rebuilt faithfully. In those cases we say so and do not charge.

JPG, PNG or WEBP up to 20 MB. The better the light, the better the result.

The first two are free. You only pay if the result convinces you.

Three steps and it is done

  1. 01

    Upload the photo

    A scan from the album works, and so does a phone picture of the print. If you can read it, we can work with it.

  2. 02

    Choose what you want

    Repair the damage, add colour, or both. You can also enlarge it if you plan to print it big.

  3. 03

    Look and decide

    Compare before and after with your finger. If it convinces you, unlock the clean file and download it.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work if the photo is badly damaged?

Usually yes. Scratches, creases, damp stains, torn pieces and fading come back well. What cannot be rebuilt is a face that is no longer visible in the original: if the face is gone, anything produced would be invented, and we do not do that. Try it free and see before paying.

Can I just photograph the print with my phone?

Yes, that is what most people do. Put it on a table, window light, no shadow across it, and shoot straight down. No scanner needed.

Are the colours the real ones?

No, and it is worth saying plainly. The colour we apply is the most plausible for the period, the light and the clothing. Nobody can know whether that jacket was blue or green. If you know, write to us and we adjust it.

What happens to my photos?

They sit in private storage, are never published, never sold and never used to train any model. They are deleted automatically after 30 days, and you can delete them yourself sooner from your photos.

Do I need a subscription?

No. You buy a credit pack, spend it whenever you like, and there is no recurring charge. There is nothing to cancel.
