Photo Restoration Services
Give Your Photos a New Lease of Life
Looking for photo restoration in Rhyl or North Wales? Got an old, damaged or faded photograph, need a background removed, or simply want your photo looking its best? Send your photo to Perham Prints and we'll take a look at what we can realistically restore or improve.
Send Your Photo Before You Commit
Not sure whether your photograph can realistically be restored? Send us the best copy you have first and we'll take a look before you decide to go ahead.
We'll let you know whether we think restoration is possible, what kind of improvement may be realistic, and whether the original image gives us enough detail to work with.
Every photograph is different. Letting us see the image first is the easiest way to find out what may be possible.

Before & After Photo Restoration
Old photographs can become faded, scratched and discoloured over time. Here's a simple example of the type of improvement photo restoration can make.
Old, Faded & Damaged
Over time photographs can lose contrast, fade, become scratched or pick up marks and discolouration.
Cleaner & Revived
Restoration can improve contrast, clarity and overall appearance while keeping the photograph looking natural and true to the original.
Old & Damaged Photo Restoration
Old photographs are often completely irreplaceable. Over the years they can become faded, scratched, torn, creased or marked.
At Perham Prints, we can digitally work on your photograph to repair and improve it while aiming to keep faces and important details looking as true to the original as possible.

Different photographs need different levels of work. These are some of the most common problems customers ask us to improve.
Faded Photos

Scratches & Marks
Reduce or remove suitable scratches, marks, spots and surface damage.

Background Cleanup
Remove suitable distractions, marks or unwanted objects from a background.
Black & White Photos
Clean up classic black-and-white photographs and ask us about colourisation where suitable.
How It Works
Every photo is different, so the easiest thing to do is simply let us see the image first.
Send Us Your Photo
Email or WhatsApp us the best quality version you have and tell us what you'd like restored, removed or changed.
We'll Take a Look
We'll inspect the image and see what can realistically be done. Some photographs need much more work than others.
We Restore Your Photo
Once agreed, we'll carefully work on your photograph to create the best result possible from the original.
Usually Ready Within 24 Hours
Most photo restoration jobs are usually completed in no more than 24 hours once the work has been agreed. Very complex restorations may occasionally need longer, and we'll let you know if that's the case.
Is My Photo Suitable for Restoration?
You don't need a perfect original, but these things help us get the best possible result.
Original File Is Best
If it started as a digital photo, send the original file rather than a screenshot.
Printed Photo Is Fine
Bring the original print into the shop and we can scan it properly for you.
More Detail Helps
Higher-quality images give us more detail to work with, especially around faces.
Not Sure? Send It
Use our free photo check and we'll tell you whether restoration looks realistic before you commit.
Only Have the Original Printed Photo?
That's absolutely fine. Our photo scanning and restoration service in Rhyl means you can bring the physical photograph directly into our shop — no digital file needed.
1. Bring It In
Bring your original printed photograph to Perham Prints, 18 Wellington Road, Rhyl.
2. We Scan It
We can create a digital scan of the photograph so you don't need to photograph it on your phone.
3. Restore It
If needed, we can work on fading, marks, scratches, creases and other suitable damage.
4. Keep & Reprint
We can make extra printed copies and can also email you the finished digital image to keep.
The Better the Original, the Better the Result
For the best restoration or editing result, please send us the original photo file wherever possible rather than a screenshot, Facebook image or heavily compressed copy.
Send the Original
If the photo was taken digitally, send the original image directly from your phone, camera or computer where possible.
Highest Quality Possible
Avoid screenshots where possible. More image detail gives us more information to work with.
Physical Photos Welcome

Tell Us What You Need
