General Book Repair


The book repair work undertaken by ‘The Bookbindery’

is tremendously varied.
Repairs can be as simple as tipping in a loose page to volumes that require major restoration work.

The types of books repaired, restored or rebound is widely contrasting, too. Many books are repaired because of their special value to the person, family, business or institution that owns them, rather than because of any monetary value.My World of Fairy Tales - before being rebound by The Bookbindery

We repair a lot of family related books and documents - from servicemen's diaries to family histories to photograph albums, and MANY other volumes. Favourite dictionaries, thesaurus, and similar volumes are another type of volume that we repair or rebind regularly. We get used to our own particular volume, moreover a special volume is often much more useful to its owner than other supposedly similar books. Old atlases can be very interesting and are often highly valued. We repair a lot of children's books that have been special favourites and people want them for their own family to enjoy. We repair a lot of cookbooks to preserve treasured recipes. Some technical books are very difficult to replace and well worth repairing. We repair many books that contain signatures of family members, books that have been gifted, and so on, and on ...

We get real pleasure from book repair, so if you have a treasured volume in need of repair:
