WHAT WE SCAN

Whatever materials you want us to scan (files, drawings, photos etc.), we will advise you on which service would be best for you.  These services include:

  • Office Files

    Typed up business files, contracts, correspondence etc.  This service automatically includes a process that makes it quick and easy for you to search for key words and to find the document you need. 

  • Old Photos

    Old envelopes of loose photos and photo albums.  We can scan them all and, if desired, we can also edit them as we go and curate them into a new digital album on line or real life album for your coffee table.

  • Diaries

    Hand written diaries, letters, manuscripts and even visitor’s books or recipe books.  These documents are often precious and so we make sure they are carefully preserved throughout the scanning process.

  • Children's Artwork

    School artwork, old school reports, certificates.  Special items which may be taking up space but you don’t want to throw away completely.  We can also curate these scans into a new digital album or coffee table book.
