Photo restoration, gifts and how we work
How do I restore old photos with Mended Photos?
Sign in with an email link, upload a photograph, and we gently repair scratches, fading and torn corners. You can colourise old photos when the original has faded. You will see a preview first, then you can save a file or order a gift printed in the UK.
Is the first restore free?
Yes. Your first restore is a free preview, and you do not need a card to start. The free preview is watermarked and lower-resolution. The clean, full-size file unlocks when you order a print, or when you use a credit.
Can I colourise old photos?
Yes. When you start a restore you can choose to restore natural colour, or keep the photograph in black and white. Colourising is optional.
What photo restoration gifts can I order?
Once a photo is mended you can order Christmas, birthday or anniversary cards from £4.50, a landscape matte art print from £12.99, a photo mug at £16.99, a tote bag at £18.99, an acrylic photo block at £24.99, a photo slate at £29.99, a framed A4 portrait print at £34.99, and a 12×16 inch canvas at £39.99. Gifts are printed and posted in the UK. Order by 14 December 2026 for Christmas delivery.
How much is UK delivery?
Greeting cards, including send-direct cards, are £1.99 to send in the UK. Every other product is £3.99 for one item, by Royal Mail Tracked 48. Tracked 24 is a £1.50 surcharge. In a basket we charge the highest delivery band, plus 50p for each extra item.
Where are my photographs kept?
Restored photos stay in your Photo Vault until you delete them. You can delete a single photo, or your account, at any time. We do not use your photographs to train our models.
Do you offer next-day delivery?
No. Prints are made to order in the UK and sent by Royal Mail Tracked 48, with optional Tracked 24. Production usually takes a few working days before dispatch.
