Restore water damaged photos with AI
Water stains, sticking, and the faded blotches left after a flood or a leaky box can be cleaned up automatically. The AI separates the stain from the image underneath and rebuilds the original tone.

Scan it before it gets worse
Water damage keeps spreading as a print dries and sticks. Digitize it now, even if it looks rough — a scan freezes the damage where it is and gives you something to work from. If prints are stuck together, don't force them apart dry; a conservator can advise, but a careful scan of the visible side still helps.
Stains, blooming, and lost emulsion
Surface staining and discoloration clean up well, because the picture beneath is intact. Where water has lifted the emulsion and the image is physically gone, the AI fills the area with plausible detail rather than the original — convincing for backgrounds, less so for a face. Set expectations by how much actual image survived.
Common questions
- The colors have gone orange and faded. Can that be fixed?
- Yes. Color casts and fading from age or moisture are among the things AI restoration corrects most reliably, bringing back neutral tones and contrast.
- Two photos are stuck together — what do I do?
- Don't peel them apart dry. Scan what's visible and run that. For valuable prints stuck face-to-face, a professional conservator can separate them safely first.
