I brought in 4 very folded up and creased oil on canvas paintings I picked up from Africa and handed it to Mario. He patiently helped me cycle through many different frame styles and also provided guidance on what would be better for the style. He promised a date and delivered on time and the workmanship was awesome. Mario is a very warm person to work with and his work is amazing! I wouldn't look beyond Bay Frames for my framing needs! read more

I had a large lithograph fall off the wall and break the very expensive frame. Mario repaired it & cleaned the surface. Excellent work. read more

I loved working with Bay Frames! I went out of my way from Sunnyvale to Fremont to use their expertise for a Chinoiserie painting, and it was completely worth it. He thoughtfully considered my entire room and patiently walked me through multiple framing options across different styles and price points before we finalized the perfect one. Highly recommend for anyone looking for expert guidance and a truly personalized experience. read more

We originally went to Bay Frames to replace a scenic silk scarf that was in a glass frame with a different scarf. Mario did such a nice and professional job that we returned to order a custom-made frame for another scarf, which was completed in about 2-3 weeks. Their prices are very reasonable, too, so we would highly recommend them to others. read more

Just have faith in Mario and let him do his thing! I used to bring my jerseys to another shop to be framed, but not any more. Only bringing them to Mario at Bay frames from now on, just dropped off 2 more with him after seeing the job he did on the first one. Thanks Mario! read more

Bay Frames - Framing Near Me - Fremont, California

Awesome job with an antique family photo. I am thrilled to preserve the memory. Communicated well.

I was in a bit of a panic. Two custom frames that I had ordered from an out of state company arrived just days before my works needed to shipped out to two separate museum shows, and they were total junk. I went to a local framer in Los Gatos and he recommended I try Mario. I immediately called Mario, explained my situation and he invited me to come by that night, and that he'd help me take care it. (He stayed past business hours to help me.) True to his word, he helped me identify the best frames that could be ordered and built by my deadline, and had them ready to go. It was not cheap, but he offered a slight discount on the frame he thought would be best for my larger piece. When I came to pick up, they were meticulously wrapped and very professional. I just got word that one of my paintings that he framed was awarded the Gold Medal for Best Portrait in the California Art Club's Gold Medal Exhibition, and it sold. Without Mario, this just wouldn't have happened. I am so grateful for his over the top customer service and his award winning framing! read more

So glad I found Bay Frames! Mario is an expert on framing , provides excellent advice and framming options, and his company did a fantastic job stretching and hanging my rolled canvas's. The selection of frames in this store is also very impressive, in addition to offering many standard frames also features many unique styles from all over the world. This will be my go to framing company in the future. Thanks Mario ! read more

If you need a frame, Bay Frames is the best place to go! First, they have many frames on display to choose from. Second, they have an expert framer who will take his take to work with you to find the perfect frame for your painting or whatever you want framed. A few years ago they framed two relatively large Persian rugs with a glass cover. And they even came to my place to hang it, since this is a heavy piece of art. And they framed a painting by possibly, D.M Rivera and also did a great job of selecting and framing it. And recently they framed a relatively large painting for me. They helped me choose a beautiful blue and white combo frame that makes the art look even more beautiful. And they delivered it. Bay Frames is the only place I will go when I want something framed. They share their expertise and sense of art.. And they take their time to help you select a beautiful frame for your art. They do magnificent work to complement your magnificent art. Bay Frames is top notch. If you value your art, then Bay Frames is the place to go for the best framing. The place is located in an industrial complex's. So use your GPS to find them. Or you might spend ten minutes searching for the place. But it's definitely the place to go when you need something framed. They are the best. read more

Needed a last minute photo framed for a friend. Mario worked with me to get it done on time. It looks amazing. Thank you!

We had some art work from a recent trip toThailand and Bali that we needed framed. Mario was fantastic to work with. He spent time to give us several options and his expert opinion. The frames turned out even better than we imagined and really made our art work stand out. Highly recommend! read more

Very happy with the work replacing the original acrylic with museum quality acrylic. I originally requested museum glass and was given all the pluses for using the acrylic as a better solution. Besides reducing the glare the museum acrylic helps protect my Ansel Adams photos from UV damage. I would recommend if you want to have high quality work for your special wall hangings this is the place to go. read more

10 Stars!!! Look no further if you are looking for custom frames in the Bay Area..we were looking to frame a ~ 80"x40" hand made leatherette artwork. Most Bay Area framers said it was too big or too exquisite. We knew exactly how we wanted it framed and others tried to talk us out of it ... but Mario knew exactly what we envisioned, suggested a few options, worked patiently with us and did a perfect job... Great customer service, delivery and install.. read more

They created an over 90" wide framed mirror to go over a double sink area. I was trying to compliment two different colors in the bathroom, so he patiently helped me find the perfect pieces of wood. He talked about the special way he was going to hang this wide and heavy mirror. He talked about the special finish to protect the frame from water damage, as it was going in a bathroom. He did offer delivery and installation for an additional charge, which we did. So, a year later the framed mirror is still in perfect condition. As a side note, I had been looking at mirrors for about a year before coming to Bay Frames. The mirrors with lights behind them look really nice, but what about 10 years from now? Also considered large mirror cabinets, but I couldn't recess them. read more

Everything! Owner very experienced, helped me choose the best frame that goes with the colors in the painting! Very happy with the results!

Recently visited Mario at Bay Frames to stretch and frame a couple souvenirs I purchased in Brazil. Results speak for themselves -- Mario did a fantastic job! So much so, that I recently went back to frame a couple more pieces. Highly recommend trusting Mario with your framing needs (and picking out a frame that would work best for your art). read more

I'm so happy with Bay Frames. Mario has gone above and beyond numerous times with my framing needs. I'm an Artist and sometimes have tight deadlines. I can always rely on him for getting things completed exactly when he has promised them. And his prices are lower than other shops I've used. He's professional and knowledgeable on the best ways to frame and preserve artwork. Highly recommend! read more

Mario has become my go to person for custom frames. He is very knowledgeable and his frames always exceed my expectations. Mario has made my photos and textiles look like high end art pieces. His prices are reasonable and you're investing in quality frames that can last a lifetime. What impressed me the most is my latest project where he framed a textile I got from Mexico in an acrylic box. It came out amazing and I get so many compliments from it. He also prints high quality photos. Thanks Mario! read more

5 stars, outstanding framing shop. Mario had excellent customer service and took time to explain some of the process of framing as i really had no clue. We look at a few options and got creative together and found that frame and backdrop that would elevate the art. Very knowledgeable and kind individual! Highly recommend and will return for any other frame work I need. Thank you Mario read more

Had a Justin Bua piece that was done on canvas. I was really nervous about getting it mounted on stretched wood frame so I was careful about where it took it. I found this lance and it had great reviews. They are very friendly and very helpful. I told them to take their time and I returned about a week later and it was perfect. You may pay a little more but if you invest in art, you should want to protect your investment. Super happy with the final product and the service. 5 stars!! read more

Mario did an amazing job with my remarqued Darth Vader Canvas print. This was my first time getting something professionally framed and he was so knowledgeable and helpful. He spent a good amount of time with me to make sure I picked out the very best shade of red for the mat to match the red on the print and made sure to note my size constraints. After getting my print back about a week later, I can 100% say that I am a fan of Mario's work. I opted for museum glass and when he brought it out from the back I was so taken aback on how clean it looked. I even asked him "Is there even glass on there?!". It was also packaged very safely for the car ride home. After talking with a few of my friends who regularly get their art professionally framed, I found out that Mario has one of the BEST rates. I definitely recommend Mario and this shop. He has won a longtime customer. Can't wait to get my other art framed by him! read more

The mounting and framing can turn a $40 print into a beautiful piece of art! We usually have our mounting and framing done at that place that starts with a M. They do a good job, but sometimes takes longer than a week. I'm not always that patient. We haven't had any done at M lately, so I don't have a price comparison. Bay Frames is in an industrial park off Automall parkway. Huge selection of frames of different materials, colors, and styles. Personal service. Finished in a week. Looks like a million bucks! read more

I researched several frame shops and found that Bay Frames had a large number of satisfied customers. Mario was very professional in helping me find the perfect frames for my prints. I liked that he knew what type of frame would go well with the prints. I ended up going with a rustic look for both. He is very knowledgeable in the work that he does. It was my first time having custom frames made. Mario walked me through step-by-step. I was given a date when both prints would be framed and ready for pick-up. I waited a few days after that date and called and left a message. I didn't hear back from anyone. I stopped by the shop and was told my frames weren't ready. The reason given was that the machine used to make the frames was broken. No one called me back and no one was answering the line... so, I didn't know that the frames weren't ready. The woman (I believe Mario's wife) was in the shop that day and was very apologetic about the situation and apologized that no one returned my call. I was able to speak to Mario eventually and he explained the situation. He worked his best to get my frames completed within a day or two after the machine was repaired. My frames were ready the next day. I was upset that no one told me about the issue, but because Mario did his best to keep me a satisfied customer, I am still giving him a 5 star rating. The frames turned out great and I am completely satisfied with his work. Friendliness and professionalism goes a very long way. I am a satisfied customer. read more

We're very pleased with the frame that Mario at Bay Frames created for us! The art print we bought elsewhere was a non-standard size, so a custom frame was really the only solution. Glad we went here instead of the big chain store that shall remain nameless. Mario spent about 30 minutes helping us select the right mat and frame combination (which wasn't an easy task!) and the final result was flawless. The product he made was so high quality that it actually improved the art itself, which we bought elsewhere and had a sub-par print quality. Highly recommended! He also sells a small number of pre-framed art pieces that are quite nice as well. read more

I had much more than a stellar experience with Bay Frames. I live in Castro Valley but still went all the way to Fremont to drop off my rolled up art work, because the price Mario had quoted was very reasonable as compared to most other quotes, and he also had very good ratings to Yelp. Mario was very courteous and helpful in helping me choose the frame. He also offered to deliver it to my home in Castro Valley and hang it for me (this was a huge 6 feet high framed painting), again for a very reasonable fee (it wouldn't have fit in my SUV in any case). He was a pleasure to deal with even when he came over to hang it, late on a weekday night. I am so glad I found a great framing service. I am not only going back there for more framing needs, I'm also surely going to recommend them to all my Friends. read more

This is an excellent shop. They framed two canvas paintings for us and provided great frame recommendations too. We'll go with them for our next framing project. read more

Came in with 3 canvas prints that I needed stretched and put on braces. The woman who helped me, who I believe to be the owner, was absolutely delightful to talk with while she walked me through the process. It took only to a week or so for it to be completed and at a fairly reasonable price. I'm extremely happy with the way that the pieces came out and will only be going here for my framing needs from now on. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality framing. read more

Love the bathroom vanity mirrors that Mario created for us. The wood color matched perfectly with our vanities! They're sturdy and beautiful. He even called me to let me know how my contractor handled the mirrors a bit roughly when they picked them up and that I might want to look into that when I receive the mirrors. Thankfully the mirrors arrived in perfect condition. Love that Mario cares a lot about his workmanship, the end result, and his clients. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Mario is seriously the best . He has a variety of inventory. His prices are great and beyond reasonable. Skip Michael's or other places. Get value for your investment.

Our go to shop! The customer service here is amazing. He has a great selection to choose from and truly does an impeccable job.

Soooo happy with job Mario did for an oil painting I had shipped over from Italy. This was my first real artwork ever purchased and therefor my first time needing custom framework. Mario was friendly, patient and provided me several options when I came in to be helped. I went with a frame he chose and it ended up looking great! The frame was done on time and the pricing was fair. I will definitely come back to see Mario for any future framing needs! read more
