In my experience, they share the passion for the medium are very knowledgeable and won't hesitate to engage another staff member for their opinion.

Took literally 38s according to my phone. This after a bit of a customer-service nightmare trying to get the same information out of a competing camera repair shop (see my previous review where I got some seriously sketchy vibes). Next time I'll skip the other guys and talk to Kerrisdale first.

Not only was the frame too flimsy to be picked up from the top without bending so much that the fasteners for the picture popped out, but the wire they provided for me to string up the hanging mechanism was WAY too short. From now on, I'm choosing Amazon or other custom options here in Victoria for framing, instead of these guys. So disappointed, after years of living elsewhere and having solid, professional options for framing.

I've taken two batches of items into Marlow, the owner, operator and have not been disappointed. His prices are very reasonable and he's got more than 30 years experience in the framing business so he can advise you on exactly what to choose for frame moldings, matting and types of glass. I stumbled upon this place, located off the beaten trail in a strip mall by Thriftys on Admirals Road, it's definitely worth checking out.
