The prices are in line with what I expect to pay at an award winning frame shop. I heartily recommend David Pratt and his superior staff of framers!

I literally downloaded Yelp because I feel strongly enough about custom frame and color and the…read moreguys who run it to leave another side of the story. They're the best! I've used them for years for framing and matting. They are capable of genius when cutting down a frame to fit another painting. If I want a French mat done, I don't even need to suggest the colors used. If I ask for a watercolor or print to be "floated" on a lower bed while a raised mat surrounds it, a little bit of lovely magic, they can do it. While generally, I do not order frames, they have a great line of frames - both contemporary and traditional. I've priced frames out locally and they are very competitive with their pricing. As to the time it takes for them to complete a project, I've gotten jobs back in 48 hours. It depends on how busy they are. Thankfully for them, lots of people agree with me and there are times when it takes alittle longer to get my project back from them. I have never smelled cigarette smoke in there ever. The gallery is clean, airy,and open. The work that they've done for me has been hung at the Winter Antiques Show in January in New York City. It's hung in my home and the homes of numerous other people. Can't recommend them enough!

Traditional icons like snowmen, cookies and characters from Disney, Star Wars and Marvel- they have charm and mark the years that go by all too quickly. This Hallmark shop has a little of everything from ornaments to dish towels, table mats, cards and holiday decor. The only disappointment was that a quarter of their dated ornaments were sold out including the display ornaments. I'm sure COVID put a slowdown on inventory. It's a really nice shop, convenient if you're running a grocery errand next door at Market Basket.

I hired Thibault's in December of '22 to do a basic addition to the back of our barn. They…read moreoriginally quoted $44,000. We signed a contract and he installed frost blankets and stated he would be getting right to this project over the winter months. I paid the 50% deposit up front and waited months with no commitment to any start date. April 1st 2023 is when the site work began. He asked for the next installment early so that "we could keep the project" rolling so I paid him another $19,600 before any work was done. The site work was finished in a couple days and over a month later we still had not concrete pad and a list of reasons why Thibault's could not do it. I ended up contacting someone I knew and had them come to do the concrete work. That was done on May 11th. I had told Thibault's and they agreed and said they would pay them. They did not and I was stuck with the bill. It was not until the end of may that they started the 2x4 framing and finished the basic framing and roof rafters by July 4th 2023. Thibault's then asked me for more money to which I said no. They then did the roof sheathing and started some ship lap siding. I asked many times when they could get the roofing on because all the rain had been leaking into the barn and onto the structure creating water and mold issues. They never gave me any answer or commitment to the roof so I had another friend bail me out and get the roof done and asked Thibault's to may them directly and they did not. I was stuck with yet another bill. Now it has been since July 12th and no one has showed up to finish the siding or anything else. I have asked via email 20-30 times over the last 6-7 months for any type of rough timeline or work schedule or estimates for certain aspects of the project like siding, windows, doors, garage doors, electrical, roofing, etc. and have never received any type of definitive answer. All I get is reasons why things can't be done or why workers cant show up or why Thibault's cant answer my questions and concerns. I have voiced my frustrations and concerns over and over again and get no acknowledgment or reaffirming on the job progressing and being completed in a reasonable amount of time. Now it has been 30 days since they have completed any work and I still have no answers on anything. I have spent roughly $50,000 on a basic lean-to garage and am not even close to being finished and no end in sight. I have asked to be refunded and for Thibault's to terminate the contract or finish the work with some type of expectation of a timeline and have received nothing what so ever from them. Their disregard for customers and their lack of communication and assurances is astonishing in my opinion. I have attempted to call and text with no answers and have asked for two months for a phone call and have not received one single phone call to discuss the project any issues or delays we may be facing. I don't know what to do at this point. I am out so much money and probably cannot afford to finish the project anytime soon. I have recently done some homework and found lawsuits and cases filed in local courts as well as NH Attorney General complaints and various complaints on social media and the BBB. Who knows how my story will end but I just hope that we can prevent this from happening from others moving forward. Please do your due diligence and homework before hiring and paying someone any amount of money for a project.
