Héctor has done several amazing jobs for me. He is a wise advisor in all art matters. Most recently he restored and framed a 1950 still life. The artwork was stained and damaged. Hector brought back its original beauty as intended by the artist. I am most grateful that my family can now enjoy this piece of heritage! read more

This is what I paid $148 for and honestly I could have spent a third of that at Hobby Lobby and accomplished close to the same or at least something I would have been just as happy with. Everyone was pleasant to deal with and professional but I think it just depends on what your needing framed and the value of the item. This was not worth the money to me but I had ordered it so I must pay at this point. read more

Just picked up 3 custom framed art pieces from Hector and they look awesome! Hector gave us a personalized experience from the initial consultation to the final product, and we couldn't be happier with the results! We'll be back! read more

If you desire quality framing and professional care for your art, Hector's is the best place in Gainesville. We had a fire 16 months ago and needed a couple of pieces with new glass, new mat and new backing, and also a print I was able to repurchase needed to be completely framed. They all turned out better than expected. Hector has the ability to find mats and frames that pull out the color in a picture or in other ways enhance its beauty. The quality of the frame, glass and mat will ensure that the picture will be protected and maintain its beauty. While the cost is not cheap, it is because you pay for quality and professional care. We highly recommend Hector for your framing needs. read more

I work in the art industry and therefore have a great collection of prints, photographs, and artworks that are of different non-standard styles. Hector Framing & Gallery is the only place I trust to frame it for many reasons. First of all, Hector is very nice, carefully listens, and understands the needs. He has an amazing sense of style and, over years, learned my taste too. Next, the workplace is always clean and Hector is careful with handling and storing artwork. He is very good at details and uses quality materials. I got the best frame for my diploma in the entire cohort! Finally, the price is very affordable given the time spent on custom work. I absolutely recommend Hector to all my friends-artists or whoever needs to frame something. read more

A very good place to get framing services. I called a local arts professional at a major public institution for recommendations -(not to name names)- and that person recommended this place and one other for museum quality framing services. I chose this place since it was the smaller of the two options, and I always aim for the little guy. I became pleasantly engaged in a great conversation with the owner and, in the end, had 3 pieces framed. I have over 200 pcs in my collection, and I honestly -hate- paying for framing - it exists to protect work IMO, and its a necessity, not a 'want'. I'm much happier spending money on more art, but these three pieces needed protection. Sidenote: Reminds me why I buy mostly paintings. Framing can be omitted if the edge is done right. heh. In any case, the work was done well, within a reasonable budget, and within a reasonable time. Plus the owner has an eclectic collection of work himself. I really appreciate his passion for religious 3-D work. I'm unfamiliar with that genre, but it was interesting to learn a small bit there. I'll be back when its time to get my graduate diploma framed! read more

My first time to the shop, Hector came in earlier than scheduled just to give me personalize framing advice. They did an excellent job framing my 5 paintings despite that my canvasses were a challenge because they were flimsy. Hector handled them great and didn't rip any of them. I will definitely go back with my next batch of artwork. P.S. it's that place right next to Leo's 706. read more

My experience with Hector Picture Framing was fantastic. Hector is an artist at what he does and he knows his stuff. Not only will he put your art in the perfect frame but he will also pay attention to the smallest details and this is what makes his work so special. Hector is the best in the business and I highly recommend him! read more

I've been to Hector's F & G twice now to have about 10 LE prints framed. I know art but not frames and Hector spent at least a half hour discussing framing options with me for each work - every time I've been in there. They all turned out great with no damage done to any of them.This is a very professional company, with an owner that genuinely cares for his clients. It's worth mentioning that I got my framed prints back within 2 days of the order, which I thought was amazing considering the number of prints that I bring in there at a time. Thanks, Hector! God bless! and Semper Fi! read more

I had 2 pictures framed by Hector himself. The results were high quality and very professional. I recommend Hector to anyone who wants a professional framing. When I first visited Hector's store I found it to be a little crowded and disorganized. Really, there is no place for even the customer to stand, and no examples of their work were shown to me. As someone who had never had a professional framing done before, this made me a little uncomfortable. But getting to talk to Hector himself was reassuring. You could see this was his passion and he knew what he was doing. He was able to turn around the work fast and called me personally when they were finished. I love the work he did and was very happy with his service. Prices are high, but this is professional framing. This is for works of art or documents you want preserved for a lifetime with the best quality. It's a small price to pay when you think of it that way. read more

Absolutely love my Jim Harrison Gainesville Fruit Co. pieces. Best framing gallery in Gainesville!

I came here to get some family heirlooms framed.the owner was at the shop and was able to direct me towards a style and price that was perfect for me. After a week and a half I got my call and all three frames were perfect! I definitely recommend these guys. plus it's also a gallery and there is a lot of interesting artwork up. I think that there is a show next month and I'm definitely going to go. read more

I read reviews and was pleased that all were very true ! I took in a special canvas print that a close friend painted and gave to me as a gift. Hector knew immediately what this special print needed and I loved the framing ,as did my friend. Will never use another framing company again! read more

I have used Hector Framing and Gallery twice now and could not be happier. This place is in a good location here in Gainesville and the staff is both friendly and experienced. If you're looking for great quality work with very fair prices, Hector's is the place to go. I will use and highly recommend them again. read more

I have a full set of Lady Frieda Harris tracing boards, which Hector beautifully framed in such a fashion as to accent the synthetic projective geometry of the artwork. I am very pleased with the prices, professionalism, and workmanship of Hector and his crew. Highly recommended! read more

I had four prints framed by Hector for my office. I was tired of blah offices so I wanted them to look stunning, but had no idea what the best framing or matting options were to accomplish that. Hector examined the pieces, asked about the lighting in my office, and then made a gorgeous suggestion. The prints were framed within a week or so and they do indeed look amazing on the wall. The frame job can have a big impact on the visuals for a piece. If you have art that is important to you, I strongly recommend Hector to take care of it and figure out how to show it off to its best potential. read more

Hector is the consummate artiste. All of his suggestions for pieces I've brought him have been lovely, economical & art-appropriate. His staff are courteous & efficient, & I enjoy talking with Hector about each piece, its history & provenance. Those to whom I've recommended Hector have also been quite pleased. The gallery walls are worth a trip by itself. Outstanding!! read more

I came into Hector's Framing & Gallery with a painting on cradled board that was too deep for most all of the frames I had come across to that point. Hector proposed a unique and creative solution for my piece, and the result was beyond anything I could have expected. The framing elevated my painting to the next level. I have a newfound respect for what framing can do for artwork, and will be sure to revisit Hector Framing & Gallery in the future. read more
