In October I shipped a fairly expensive acrylic on canvas painting from Dallas to Lodi, and…read morealthough it was crated unfortunately the Conservation Glass in the frame cracked. I pulled apart just enough of the backing, retaining pins and canvas so I could remove the broken glass. I was afraid the damage to the back of the frame and some rubs on the matting would cause this to be an expensive repair. When I took it in to McKinley's Frame Shop, the owner Danielle she said it was a simple repair and she would have it done in a few days. Four days later, it was ready and when I picked it up I think it looked better than when I made the purchase, and Danielle was super reasonable in her pricing. I won't have my artwork framed anywhere else.

I have to shout out other Yelpers for helping me find CR Framing & Gallery. I had a canvas that I…read morewanted to have stretched and placed on a high quality wood frame--and I wanted it done by someone who knows their stuff when it comes to original artwork. I was thinking I'd have to go to Oakland or SF. After checking Yelp for recommendations I found Chris at CR and I was thrilled to find out the business is located less than 10 minutes from my home. I called Chris first to find out if this is the kind of work he does and then I visited. Seeing the quality of the work they do, I didn't hesitate to leave my painting to be stretched. Not only did Chris do an excellent job, he added a heavy paper backing for me to protect the canvas as well as hanging wire. Now all I have to do is hang it! The service was great and at a very reasonable cost. I will be a repeat customer!

I was looking for a recommendation for a framing shop for some paintings, and CR Framing came…read morehighly recommended. The shop is located a couple blocks off the main drag in Brentwood but GPS pointed the way. I found Chris friendly, knowledgeable and professional for consulting on my framing needs. Several paintings were for future sale, and one I wanted to display at home. The three paintings for sale could get a lower overall price if I selected the same frame/mats as Chris explained they pass on a quantity/materials discount. For the painting we would keep I chose a slightly more expensive frame and UV protected plexiglass. CR has a wide variety of frames and mats: one wall with frames in stock that are less expensive and have a faster turnaround, fancier frames that need to be ordered are on the opposite wall. Glass options range from normal glass all the way up to museum quality material with varying degrees of price, weight and light-protective qualities. Thinking in advance on the size of frame and mat for your picture always helps. The finished framed paintings looked great - the right frame makes such a difference! I intend to return to CR for all my framing needs in the future.

Devondre is the best customer service in framing I've ever received. Beyond having a great eye for…read morematching frames/artwork/and matting, he is patient, kind, and efficient. I had 7 pieces of art that I wanted to update the matting for, some with multiple openings in one frame. He assisted with the color choices but was never pushy in an attempt to needlessly make me pay more than a fair price. Moreover, I have been to 3 framers for a very special custom piece and never went through with the order because of poor designs and awful customer service. Devondre did what they couldn't due in 15 minutes and I gladly paid $600 for this one special piece. From selling me a few quick ready mades, redesigning mats for pieces I already have, to custom work, I got 8 pieces completed in an hour. Thank you Devondre, you have a new regular customer in me.

Cheap Pete's has numerous locations and I go to their shop in Alameda. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and offer great service. The best salesperson at that location is Melissa.

Nonetheless, each and every time I'm incredibly amazed at the quality of the print because they're beautifully done. Now that's great service!!!

Knowing nothing about framing or the Modesto area I spent a lot of time on Google/Yelp reading reviews of large chain stores, I found Norm's Frame Shop on the list and the reviews raves about his extensive knowledge and attention to detail. On my first visit, Norm was extremely welcoming and not pretentious about his work- he explained to me what he thought I needed and how he would choose materials that would ensure the longevity of my documents. He was extremely communicative and found ways to work within my budget. Norm is such a great business man, who cares a lot about his work and about his customers. We never were able to finish my second diploma because time got away from me and I was moved to Memphis for work. Still, Norm shares notes with me to give to my next framer so they can complete the Job. I don't know if I'll find another framer as good as Norm, but I'm so happy I own one of his pieces.

He ended up doing way more than I expected. He not only repaired the frame, but he also hand painted the frame and gold trim. He put new paper on the back and new hangars and wire. He also spent some time gluing the fabric matt down. It looks better than when I got it. I appreciate the time and care that Norm put into my vintage piece.
