Our Services
We very much enjoy the huge variety of material that is brought to us for framing and presentation; being quite happy to deal with a child's first artwork or the family photos; whilst at the same time working with living artists to produce conservation framing up to museum standards.
We have an open door to anyone who wishes to preserve and present anything of importance to them.
Here is a list of our areas of expertise, but if your requirements are outside these areas, then talk to us, we can probably find a solution.
PICTURE FRAMES.
We have a very large selection of picture frame mouldings in stock, and any special requirements outside that we don't hold can be obtained within a week. To add to your choice, we have over 30 plain wood mouldings that can be painted in any of 35 colours, plus an extensive range of coloured aluminium mouldings.
POURED ACRYLIC RESIN.
Of recent development and growing popularity, poured resin can be used over any medium to give a distinctive high-gloss glassy finish. Usually presented unframed, we can professionally apply this method to your artwork.
MOUNT CUTTING.
Our very extensive range of mountboard colours are all acid-free. For a traditional look for watercolours, we can add washlines, gold and silver lines, and v-grooves.
SPORTS SHIRTS, FLAGS, MEDALS, MEMORABILIA.
We have considerable experience in dealing with the strangest of items. Sports shirts and medals are the most popular, but we have framed cricket bats, flags, artwork on marble, coins, lego!, pretty well anything you can imagine, we can find a solution for you.
GLASS.
As well as the traditional 2mm picture glass, we stock a selection of superior glasses for UV protection to stop fading; and a fascinating state-of-the-art non-reflective glass. For safety or to reduce the weight of large frames, we can easily incorporate Perspex, rather than normal glass, and this also is available with UV protection and a non-reflective coating.
CANVAS STRETCHING.
We are experts in stretching canvas and other media either for presentation unframed, or framed, whichever is your preference.
MOUNTING.
With our cold-press mounting system we can take the creases and wrinkles out of your favourite old posters. For a modern frameless look we can mount your prints or photographs on to Dibond and other supports, laminate, and face-mount on to perspex.
& MORE.
Whatever your requirement, however bizarre, give us a call or drop by and we’re sure we can find a solution.
