thanks guys will check em out

[Mrs Mouse]

When I was at Nick Walker's exhibition at the Park, I asked him who did his framing for his exhibition work. He said it is:

Joe Cashman, Monach House, 1-7 Smyth Road, Bedminster, Bristol BS3 2BX Tel [phone]

I haven't tried them out but I figure that if it's good enough for an artist, that should be a pretty good recommendation.

[weeble]

Thanks Mouse, sounds like a top tip

[cheeky007]

I use niche.
Top framers, great service.

[saajid22]

i can also recomend niche

[Hugs]

Niche for me to.
Nice people,ask for Steve,allways takes good care of your work and knows his stuff.

[weeble]

Cheers guys - gonna try Niche then on Saturday. Is it next to the pie shop? That's near the full moon... I think I've seen it

[saajid22]

yep m8, i can also recomend the pie shop too

[saltandiron]

Here's the idea - Start up a series of threads with 'Framers - Location (like london, manchester, B'ham etc) Then everyone puts their recommendations, warnings etc in them Makes it a central place for people to get details. Maybe a mod could make them sticky? So start them up for your area!

I'll get the party started....

The Framing Workshop, Walcot Street Bath

www.theframingworkshop.com/

Nice guys, really knew their stuff, spent a good hour in there with them picking out mounts etc. When I went to collect my prints one wasn't ready becuase they weren't happy with it (frame scuffed) so they do care about a good service.

They're on Walcot st, the end nearest town.

framers workshop in bristol is to be avoided,they had a friends Radar rat (!) and another banksy for framing,fusseh from ebay forum,went in and luckily spotted that the IDIOTS had it leaning against a wall amongst other prints,totaly unprotected! HORRORS...needless to say ,friend went in,had words and took them to Niche frames on stokescroft,who treated them with the respect that they deserved...did a great job of the framing too..thank goodness..

[Run Pig Run]

yeah, I don't think some places realise the value of these prints - they are probably used to just framing a poster or a photo. always go in without the prints first to suss them out.

I used to know them and they were always top people!

Agree about Niche,I've used them for all my framing of late,always get a great job there.

[RetroCanvas]

I use Pricelis framers. They're in Holcombe, near Radstock.

They won the national framing award in London last year so know what they're doing.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Nice one Retro!!!!!

They're about 30 mins from me. Will def give them a visit sometime over the next week or so! ;D

[RetroCanvas]

Say that I (Andrew) from retrocanvas recommended you. I'm not on commission or anything, just try to support them as much as I can. They are very nice people and are great at what they do. They actually produce the prints that I sell of my artwork. Which is nice.

Just got my 1st print back from Priceless and they've done an excellent job.

Really lovely people in there too.

Thanks for the recommendation Retro.

This is a great idea as framing can be a nightmare. Does anyone know of any framers in the North west , Liverpool, Manchester area that they would recommend for my Banksy
