Picture Framing Customer Reviews and Testimonials

Limited Edition Print Framing
Review: I can heartily recommend Alan. He could not have been more helpful when the frame of a rather nice limited edition print needed a repair. A quick trip to the workshop and the frame is now as good as new - if not better. It's also notable that Alan was quick to respond, easy to approach and very courteous. Many thanks! Gary

Large Colourful Print Framing
Review: Alan framed a large, colourful print for me. I was really impressed with the time and care Alan took while we chose the best mount and frame for the print. He also gave great advice about how best to protect and conserve the picture. I was thrilled with the result and would definitely use Alans’ services again. Highly recommended.

Review: Alan did a great job on framing the portraits of my great grandparents painted in the late 19th century that I had recently restored. He was very helpful in advising me on the right type of frame. I am very pleased with the result.

Watercolour Paintings Framed
Review: The frames and mounts housing my collection of watercolour paintings dating from early to mid twentieth century were in need of attention. Thanks to the artistic skills, knowledge and expertise of Alan Butfoy whose help and advice in choosing new frames and line wash mounts has resulted in a complete transformation of these paintings to my gratitude and delight.

Picture and Print Framing
Review: Alan has framed many pictures for me over the years, high quality, great advice, good communications and, always a great end product! Don't normally give recommendations, but after picking up four prints we got in France that he framed, I thought I would write a review. If you want something special framed you will love what Alan delivers.

Limited Edition Prints Framed to Conservation Standards
Review: As a compulsive collector of limited edition prints, I have a steady stream of framing requirements and for several years have entrusted Alan to take care of them. From the Spanish masters (Picasso, Miro, Dali) to the British (Graham Sutherland, Terry Frost, Patrick Caulfield) which I have steered in Alans direction over the years, all have been framed professionally, with conservation techniques, and for a competitive price. The high standard of framing has helped me sell these on when required, as I look to keep my collection fresh. Alan always treats the artworks with care and provides a great service - I recommend you use him!

He produces work of high quality and at a fair price, offering sound advice on the suitability of materials as well as the visual presentation of the art work.

Theatre pictures framed
Review: I have used Alan’s services on many occasions over the years and would highly recommend him. Alan is always professional, efficient and takes great pride in his work. The quality is always second to none and the frames used always offset the colours in the pictures beautifully. Alan has a real eye for detail and always makes excellent recommendations. It is well worth while paying that bit extra to have your artwork framed professionally as it is a centre piece for any room. I recently had some Theatre pictures framed for my daughters bedroom, which look absolutely magnificent. I will certainly be using Alan’s services again in the future. Thank you very much.

Re-framing and mounting artwork
Review: Alan was really helpful. We asked him to re-fame 3 prints and mount 3 others from scratch. He was very patient whilst we deliberated on frame choice (and ending up choosing something totally different to what we had planned). He offered constructive advice and allowed us to check that the frame sample would work with the intended location. He also managed to match mounts from previous framing years earlier. The final results were great, we have several pictures that look fabulous - just need to decide which walls to hang them on now!

Framed cycling shirts to commemorate a charity bike ride from London-to-Paris
Review: We used Berkshire Bespoke Picture Framing to frame 4 signed cycling shirts to commemorate a charity bike ride from London-to-Paris, which were presented to the Group Chairman, Chief Executive, programme sponsor and programme manager as part of the graduation ceremony on completion of an accelerated development programme within our business. The quality of the craftsmanship and customer service were first class, and the price was reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to use Berkshire Bespoke Picture Framing again in future either professionally or privately.
