Preferred Graphics Art & Framing

We just moved here and had various pieces of sentimental art ranging from hand crafted paper bought in fiji to a poem hand written on a thank you card by my best friend to japanese fish rubbings we picked up a store closing– things that were very sentimental but not necessarily expensive. I went in with no real vision and Paul Iverson helped me pick out frames and mattes for each one of them in a helpful, relaxed way, always with alternatives for different price points. I never felt pressured in any way, and there was no upsell. I could tell right away that he knew what he was doing and more importantly, he cared very much about the final result.
He gave a 20% discount since my husband and I chose the place based on the Unilocal reviews too! The pieces all came back in a week and they are stunning. Every piece has been totally elevated. We can’t wait to put them up. Oh, and he also gave some great advice for framing pieces for our nursery (plexiglass so if they fall in an earthquake it won’t shatter). We will be bringing back work to have the glass swapped out.

I have taken many pieces of art here to get framed and I am always happy with the the job they do and the customer service. I have taken all ranges of sizes and types of art here. Great prices and speedy service. I have even bought some art from their archives. Recently had some art framed for a nursery and it turned out amazing. Aaron Bro. quoted 10x the amount I paid here to frame 2 medium size pieces of art. I will only take my framing business here for now on!

I found this place on Unilocal and thought I’d give them a try since they seemed pretty cheap and there is no clear Unilocal winner in framing… at least not that I could find. I had a 20×18 inch diploma that I actually framed myself to match a second diploma, except when I hung it on my wall I could see all sorts of wrinkles and it was pissing me off. I tried ironing it and pressing it under books for days and it would look wrinkle free until I hung it and then I saw them again.
So I called these guys and they sounded really nice and willing to work with me so I took in the framed diploma and they worked their magic. I cant remember the terms he used, but they pretty much adhered the diploma to a piece of foam board and then put it back in the frame I already had… so it looks the exact same from the front but with no stupid wrinkles :) Had I actually gotten it professionally framed in the first place it probably would have been easier & less time consuming… next time I’ll just take my stuff here.
As for the stop/​staff, the place was small but it worked. And the guy that helped me was super nice and 1) didn’t make me feel stupid for attempting to frame it myself and failing, 2) didn’t try to push me to buy a whole new frame since it was a matching set and 3) was fast, professional, and very experienced and knowledgeable about what my options were. The service definitely made me want to bring them my business again.

I came here after seeing the positive reviews on Unilocal and I am glad I did. I had four 17×11″ surf photographs that I needed framed. Preferred Graphics did a great job and produced exactly what I was looking for. Paul (the owner) and the staff were very professional and great to work with. I highly recommend them!

I had a painting that I recently purchased at an art auction and I wanted to make sure I took it to a quality framing store, since it was a very valuable and meaningful piece of art. I found Paul here on Unilocal and I’m so glad I went to his shop. He was very helpful and he has some many beautiful frames to chose from! I had a very specific way that I wanted this painting displayed. He made some suggestions but I felt very strongly about how I wanted it presented. He was very gracious to work with my requests, and I really appreciated that! My painting is now hanging in my living room and looks quite lovely. And I think Paul’s quality craftsmenship is the reason why!
Oh, and mention that you found him on Unilocal… you’ll be glad you did!

This was my first time ever needing anything professionally framed. I live nearby and saw good reviews on Unilocal.
My grandfather sent me a fragile piece of canvas /​a part of a painting he had had for 30+ years from Ireland. I needed to have it framed for my brothers college graduation.
The guy here was helpful and nice and I had chosen a mat and frame within like 10 minutes! He suggested an archival uv protected glass which I would have never thought of (and chose)
They framed it up and it looked great! If I ever need anything framed again Ill come back :).

Paul rules! I recently brought a Keane litho to get framed. I have had it for a while now and just have never brought it in… I brought it in and told Paul (owner) that my collection of «Big Eyed Pop-​Art» are all distressed vintage framing. I explained that I wanted this piece to be framed in something similar. A week latter I get my beautiful «The Stray» back. He uses quality materials. It was framed in wood from Italy that had this amazing distressed look to it. I am so happy. He does a lot of the framing for big companies like Quicksilver and tons of artist use him for his skills! Anyhoo, he is reasonable and is also prompt! If you are looking for a person who does good framing this is where one should come!

These guys are awesome!!! We brought a couple of things to be framed: My husbands beloved Joy Division poster and a couple of baby pictures of my son. I took a picture of a frame that had another picture in, I wanted to get matching ones to do a collage of baby pictures on the wall. They matched it perfectly and even saved me money! Bottom line check them out, I highly recommend PG
