Wonderful. Very friendly, helpful service. Beautiful job on my large picture. I took in my own frame, mount and poster... Very accommodating and they have done a stunning job (Especially having had to make aesthetic judgements on how to reduce the size of the picture to fit the frame.). New hangings on the back. Helped to carry out to car. Highly recommend. I will be returning

I have had my cross stitch and tapestries framed at Abingdon Picture Framing for some time. They have always done an exceptional job and the results are stunning. They are always very friendly and the results speak for themselves. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Many thanks.

Brilliant framers, wouldn't take our pictures anywhere else. Professional and well-priced, and the result always looks fabulous. Top blokes too - genuine and friendly. Worth the trip back even though we no longer live in the area.

Really friendly staff who provide a wonderful service! I took a very old framed embroidery picture in to have the glass replaced because it was broken. I explained that it was very old and held great sentimental value to me. They replaced the glass with a high quality non reflective glass and also cleaned the dust out and even replaced the fixings at the back to hang it up because they were a bit shabby! Really pleased with the service and all they care they took in doing a good job. The picture now looks brand new! Would most definitely recommend! Good value for money too :)
