RED HOUSE
CUSTOM PICTURE
FRAMING
We Recycle. Always Have.
Since 1998, Red House Custom Picture Framing has provided quality framing for all works of art, posters, photographs, textiles and keepsakes. Owner, Erin Watkinson, is CPF Certified which ensures you will receive a high level of professionalism recognized by the framing industry.
Custom framing can often be fairly involved. For example, when framing any item, regardless of its value, proper mounting techniques are crucial. From adjusting time, temperature, moisture and pressure for basic drymounting to cooking wheat starch paste for the application of Japanese hinges on more valuable pieces, we can do it for you. Sound Greek? Well, that's ok. There's a lot to know and that's what we're here for.
Please feel comfortable asking any questions you may have.
We offer thousands of premium mouldings from companies such as:
Larson-Juhl http://www.larsonjuhl.com/
Nurre Caxton http://www.nurrecaxton.com/
AMPF ttp://www.ampfframes.com/index.html
Picture Woods www.picturewoods.com
We use museum grade matboards and mounting substrates (many made from cotton linters, a replenishable resource) from:
Bainbridge http://www.nielsen-bainbridge.com/Bainbridge/NB-ArtcareTOC.html
Crescent ttp://www.crescentcardboard.com/
We offer a full line of glazing products. Tru Vue's Conservation Clear is our default glass of choice for its ability to block 97% of damaging UV rays. However, there are several glazing options for you to choose from to best suit your needs.
