Kyle is so helpful and informative... He also went out of his way, helping me with a few issues I had by contacting the company I was trying to do business with. He has so many beautiful framing options. Very pleased & will definitely go back again. read more

Amazing. Professional. Patience with the style debating "this or this?" Timely turnaround and quality work definitely means I found my next framer. Pricey? Yes, but not outrageous for quality work read more

Beautiful work done by a caring and professional man. His years of knowledge and reliability are wonderful! Trust him with your art and memories! read more

I have been there a few times over the years for big projects, but today I went in for a teeny-tiny project. He treated me just like all the other times, professionally, and gave me exactly what I needed. I have always been impressed with his work, today it was his kindness that stood out. Thank you! read more

I hadn't had art work professionally framed in quite a number of years (15 at least). So I really had no idea what sticker shock I was in for... not from Distinctive Edge, but from framing in general. With that said, Ron (the owner)was so patient, kind, and understanding as I viewed, reviewed, viewed, and reviewed again, so many different frames, mattings, etc. I honestly think I looked at least 10-15 different combinations of frames and mattes; a nod to the options available. At the end of encounter, I made a choice, scheduling 3 large prints to be double-matted and framed. Despite telling Ron of my hesitation in spending quite so much, he made sure to let me know he wouldn't be placing the order for my materials until Monday so if I changed my mind or had questions/concerns, I could just give him a call. Over the weekend, I decided to try and do a bit more due-diligence in checking other vendors pricing for comparable materials. I thought I had found something significantly cheaper at another store (all estimates using their online tools) so I called Ron and told him to cancel my order. I felt no pressure and was perfectly willing to discuss my options with Ron when I returned to pick up my prints. When I told him about the quote I got from The other store ( a chain store) he asked me several questions I couldn't answer about their pricing, materials, etc. Ron then took the time to sit with me as we called the store to ask the questions I didn't know to ask such as, were the mattes acid wash to prevent fading, the type of glass used in the frames, etc. Once we were actually comparing apples to apples, the online quote from the other store increased over $200. Now, the Distinctive Edge price and the other store were nearly identical; however, the customer service I received from Ron/Distinctive Edge, was superior and thus I again scheduled my artwork to be framed... with different frames and matting then my first order... When I tell you Ron was patient...he was really patient :-). On the downside, but really nothing major because stuff happens, there was a slight delay in getting one of my pictures done. The company sent only one set of mattes but I needed two. But, Ron called me as soon as he became aware of the delay and told me I could come in and pick up one piece or wait about an extra week and get them both at the same time. I appreciated him communicating with me so that I didn't have to call and ask where my artwork was. I opted to wait and get them both together and I was completely happy with the final product. My prints look great! I will be returning to have another one done and to have some older artwork I have reframed to bring them back to life/update them. Thanks Ron! read more

Cannot say enuf nice things about Ron and staff. Work is done in a timely efficient manner and prices are not outrageous. They know color and have loads of options to help restore or bring out colors in your piece. read more

We lost someone we loved very much, and I wanted to have some memories that we can see daily. I found Distinctive on Western in RPV from Ron the owners previous work, and his great Yelp reviews. Well, I decided to do a shadow box, and I asked for the owners expertise..... WOW, excellent work!! Really, I'll always go to him for framing and you should too! read more

We recently had a unique framing done involving a sports jersey and large image combined into one large frame. Ron took on the challenge and did a great job. read more

I'm pretty good at sticking stuff in a frame; but when I have something really special &or collectible I go straight to Distinctive Edge. Ron is very cool & is a total professional when it comes to creating an impressive presentation of your special stuff, along with the top quality work & service you expect. I've had a few tricky custom jobs that needed special multicolored matting and precision cut-outs. Ron made them 'pop'. He does great work & gets it back to in reasonable time and the prices are fair. A couple times I needed a job done quickly and he got it done by the deadline. There's some great artwork in the gallery, but what I really think is special is the collection of works, both originals & prints, by Tom Phillips, the late great Dan Pedro artist. I don't need a lot of framing but I really appreciate the service & quality I receive at Distinctive Edge and have been a return customer for almost 10 years. read more

I rely on Distinctive Edge Framing for my occasional framing needs and have always received great, professional and personable service at a great price. I am a very satisfied customer. read more

This place is not cheap, but the quality of their work is top notch. I've had them fame things for me on 3 different occasions. I have a lousy eve for picking mat colors. One of the employees, possibly the owner has been very helpful with suggestions. Everything they have done for me has exceeded my expectations as far as quality They provide all the hardware for hanging your print or picture after picking it up. All you need is a hammer. read more

Great customer service. Helped me get my picture framed in a timely manner and was very helpful in picking out what I needed and looks great. Thanks Distinctive Edge!! read more

I've always been pleased with their framing work. Items are ready at the promised time, and look beautiful. The staff is helpful but not pushy when assisting you with selecting frames and mats. I don't have the most artistic eye, so I really depend on their guidance. My employer just had some rare prints framed here, and they look fantastic. It's not cheap, but professional framing never is - and I think the prices here are quite competitive considering the level of workmanship. read more

I've been going to Distinctive Edge for them to frame all my puzzles I used to do... They take pride in every detail of their work. They showed me ideas I would have never considered... Lately years later we took my fiancé's son's UCSB diploma for framing and the results were simply ahhhhmazing. Ron, you outdid yourself once again. We will see you soon. read more

Ron is very knowledgeable, and also willing to go the extra mile to get the job done right. Fair pricing for quality work!

Distinctive Edge is a local neighborhood shop that has a warm and friendly but upscale elegant atmosphere. We took a couple pictures that were damaged in a storage unit which had roof issues. The pictures were in horrible condition and some rain and a lot of dirt were the culprits. We considered throwing all of them away. They had sentimental value so we decided to take them to Distinctive Edge to see if they could be salvaged. Ron was so gracious and helpful as he reviewed each piece and gave us his professional opinion and our options. We decided to let go of two of them. However, the others, Ron was able to cleanup, repair and replace the glass on the frames restoring them to pretty near like new condition. When we first saw them we were amazed how nice they looked. We were so happy with the finished results. Several months later we acquired a piece of art from a notable gallery that needed to be framed. We are not experts and we knew we were going to need the help of someone who really knew what they were doing. Distinctive Edge was our first choice for framing. Again, Ron was amazingly patient and helpful and helped us select a frame and a double mat that really compliments our newly acquired art. This is our go-to place and I highly recommend Distinctive Edge for framing. His prices are reasonable and well worth every penny for the exquisite work and finished product that you will receive. read more

I've been using Distinctive Edge for years both with my business and at home. Ron always gives great advice about colors and frames. Excellent quality work. read more

Excellent custom framing! Worth every penny. After visiting several framing shops I found Ron. He is amazing, very helpful in choosing mat colors and a frame for my unique cross stitch project for my son's wedding. I will definitely come back for my other projects. Thanks Ron! read more

Ron did a great job helping me with a custom shadow box for an extremely valuable family heirloom. He's not cheap, but he's worth it.

Friendly customer service, great selection and a long-time supporter of the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium!

I've been going to Distinctive Edge for years now. The staff is friendly and helpful. The quality is top notch. They can frame just about anything! They have a much better eye than I do, and have made suggestions that I would have never thought of. I've gone to places like Aaron Bros. and they are not that much cheaper and the quality is not as good. I highly recommend. read more

What happens when you bring in a free poster from a nature center in Montana to an expert framer? Art happens! Ron at Distinctive Edge spent about 30 minutes helping me choose the right combination of frame and mat to transform my poster into a beautiful display. He was funny and thoughtful and completely professional. He encouraged me take as much time as I needed, and laid out many options for me until we found a winning combination. The finished job was so much more beautiful than I could have imagined. If you want a professional frame job, run to Distinctive Edge. You won't regret it. read more

I was really happy with the service I had here. It wasn't finished exactly when it was said to be, but regardless, it was professional and a great gift. Great quality, great product. Helpful and courteous staff. read more

My go to place for picture framing!!! Ron has a wonderful eye and is always so helpful. I have taken many things there to have them framed and it is always done right the first time. They have me spoiled! Will never go anywhere else. Old school one on one service, top notch and professional. Blessings... read more

This is a great local business. Friendly service and decent prices.

The owner of this establishment is rude. I entered the shop with a diploma that needed framing and he continued to talk with two friends for the span of two minutes completely ignoring me. I tried to make eye contact with him but he continued talking about Italain surnames with his friends. I was just a few feet away and was trying to be respectful by not interrupting him. I finally walked out and was hoping he would take notice and perhaps call me back in but he didn't. read more
