Frank Signs - Perfect after shot. Honest, integrity, fast , and friendly - Signmaking Near Me - Seaside, California

Frank is awesome. He painted a few signs for my business and custom painted a friends kegerator. Everyone who's seen said kegerator thinks its sticker decal which is an insult, but speaks to his precision pin striping. Super cool and easy to work with to assure you get exactly what you want. Highly recommend Frank if you are looking for 1 of a kind Custom Hand Painted Signs. I think he does printed and mounted stuff too but call Frank up to confirm. read more

I wouldn't bother with this place. The owner's personality changes from good to belligerent on a day to day basis and he isn't particularly concerned about the whole stupid idea of people being happy with their signs. Sometimes the signs come out well. Sometimes not. Either way, don't expect any help or assistance after the sale. read more

The phone number posted is out of service, he has had my stuff/order for about 6 months and is never there when I go by. I will never do business with him again. read more

Frank is an excellent sign maker and pinstriper/airbrush artist. I ought to know because I taught him the business back in the 1980's. Frank has also learned much more on his own and from many other excellent artists. In many ways he is more skilled than I am. His versatility and tedious attention to detail are unmatched in the Monterey Bay Area. Doing things by hand is extremely difficult and takes serious discipline. He doesn't have a computerized C and C machine to do his 3 dimensional wood signs, although he has access to one, within his many friends in the sign making community. He dosn't have a "sticker machine". Many people who question Frank's temperment have called him "unapproachable" and "belligerent". These are customers who don't have the knowledge of how the sign business works. He takes abuse from these people every day. Usually over pricing, time constraints and even poor designs from the customer. When Frank says "it won't work"...that means it won't work. In my 50+ years of being in the sign business as well as 23 years of the tattoo business, I have just as much difficulty dealing with people who ask me the same question 10 different ways to get the answer they want when the answer is "NO, IT WON'T WORK!" In the, "I want in now", computer age, most people have no idea how the signmaking process works. Frank takes great care to help them understand, yet they persist in getting a "no problem" answer no matter how much intense difficulty and impossibility their idea presents .Many customers expect these labor intensive projects for next to nothing. Frank Signs is not a cheap mass production sign shop like Office Depot or Signs R Us. I've seen and experienced these arguments first hand and they JUST DON'T GET IT! These are hand crafted signs with real materials like 24k gold, solid wood and not imitation materials. Hand painted signs take time....period. Frank's biggest challenge is getting CUSTOMERS to do what they say they are going to do. Examples: 1...PAY HIM ON TIME. 2. Drop off their trucks and cars on time and clean (many trucks are delivered late and caked with mud or old , sun caked vinyl). 3. Pick up their projects on time clearing his shop for other projects. 4. Asking him to do difficult work for next to nothing which would take HOURS of his time delaying other projects. 5. Complaining about prices of projects which are labor intensive and materially expensive while they brag about how much money they make in their respective businesses. 6. Expecting Frank to drop everything for their project forsaking all his other customers. 7. Being disrespectful calling Frank a "thief". 8. Receiving unworkable artwork from customers that takes hours to rework on the computer. 9. Hanging over Frank's shoulder while working interfereing with Frank's ability to concentrate on a difficult project and wasting his time. So, when you visit Franks Signs, please leave your pre-concieved notions about what you think you know about the "REAL" sign business and come in with an open mind and a good attitude. Be prepared to pay a fair price and be prepared for Frank to be Frank. He'll tell you like it is. After more than 30 years of being in the sign business Frank deserves your respect. He is very good at what he does and he takes abuse from customers every day. Common sense says "you get what you pay for". After 30+years of being abused by beligerent, demanding,ignorant customers, Frank himself says, "you get what you deserve". In the words of a close friend.....Don't be a dick....be a dude. You will be treated fairly and professionally. read more
