I've had luck in the past taking pictures frames to my local Michael's in Westchester, but now that I'm up here, I wanted to support a small business. Valentina Custom Frame & G. on Main St in New Paltz has its own parking lot- which makes it super easy if you can't find any parking on the strip. Between modern, rustic, wood, ornate and other frame styles, this small shop, showcases at least 100, 200+ (if not more) samples to choose from. Valentina aims to please because the moment I came here with a desperate look on my face and showed her the frame, she eased my worries and explained what how she'll fix it. At $25 to fix my frame- not only did I get a banging deal and she brought my frame back to life- but she's professional and passionate about all things frames.

Valentina took the time to understand what I was looking for and walked me through the various…read moreoptions. One item I wanted framed was the embroidered section of a pillow my mom had made. She was able to extract that section and insert it into a beautiful frame that highlights the embroidery. The quality of the frames and the framing itself is fantastic and clearly above what you would find if you tried to do it yourself or went to a Michael's. Plus I now have the peace of mind that my mom's artwork is preserved forever.

Moreover I had to go out of town the next four days. JRM LLC took my phone call when I was out of town and went to the house immediately to make an estimate. They clearly explained what had to be done and why. The next day they had a crew there doing an emergency job. The rate charged was fair. Communication was excellent by phone and by smartphone photos. When we returned home we saw the work quality was outstanding. Rock solid. The deck repair looked better even than before it was broken! They even matched the paint accurately.

He…read morestarted the work - and after paying him approx 20,000, we started to notice that no one was coming to the house to conduct any work. It took a very long time for him to get back to us and he told us that he was sorry - his son was dealing with some type of issue and he could not finish the work. He did not give us the money back and said he had used all the money to buy the kitchen shelving. Kitchen shelving was ordered - but it was all the wrong sizes! We of course had to hire a new contractor who was unable to use the shelving ordered by Anthony's company as the measurements were completely off. We never received any money back - please heed this warning and stay far away.
