I had my grandad's war medals mounted and they look amazing. I am really pleased with the finished piece. Thank you

Mill House Framing Studio in Parbold is quite a trek for us but always worth the effort. They spare no effort to help us and the end product is invariably top class. They're a pleasure to deal with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I've used Mill House Framing Studio in Standish twice now, and i am delighted with the quality of the workmanship. There are many styles of frames to choose from that vary in price, and the gentleman that runs the shop is always helpful and does an excellent job. I would most definitely recommend this place to anyone who appreciates quality and style for their family photos and paintings.

Had a consultation with Jamie as to the best frames for my prints from the wide variety available. Collected them on Friday 9th September 2023 and I’m absolutely thrilled with the results. Highly recommend this lovely friendly gallery set in the most beautiful surroundings. No job too small. Thank you!

I recently had a football T-Shirt framed and a football mounted in a glass box both were excellently done to a very high standard. I have had other items framed and would always use Mill House. Very friendly and helpful staff always happy to oblige
