LF: Framing store

[tete]

We bought an oil painting in Costa Rica that was shipped to us rolled and now we need a very experienced store that can carefully unroll it and restretch it onto a frame. It's only been in the country for four days and we already can feel it starting to dry out. I don't want to take this to a place like Michael's, I want someone who can deal with a massive humidity change to canvas/oil paintings. Preferably a place in central Calgary (shallow SE/SW/NE/NW), but are willing to drive a bit for a good place.

I've used James at Corner Framing at 3713 17 Ave SW for 10 years

I used a place in Avenida a few years back to get my wife a framed pic of her dad as a younger Bowness police officer along with his badge.

They did excellent work but it was a bit pricy...

Thanks - we took it to 17 Ave framing and found out that it needs an odd size stretcher bar that basically nobody carries, so we are sending it to my husband's brother in Winnipeg to custom frame for us (he's framed all of our other stuff, but doesn't do it as much anymore). I'll keep these recos in mind, though, as I do have another print that does need to be framed (that is an easy job).
