“I’ve used Lee Heckman Custom Framing for photographs, artwork, prints, lithographs, and diplomas. They have a tremendous selection of mats and frame. Lee has decades of experience and an artistic eye and he takes his time to help you find perfect combination of colors and textures to showcase whatever you want to display. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”

“Over the past ten years or so, Lee and his staff have framed many items for us, everything from paintings to photos. Each time we pick up a newly completed print or picture, it feels like a holiday – we are so excited to see the final result! We know it will be wonderful, but the work always exceeds our expectations. The materials used are of the highest quality and the workmanship is remarkable. The turnaround time is remarkably fast. Obviously, Lee and his staff of skilled craftsmen and craftswomen are perfectionists – the finished product is the proof. Since we originally worked with Lee, we have moved from Mt. Lebanon. Although it is now a bit of a drive for us, this is the only place we’d consider having this work done.”

“My sister-in-law brought us this print as a gift from Guatemala. I went to Lee Heckman Custom Framing hoping to find a frame that would capture the magic and uniqueness of this piece. Lee worked tirelessly with me and with input from his incredible staff, we settled on not one, but a combination of frames. The gold inner frame captured beautifully the spiritual, almost surreal feel of the piece, while the wood outer frame reconnects to earth and nature. We have had many items framed by Lee Heckman over the years, and we are always awed by the skill, artistry and expertise in the finished product.  We are customers for life!”

“This shop is excellent. Needed a custom frame job and they came through. Their frame suggestion was perfect. The timeliness and quality of the finished item were excellent. They handled one adjustment quickly and politely. Cost and quality go hand in hand so don’t expect Michael’s pricing. It’s easy to see why they have been around so long.

“I would highly recommend Lee Heckman Custom Framing. I had an inexpensive picture that I bought on clearance. I broke the glass by accident and Mr. Heckman repaired it and made it look like a very expensive picture. Wonderful people to work with and the price was very reasonable.”

Judy G.

“Absolutely gorgeous frame that goes with the picture perfectly!!! I came in July (2013) with a non standard proportion large photograph print. With the help of the staff I picked out what I thought was going to be a gorgeous job! …They are very nice and pleasant…. All in all I got an AMAZING product for probably a fraction of the price!”

Julie M.

“I had a positive experience with Lee Heckman. I needed something framed at the last minute, and within extremely precise parameters (that weren’t easy to abide by), and they not only got the work done correctly and on time, but at a reasonable price.

The staff is a little gruff, but not at all unfriendly, and I am happy to have found a local shop that I will return to.”
