Civic Proframe

They don't develop black and white film. Worse: after many, many years of loyal patronage, (framing / printing / art purchases) they could not seem to care less. The response I got was no

Excellent service! They accidentally printed the same photo twice, but they printed another one free of charge. Great turn around time, very lovely people.

RIP OFF. I got 3 rolls film developed with programs, they charged me $138 and destroyed my film. The photos are horrible quality. I have previously gone to Teds Camera House, which does great quality and only charges $17/roll, which includes digitising the photos.Do not go here

About 6 months I had a photography exhibition that required some of my work to be framed. Went in store and was quoted for the work required and was told that I needed a deposit, which was fine and I was happy with that charges. It was suggested I leave my work with them as I required some prints to be installed. I organised for the deposit to be paid to find out the amount for the deposit was different to what I was orginally told and that they were unable to find the paperwork for the quote that I had recieved. I then asked where my prints were to which they replied 'I don't know' with a totally indifferent tone and I had to wait til the next day to be told where my prints were. Fast forward to today when I removed the 'glass' from one of the large frames to find that it was plastic installed in my main exhibition piece. During the discussion I had when I got quoted I asked if there was glass already in the frames or if that was an extra charge to which they explained it was included, apparently not. I paid over $1200 with this business for them to lose my work and change deposit amounts 3 days before my exhibition along with charge me $130 for a frame and fitting for it not to have glass in it. It's appalling. The only good thing I have to say is the elderly gentleman helped me put my work in my car and that they got the framing done quickly.

Fantastic service and they really know their stuff! They've got lots of framing options and Andrew helped me pick frames and mats that really bring out the character of my artwork. I've had a few pieces framed there now, won't trust anyone else with my art. Also good to know I can still get my film developed without having to mail it interstate, I think they're the last dev lab in Canberra. Highly recommend!

Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I have had just under 50 items framed by Civic Proframe over the last two years. I'm very happy with the quality of the work and for the subject matter expertise they have shared, resulting in a much better end result than would have been achieved left to my own devices/selections. Thanks from a very happy customer.

Quick turnaround of prints from 70 year old negatives for my uncles funeral, quality of the prints were fantastic, went the extra mile to photoshop out some damage and put them into frames for us so they were ready to display at the service. The staff were so helpful, very grateful.

Great staff good prices and are quick to do their job

Been doing my film here for a long time and just tried their custom framing services and really impressed, very creative and came up with a very cool look. Should say the photolab is great too, i just get films developed scan them myself but the negs I get back are cleaner than any other lab I've tried, they maintain the chemistry well.

great service and fast turnaround. Chris is the absolute master of stretching canvas and other fabrics, I've even taken a couple of my parents there to him to be re stretched properly after they went for the cheapest option in town
