Can anyone recommend a good place to get A3 prints done? I have been recommended DS Colour labs and Cewe PhotoWorld.

At the moment I print on my Canon IP4500 for 7 x 5 and A4 but will need to start using a printing company as the volume of work is building up.

Also can anyone recommend a good place for Canvas Prints and Canvas Montage Prints?
 
togsprint.com who, I believe offer a discount for TP members.
For canvas prints I've used canvasrus.co.uk. Good prices and quality.

Yes, 10%

I have used them, had a canvas framed in portrait and not landscape (by mistake). The problem was rectified and a new canvas sent out ASAP. Received 3 days later...

Personal (I believe) how a company deals with things when they go wrong is a very good indicator of the type of company, staff and customer service policies they have. I was very impressed with how the issue was dealt with and will definitely be a return customer :D

BTW - prints were great! Never thought my photos would look so good :)
 
Loxleys in Scotland. Pro Lab with brilliant prints and an excellent customer service!

I have tried http://photo-canvas.com/ and photobox and will do go to photo canvas any day. The quality is outstanding. The image itself is printed into fabric so it looks way much better than all those inkjet prints on coated canvases that majority of the other canvas printers are supplying. As such it does not seem to be affected by age: does not crack on edges, seems to retain image quite well - mine is hanging there on a wall outside all day lit window for a year now and still looks as when it first arrived (not fading or anything). They also do proper B/W - the one I got has no cast and is really outstanding. I also liked their frames better - you can stretch it more if over time the canvas starts to sag slightly (using wedges in a frames).

I'm planning to use them a bit more this year having tried the others and didn't like the results...

^^^^

Although you have to download their software and set up an account it is far easier to sort, size and send prints off once you have. Also their quality is far and away better than Photobox (for a very similar, if not cheaper price).:)
 
Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I found CanvasDezign a while ago but not used them yet. Has anyone used them?
 
Edit: Bummer - didn't realised it was the old thread to which I already replied
 
I used Lee last time at TogsPrint. Excellent service, advice and fast turnaround.
