Our flexibility means that clients can 'mix and match' our services and do not incur costs for services that they do not need, or are capable of performing themselves.

We undertake minimal advertising and most of our new work comes from recommendations.

As an Independent Insurance Broker I am able to provide specialist advice on protection needs looking at the whole marketplace for both Individuals and Companies. My expertise concentrates specifically on the following areas:-

LIFE AND CRITICAL ILLNESS which is likely to involve Mortgage or Personal requirements for Family cover. A Business will probably require advice on Key Person protection and Partnership protection which may involve Loan repayment and Share purchase.

INCOME REPLACEMENT for accident and sickness cover in either the short or long term is an area that is often overlooked. However with the bar having now been raised to qualify for State Benefits it should be high on the priority list if someone suffered a protracted illness and wished to maintain a reasonable standard of living.

PRIVATE HEALTHCARE both for Individuals and Companies either requiring a new scheme or a review of their current cover to see whether a switch to another Provider is a worthwhile option. Speed, Quality of Care and Privacy are the main reasons why this type of cover is required.

Here at Harrowfield studio your artwork will be looked after whilst in our care. We will discuss with you how to get the best results and you will get our opinion on what will work and what will not, however you will get what you want, not what someone else wants to give you. I first started to make my own professional quality frames because I wanted to frame my own pictures. I now frame anything from a simple sketch to spiders, tee shirts or even arrows stuck one in the end of the other. If you need your picture framing, come to us in Bradfield near Manningtree and we will look after you and your artwork.

I carry stock moulding but also have the ability to create bespoke mouldings for clients wishing to be unique. Mitres are cut on a Morso mitre cutter; joints are glued then underpinned with a pneumatic underpinning machine. These two machines are essential for a perfectly mitred corner.

We can frame just about anything including photography, Oils, Acrylics, Watercolours, Textiles such as cross stitch and embroidery which are stretched before framing. And we are not limited to just two dimensional objects, we can frame articles contained in a box frame such as small sculptures, large spiders, dinky toys or old World War 2 grenades. Mounts can be single or double, plain or line washed and available in white core, conservation and museum grade.
