Our levels of service |
 |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Genius Printing offers two levels of service - Standard and Professional.
For most orders, the Standard Service is the way to go. All your questions can be answered by reading our website, you can chat to our live support staff, or call us to ask questions about our products and services. All options such as scanning, low DPI upsizing, etc are available through the Standard Service.
However, if the answer to your question isn't on our website or you want to do something that the Smart Uploader (our online ordering system) can't do, then it's likely you'll need the Professional Service. For only 15% more you get a dedicated specialist who will work in the way you want to get the result you want. That's still 22% lower than the average canvas price of our competitors and a far better service because we/'ll get really involved with offering suggestions and helping you build on your ideas.
So, the difference is not in the options available, or the quality of materials, but in the service level. You select the level of service when you place an order or simply call us to request the Professional Service. We'll also let you know if you'll need the Professional Service to get the result you want.

Instant Online Proof

Choice of 4 wrapping types
|
|
|
|
Genius Printing offers 4 wrapping styles on stretched canvases: A standard Gallery Wrap, Genius Wrap™ (Mirror Wrap), No Wrap, or Pixel Bleed™

Any wrapping type you like
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, on a stretched canvas, a custom wrap is required. For example, a Genius Wrap™ may work well for all but the top edge of the image. In this case we'd manually create the wrap for the best result.

Image manipulation
|
|
|
|
In addition to the image manipulation options as part of the Standard level of service, our graphic designers will double-check your selections and make advanced manual changes such as adjusting the colour levels, if required.
We can also quote on touching up portions of the image, or performing any creative work you ask for.
If there's anything you didn't ask for that we think is a good idea, we'll run it by you first and then do that as well.

Stretched Canvas Frames - Standard
|
|
|
|
We use only kiln-dried, Eco-select, hardwood, that does not leach tannins (tannic acid). We also use bevelled stretcher bars to make sure the frames don't create a visible impression on your canvas.
