Kind Words from our Customers

I have ordered from The Silver Shingle for a few years and every time I am met with such professionalism, helpfulness and enthusiasm from Tania. Thank you so much to you and your team for providing such wonderful customer care and a beautiful product.
— Laura Love, Executive Director @ Powell River Historical Museum & Archives Association

“I'm very impressed and pleased with the results of the photo imaging, many thanks! The reflective quality of the metal gives them a sense of being animated that is an intriguing contrast to their solid durability and sense of permanence. I'll certainly keep my eye open for other possible good photos that would be suitable for this transformation.

~ Jim Montgomery

“I picked up my order and want to thank you so much for your expertise.  I know you had a difficult photo to work with. The first recipient (my husband who was in the far right) was so thrilled.  I can’t wait for the reactions of my in-laws.  Their copies are going in the Christmas cards. I truly appreciate all you did.  It will make my family’s memories of such a special day last forever.

“The Silver Shingle works that Tania produces are extraordinary. Select photos from our friend’s wedding were transformed from beautiful coloured prints to silver, black and white images evoking a completely different set of emotions with a completely different sense of time and place. Our friends loved them and couldn’t stop looking at them. These pieces will last a very long time and be passed on from generation to generation.

~ Melodie Benger

“I was very intrigued by the technology and unique look of the photos. I had some family photos done for my wife for Christmas; and when I received my order, I was so impressed I ordered metal photos for the rest of my family Christmas presents. They were a hit. Tania’s quick response to squeeze the order in before Christmas was great.

~ Bruce Norman

“When I saw The Silver Shingle’s display at our community centre I knew straight away I had to ask them to show off my wife’s photography.  The technology gives photos a strong sense of permanence and subtle glory.  Tania understood what I wanted and gave great advice, followed by expert and appropriate photo manipulation, quick service, and beautifully printed photos.

~ Tom Haythornthwaite

“I sense you put extra time into the plaque. Certainly there was a lot of back and forth and you responded quickly and were easy to work with throughout. Please accept this little token of my appreciation for it all {box of chocolates}. I’m pretty confident the plaque will be well received and cherished for a very long time.

~ Louise J.

“Our family planted a memorial tree for our Grandbaby. We wanted a beautiful, long lasting plaque to place beside the tree. We also wanted to support a small local business. The plaque means so much to us and will be a lasting memorial to our little Grandbaby.

~ Shirley Fulton-Deugo

~ Corey Logan (via Facebook)

~ Patrice F.

“We chose photosensitive anodized aluminum for the QR code signs at Canada’s first municipal geoheritage park because this unique product met our all-season needs for signage that's resistant to damage, doesn’t fade in sunlight, and won’t delaminate. It's been one year since they were installed and, after enduring the harshness of all four Canadian seasons, they look as good as the day they were installed. It was a pleasure to work with The Silver Shingle team for the design, production, and installation of our outdoor signage.

~ Metcalfe Geoheritage Park Committee, Almonte, Ontario

“I received the memorial tree plaque in the mail yesterday.  Thanks very much, it's beautiful. Thanks for all it took of you to create this piece.

~ Lindsay​ S.

“Just wanted to thank you for the wonderful plaque you made up for the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists' bird viewing shelter. I can't wait to show the girls. Thank you so much! It is truly beautiful.

~ Peggy McPhail

“The tree memorial plaque was delivered to the group at work and it was very warmly received and admired. There were in fact a few teary eyes in the group. Once again thank you for your work in producing a beautiful tribute to our friend and colleague.

~ Brian Mullin

“A beautiful sign was created by The Silver Shingle to honour donors of the MERA stone labyrinth. Tania Marsh was very responsive and sensitive to the values of MERA members in designing the sign.

~ MERA Board (McDonalds Corners/Elphin Recreation and Arts)

“The cliffLAND interpretative trail signs are a unique combination of art, history, and nature producing a treasure that is both beautiful and practical.

~ Linda Hansen, (former) Township of Lanark Highlands Councillor

“We spent some time on the weekend deciding where and how to hang our pictures and have created a wall of “silver shingles” and they look great. You took some of our fondest memories and made them into something truly remarkable. All the photos came out fantastic.

“Thank you so much, they all look wonderful and I can’t wait to hear back from our family once they receive them for Christmas. I’m sure we’ll be in touch about more, our “silver shingle” wall needs a couple more!

~ Jackie Menard

“We are truly impressed with The Silver Shingle’s customized work, capturing timeless memories in a very unique manner. This is the second piece we have purchased, and have no doubt we’ll be using The Silver Shingle for many more family memories’ projects. Thank you so much.

~ Jason & Samantha Ross

“I custom ordered several Christmas ornaments made of metal, after finding cute pictures of my kids and historic photos of our old cottage. They turned out amazing. My kids loved them. So unique! Quite the topic of many a conversation around the tree this year! Thank you Tania, for making such beautiful pieces of artwork that will be able to stay in our family for years!

~ Taina Sodonis

“The plaques, one for the front door and one for the garden, both turned out great thanks to the design work you did for us. Everyone is impressed by the technology used to make them. Thank you for getting them to us so quickly as they were a Christmas present.
