Lakeview Rubber Stamp Company

I needed same day rubber stamps for my business and I found Lakeview Rubber Stamp through Google and Unilocal.From the first phone call, Terry was very helpful in letting me know he could do the job that day, what the charges would likely be and what specific files types I needed to provide to get the best results. I emailed my graphic designer who kicked out the logo and type in an hour and I had everything to Terry by 2:30P. I swung by his shop to test out similar sized stamps to make sure they would work for my application.
He had my stamps done by 4:30P that afternoon! 2 hour turnaround! Terry was incredibly helpful and accommodating and I love the stamps as much as you can love a stamp. :)
I can’t recommend Terry and Lakeview Rubber Stamp enough. Great business and great business owner. He gets it and knows how to take care of a customer’s needs quickly and efficiently.

Terry is the best. I needed a simple, self-​inking stamp for a festival. He walked me through the options and had it turned around in 3 business days. It’s so great to have a reliable neighborhood source. I will definitely be referring other small businesses here. Thanks Lakeview Stamp!

The stamps I’d ordered from some online company turned out to be completely shoddy and unusable, so I found this place via the Unilocal reviews. They’re spot on. Terry was very helpful (went back and forth with me via email on the PDF designs), kept me updated via phone calls about his progress, and had the stamps ready within a week (at a cheaper rate than I’d paid the online company!). I just spent a couple of hours tonight using both stamps to make save-​the-​dates (and, if I dare say so, they look pretty cool). So, yeah, I highly recommend this place — the price is right, the service is friendly and professional, and the quality is A++.

We recently ordered several large stamps from Terry for use on our wedding invitations. Terry made sure to advise us on the costs of large stamps, and the details behind getting stamp pads large enough to use with the stamps we ordered. The stamp pad he found for us worked out so well, and made things so much easier. Terry is quite knowledgeable and willing to share his expertise, and takes the time to
educate customers on the proper use of the materials. It really makes all the difference and will keep me coming back.
Everyone loved our invitations, and we couldn’t have done them so well
without Terry and his dedication to his craft.

Received a stamp from here as a gift from a very creative and thoughful friend — was excellent — I will be coming here for sure to get any stamps I need in the future!

Terry runs an outstanding operation. He understands that customer service is his best way to attract and retain customers. I commissioned a signature stamp and he gave me a price that was competitive with the online stores and had it in my hands 24 hours after providing him the sample signature. My company will use no other stamp provider from here on out. Thanks, Terry.

I had a great experience here with Terry at Lakeview Rubber Stamp Company. He made my first rubber stamp process very easy and responded promptly to my calls and requests. I just sent my PDF, gave him my spec and picked up my stamps. I will definitely be back again. Thanks!

We’ve worked with Terry on making several custom stamps over the last few years. They’ve always turned out great and he has a quick turn around time (within a few days). His pricing is very reasonable as well.
It’s best to give him a call and discuss the details of your project, and then he’ll look for your email and you’ll have a new stamp before you know it! He’s great at trouble shooting as well in case your graphic needs to be adjusted to make a better impression.

Terry, the owner, is very knowledgeable about the making and the history of stamping. He’s got drawers of old molds and forms for stamps done the old fashioned, engraved way. However, now everything is computerized and digital. Most of the business comes from business stamps but Lakeview Rubber Stamp Company hooked me up with a small rubber stamp from an image I sent over. It turned out well and was very reasonably priced. At least as cheap and fast as an online manufacturer, and with personal advice and service. Terry even agreed to drop off the stamp down the street at my request, because he’s only open 9 — 5 weekdays. That is the only drawback, that and his email communication is not the lightning speed, that you might get from an online stamp company. However, I have tried another online stamp maker and they were just as home grown, just somewhere else.
Overall, I like buying local and my whole project was about Lincoln Square and North Center so I liked my experience with Lakeview Rubber Stamp Company.
