What our Customers say about Bella Becho...

I had a wonderful experience with Deborah! The book that she made for me was custom with attention to detail for a very special occasion. Thank you Deborah! I will be back! (Yellow Pages Review – 5 stars)

Thank you so much for the journal you created for our outgoing president. When she opened her gift, there were gasps from all the other ladies in the room. It was truly beautiful and so unique. The craftsmanship was perfect and the dedication page made this a gift she will treasure forever. I had many women rush over to ask where I had found such an amazing journal. I will definitely be back to purchase more, and I’m sure many from my organization will as well!

Our home was flooded during Hurricane Harvey and my husbands family bible was a casualty. so I started looking online for a book bindery and read the reviews for Bella Becho and decided to give them a try. I called and spoke to a staff member who was so courteous, I explained my situation and she assured me that our bible was not the first they were rebinding due to flooding. I brought the bible in and was told exactly what they could do and what to expect, which I appreciated. Well, when I picked the bible up, the binding was beautiful and I was so pleased with the result. I would definitely recommend. I promise you won’t be disappointed. (Google and Yelp 5 star review)

“I … have driven past this place a million times.  I was really excited when I finally had a reason to go in.  So happy I did!  I was looking to personalize a small children’s bible for a baptism.  Deborah helped me pick out all the customization…  The result will surely be a lifelong keepsake for my sweet godchild.  I definitely recommend entrusting Bella Becho with any of books or projects.”

Spectacular work and easy to work with. Got the spine replaced on my grandfather’s bible . I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work done right. (Google 5 star review)

“Could not be happier with the craftsmanship in the restoration of my well worn Bible. Thanks for such beautiful work!!”

Once upon a time there was A baby book That traveled the life Of a girl Born in 1949 From the day she as born Each detail Carefully Inked In black and white Polaroids Brownie camera When the girl was almost 70 She found Among the tossed aside The detailed manuscript Of her years gone by A bookbindery Rescued The yellowed pages And brought back The years Lost Back to life She sobbed Every detail Scripted In perfect cursive- LGH For Grace (5 Star Yelp Review)

I researched several binderies to restore our family bible that was from the 1800’s. Once I spoke to Bella Becho I was certain they were the best people to handle this project. I received several e-mails regarding their basic restoration work and pricing. I also spoke to them several times before sending the bible to be sure that I understood the process of the restoration. Once they received the bible, they inspected it to see what work was needed. I received a call from them to discuss everything that needed to be repaired and pricing. They also told me about some things that I would not have known about that were important to repair to maintain the integrity of our bible. We had it restored to it’s original form and it came out beautiful. I would highly recommend Bella Becho for Bible Repair.

I only echo the other testimonials that I see here. My mother’s Dickson Bible (her old one) was in my sister’s garage after Mother passed away, and I asked her what she was going to do with it (it was in terrible condition…don’t know how long it had been in the garage, moved around several times with my sister’s family, and generally, neglected, and abused.) I had heard of Bella Becho through a friend and I called and set up an appointment to send my mother’s Bible to them to see if it could be restored (made into a useable condition.) I sent it in, and though, it wasn’t cheap, I wanted it done. When I received it back, I as amazed at the transformation! I am using it now in my studies and reading.
Thank you Bella Becho for your outstanding work!!!

Thank you for rebinding my study bible.  Your suggestion of adding my name under my grandmother’s name was a great idea. I will be passing this bible on to my newborn grand baby! I hope she receives as much joy and light as I have.  Bless you.

Our Executives were very happy with the final product. No doubt, I will be giving you a call with future needs.  Thank you again for being so flexible.

My wife and I sent our 33 year old wedding album cover to Bella Becho Book Bindery (i.e., Deborah and Team) for an extensive rehab. The original cover (faux leather) deteriorated and essentially rendered our treasured wedding album not user/handling friendly. The cover was refurbished with top grain cowhide from Italy, and embossed to match our original cover (actually “exceeded” the quality of our original cover). The final work product was fantastic. Customer service was top notch and professional. Our wedding album is no longer shoved into the back of the closet sticking to everything around it (I think it was the cause of our missing cat in 2005 – kidding). Sincerely, I highly recommend Bella Becho Book Bindery for anything related to book refurbishment and more!

Debbie is a pleasure to work with and her work is impeccable! Our album had a defective “leather” that became sticky and Bella Becho redid the cover and inside covers; the album looks gorgeous! Thank you!

I was overjoyed when I received our restored old family bible. Some places would not save the beautiful cover. You were able to & did such a beautiful job on it & the back & spine which was all to pieces. It was all rebound beautifully with restored torn pages. This bible weighs 13 lbs. & had more information & pictures in it than I have ever seen in a bible. It was important to us to save it. Your staff was so friendly. I would definitely recommend Bella Becho to everyone.

I couldn’t be happier that I chose Bella Becho to repair and re-bind my beloved study bible! Deborah explained the options and what would be done to complete the repair. She had a large assortment of material and color choices, of fonts and design embossments. Most of all, she treated my bible as something dear to me, not just another project. It’s clear that books hold a special place in the heart of this company and its people.

I took these two books to Bella Becho. The family Bible was held together with a cardboard cover and string. I trusted Bella Becho with these treasures, and they treated them with love and respect. I could not be more pleased with the work they did to preserve our books. I have two more to bring in! A special thank you to Deborah and Gina!

Every aspect and step along this process of replacing our very sticky, unusable and 32 yr old wedding album was perfect.

The feel of a family run business started on the 1st phone call. They helped us choose the color and replacement material.

When the new album arrived we were tickled and extremely pleased. Would recommend Bella Becho to anybody. You will be very happy with the choice.

Dictionary Restoration

Deborah and her team are nothing short of miracle-workers.
There aren’t enough accolades to describe the restoration that they achieved with an heirloom 1935 Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary that my father had as a child. Both the front cover and spine were torn off and gone. Several of the onion skin pages were torn. It had been on my parents and then, our shelves for half a century. We were prepared to throw it away because of its seemingly unredeemable condition.
And then, we discovered the artistry of Deborah and her team at Bella Becho.
Wow, what a transformation. They were able to formulate a new, custom cover and spine which perfectly replicated the original.
What had become a useless dust collector in one of our drawers has been transformed into a work of art in display on our living room Coffee.
Whatever your book restoration project may be. No matter how daunting you believe the project to be.
Just turn it over to the masters at Bella Becho.
You will be amazed at the results.
BRAVO Deborah!!

I took my most cherished Bible to Bella Becho that I use in my ministry everyday. I have had it since the early 1970’s and it was falling apart. I was very nervous to part with it, as it has decades of my notes written in the margins, and I don’t even want to think about losing it! They did the most incredible job, and it looks brand new, in fact better than the original! And they were able to do it in a way that I can still read my notes that are written right close to the center binding! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I would not hesitate to recommend Bella Becho for all your book binding needs, and particularly your most important and cherished books that need to be restored. I rate them a 10++++., and I recommend them to you without hesitation.

I’m thoroughly pleased with the finished product. The look and feel of my Bible is exquisite. This is my favorite Bible and the original cover was dilapidated and worn. At one point, I believed the Bible had to cease to continue to use it. It’s almost like I have a brand new Bible. I couldn’t be happier because this particular Bible is no longer sold.

A beautiful job! Had our wedding album cover replaced with a genuine cowhide material. It looks very nice, and we are pleased with the quality and workmanship.

Everyone at Bella Becho worked tirelessly and patiently with me as they took my original work, formatted it, and allowed me to personally edit, in order to prepare a beautiful genealogy book for my family after ten years of research. The final product was so impressive, with an eye-catching cover design, and beautiful glossy paper inside which made all the pictures stand out on each page. I will continue recommending them to others for their caring professionalism.

Four months ago Bella Becho rebound my Bible. I’ve read it almost daily for years, as did my grandmother when it was hers. It needed a lot of repair work. Each day since they completed the amazing work they did to restore the Bible, the new cover, the repaired pages, etc. I have enjoyed every detail that they gave so much attention to. Thank you Bella Becho. I highly recommend Bella Becho.

“I couldn’t wait to show my Bible to my family today. It is so beautiful since you remade it. I cried when I got in the car and looked through it. It is exactly what I wanted.  Thank you so much”

This was my second opportunity to work with this firm–a family Bible and my dissertation. Both required creative design and consummate skill. I could not be more delighted with both keepsakes.

Our wedding album binder was damaged by mildew in a problem with a damp basement caused by some flooding when a pipe burst last fall of 2019. I called Bella Becho and talked to Deborah, she was so helpful and knew exactly how to handle my problem and went over the process of what they would be doing to repair my wedding binder back to it’s original glory, she went over the cost and options for shipping just really covered everything so efficiently . It took about 6 weeks as I was told and when it was shipped Deborah emailed me with the info and shipping # so I could track the delivery,when it arrived 3 days later I was blown away by the new overhauled binder , it was beautiful ! Thank you so much Deborah to you and your team of professionals , I would highly recommend your company to anyone ! Thanks Again, gratefully,. Ridge Boynton

“This place is amazing!!! I had my aunt give me a Catholic Missal that my great-grandmother owned that was half in Latin and half in English. I’m the only person in my family that is Catholic. It was in very rough shape.
The lady who must own the company was so sweet and nice to me. She appreciated the history behind the book. They grafted my old cover on top of a new cover and integrated everything. It is amazing and I am so appreciate of everything they did and how helpful and how knowledgeable they are…They’re an amazing story with amazing people who work for them. Thank you Bella Becho for saving my Catholic Missal from 1950!” (Google 5 Star Rating)

Bella Becho has recovered and rebound 3 books for me. Each book had notes written in all 4 margins. The Binder successfully rebound and recovered each book saving the notes so I can still read them. Amazing, quality work. I would trust them with any book.

“Deborah,

Happy New Year! You and your people did a wonderful job on our Bible.  Thank you very much!”

“Happy New Year to ya’ll. Thank you so much for the before and after photos. Ya’ll are awesome !!!”

Since our Christian Book Store had closed, I searched all over to find someone who could personalize the Bible we were giving our son and his bride for a wedding gift. I found Bellabecho online and called them. They were so kind and helpful making sure the process and every detail would be successful and be what we had envisioned. Time was getting short, but they hurried to make it happen quickly, communicating often to ease my mind. The blind debossing method was used, as recommended. Their expertise turned out a beautiful result and we were able to have it just in time for the wedding, as promised!

I recently (Jan 2020) had my album repaired. It had a covering that had turned sticky and it seems there was a history of this occurring with this album from 1983. Bella Becho company made it so easy for me to send my album from Indiana to Texas and order a repair of my album. Staff at Bella Becho were so polite and clear in their instructions. I really appreciate this because I was nervous about sending my wedding album off to Texas. My new repaired album is exactly the way that I ordered it and I am 100% satisfied and highly recommend this company to everyone.

My wife and I have been married for 25 years. We’ve only looked at our wedding Album a few times over the years. We were totally upset to see the condition of our wedding album cover condition due to the poor quality of the original cover. Not knowing where to turn we looked on the Internet, and contacted the folks at Bella. Deborah was great over the phone explaining the process, and how long it would take in production to turn the album around. I couldn’t believe the before and after when we received final product. The new cover feels, and looks so much better, and super sturdy. We would highly recommend the services from Bella Becho!

Bella Becho restored our 1985 wedding book cover and the transformation is amazing! The leather, workmanship and advice were outstanding. Our wedding book is such a family treasure, with pictures of so many family members who are now passed. Bella Becho transformed the sticky, disintegrating and discolored binder into a beautiful, inscribed leather masterpiece! It is amazing how well the leather matches the original photo pages. It was a large investment, but we’re so glad we had this done.

“What an amazing experience! I thought my family bible (late 1800s) was beyond repair! Bella Becho performed a miracle! … I am very pleased with the results and know that now my grandchildren can pass it on to their grandchildren! Thank you Bella Becho!”

Nicely done. My wife’s father’s Bible had seen a lot of miles but the fine folks at B-B were able to restore it to like new condition on the outside, while maintaining his comments and notes on the well-worn pages of the inside. Thanks to Debra, Gina, and everyone else for being such artisans.

I am really satisfied with the job that Bella Becho did on our vintage family Bible. The Bible was falling apart and seemed very fragile. Once the job was completed, I was no longer afraid that it would turn to dust in my hands. The rebinding process was worth it to preserve a part of our family history. You can now turn the pages without fear! (Google 5 Star Review)

We were fortunate to find Bella Becho to recover our wedding album. The old cover had gotten sticky and unusable so we kept the album tucked away in a closet. Now, with the fabulous leather cover, it is proudly shared on our living room table for all to see. Better still, it was done just in time for our 32nd wedding anniversary. I recommend Bella Becho to anyone who has an heirloom album or book to be recovered.

They not only lovingly restored our family bible that was falling apart, but they also created a gorgeous photo album to compliment it. We were completely blown away by how meticulous the repair was and we are so grateful for their expertise and quality craftsmanship.

I had a photo book I wanted to print and Bella Becho is the place to go to get the job done. I’ve done tons of research for this type of work in Houston and Bella Becho was the only place that would get it done in a timely and professional manner without breaking the bank.  (Google 5 Star Review)

Thank you so much for restoring and making beautiful my great grandmother’s St. Gertrude’s prayer book. My mother always had this book open on her dresser and it was falling apart from years of use. I could hardly even pick it up without pages flaking apart. I can’t believe the transformation of the pages. It is a beautiful leather bound book that will last for generations to come. Thank you!!

I had a little project I needed help with and couldn’t find anyone in my usual channels who could do what I needed for one reason or another. The last recommendation I got (and needed) was Bella Becho. Not only were they able to help with my unique request but they did it beautifully. I’d encourage anyone who needs book binding or de-bossing and custom inlay on special projects to save yourself a headache and go directly to Deborah and the crew at Bella Becho.

Our mother told her 5 children that she wanted one thing for their 60th wedding anniversary; her wedding album restored. We said sure, but truly had no idea where to even go to have the book restored. I googled book restoration and Bella Becho popped up. I reviewed their website and thought, this is just what we need. I contacted Bella through their website explaining the issues with the album and uploaded pictures of it. I was contacted by Deborah and had a delightful conversation about the restoration process and cost. We had about 2 months to get the project completed and Bella did not let us down. We presented the album to our parents last weekend, and they were so pleased. They spent a lot of time going through each page and telling us who everyone was in the pictures. Thank you Bella Becho for helping these 5 children fulfill their parent’s 60th wedding anniversary wish!

Our home was flooded due to water being released from Barker Reservoir from Hurricane Harvey and my husbands family bible was a casualty. I read the reviews and decided upon Bella Becho and am so glad I chose them. They finished drying out the Bible and rebound it beautifully and the staff was so courteous. So very pleased with the finished product. Definitely recommend and will use again. (Yelp 5 Star Review)

“Thank you for sending the links for the optimized files for the book. They look very good and the rebinding job on the physical book is superb. The owner of the book will be pleased. I’m very satisfied and enjoyed working with you and your staff on this project.”

Wow, I love the new cover on my wedding album! I’ve been married for 36 years and when I saw the condition the cover was in a few months ago I had tears in my eyes. I had no idea what to do and who to turn to. So glad I found Bella Becho. Such a helpful and professional company with genuine, kind employees. Great recommendations and put my trust in a company with my only photos of my wedding and have to be honest and say I was a little reluctant; but after speaking with Deborah and her staff I was put at ease. Thank you for giving our wedding album a beautiful life-long cover that I am so happy with!

Thank you so much for recovering my Bible. I’ve been reading, researching, teaching, and sharing the Word of God for over 43 years so the cover was very worn. You’ve recreated it with beautiful new soft leather cover. It just feels good again. Thank you for your expertise.

“You have done a magnificent restoration. I would never have believed it was possible to restore our 63 year old treasured bible to its original condition, but you have done it. You even restored the torn and damaged page to its original condition with all of our family notes intact, just as we recorded them years ago. Our Bible looks and feels like new and will be enjoyed for several generations to come I am sure. Thank you Bella Becho.”

It was truly joyous for me to see how wonderful the Roommates books came out under your exacting standards! The heavy hard covers—the luxurious papers—-the trim, the details of the printing—everything was just right—-So Thank you for your expertise!

Bella Becho is a top notch company. From the consultation to the final product, they exceeded my highest expectations. I would highly recommend this company for book restoration.

We used Bella Becho for a corporate gift project and it was an absolute joy to work with them. Even with distance with our office in Florida, Deborah and team were always quick to communicate, efficient in turnaround, and incredibly professional with a high attention to detail. We were thrilled with the final product – delivered on time and with quality and finishes better than imagined. Sincere thank you!

I had a great experience getting my daughters Wedding Album cover replaced. Debbie was friendly informative and helpful. I received the album in the time period that I was quoted and was very pleased with the finished product. I recommended Bella Becho to my neighbor who had the same issues with her wedding album. I’m sure that you will be hearing from her. I am so pleased that I will be able to present the new album to my daughter and son-in-law for their 30th wedding anniversary.

I can’t thank you enough.

Linda Kendall.

I had a wonderful experience working with Bella Becho. I am very happy with the beautiful custom book they put together and bound in leather from a digital file I supplied. They shipped the finished copy to me in NY- the whole process very seamless. I highly recommend using them for your printing and binding needs!

“Bella Becho has printed 2 small scale books for my last two art exhibitions at McClain Gallery. She’s smartest bookbinder in Texas. Every visit is fun, enlightening and major productive. I simply LOVE this place and her generosity is always, always so amazing.” (Facebook Review)

You guys did great! You refurbished our completely worn wedding album. After 35 years, it wasn’t holding up well. We love the finished product! So glad we decided to have you do the job! Many thanks!!

The reconstituted wedding album is beautiful! The upgraded cover and internals assured us that the album will outlive us. Rather than put the album in some forgotten place, we keep it on our dining room table for visitors to see. Your work has made a huge difference in looking back in time.

My well worn Bible was completely falling apart when I sent it in. Anything they would have done would have been an improvement.  I received my Bible back last week and I can’t express to you how it looks….absolutely beautiful! The restoration work is amazing. Please don’t hesitate to send this company anything you might need restored…you will be glad you did!

Restored two WW2 ship year books. They took the soft cover and made a hard back. Bound it, and embossed lettering on front. Great job. (Google 5 Star Review)

The work done on my 1940 childhood books was exceptional. My correspondence with Deborah was so satisfying and she was such a great help in deciding how to repair my books. These books will be a gift to my granddaughter when her first child is born- she will preserve the books for me.

Trusting a four generational heirloom to folk unknown leaves one with feelings between anxiety and stark fear. No need for all the drama. The book in question was resurrected from near falling apart to a splendid tome destined to survive for another couple of centuries. Aside from the exemplary restoration and Gina and the crew are absolutely delightful – blessings all. The bottom line: Bella Becho has my unrestricted recommendation as well as my gratitude.
