Customer Reviews

"Le’s Engravers is the best in town! I had a quick turnaround to have a rocking horse engraved with my nieces name on it. Within the next day, the rocking horse was ready and looked better than I had expected. I highly recommend anyone that needs an engraving or plaque to choose Le’s Engravers! Top quality, responsive, and friendly."

"Really professional and friendly customer service.  Excellent finished product - I had two 5x7 gold plates with black lettering made and they turned out exactly how I wanted!  Extremely fast turn around time (2 days) and very good pricing.  I highly recommend this engraver to anyone and everyone in the Northern Virginia area!!!"

"I came to Mr Le and his team needing a technical difficulty engraving done in less than 48 hrs.  Not only was he able to do it, he got involved in the project and asked me questions, the answers to which I hadn’t even thought about.  The end result was a fantastic looking engraving ahead of my deadline.  He is the best I’ve worked with and absolutely someone I know I can trust with any engraving project!"

-Shaun R (5 Stars, Google)

"Being new to the area I didn't know of an engraving business but a quick google search led me here and I couldn't be happier with the service I got. I purchased a diving knife for my dad for Christmas and wanted his initials on it and Le's Engravers made my idea come to life and it looks even better than I imagined it would. I definitely will come back again."

-Maddi G (5 Stars, Yelp)

"If you need engraving work done, do a little reseach and this is your best option. I wanted a quote (quite large, about 50 words) engraved on a flask for a groomsmen gift. Other vendors (I checked with Once Upon a Time in the mall, and an engraving service out of McLean) were asking for about $250. Then luckily I found Le's, who provided me a proof of concept and quotes me $75. It is run out of a house, which must be how he keeps his overhead so low to afford such competitive prices. You might also be skeptical of quality, but when you go into his office, the walls are lined with his work supporting the military by engraving plaques and frames, was completely legit. I highly recommend. It is a way better option than having some $9/hr teenage employee engraving your stuff for 4x the price"
