I've had an incredible experience working with Bryan Koons and his team at HBP. We've worked with Bryan for many years, and with HBP for about three years now, and they provide not notch service on projects big and small. The largest project of my year is managing Commencement program printing for a major university, and I've really come to trust and depend on HBP for their outstanding work and partnership.

They respond quickly, look for the best pricing options possible, and deliver excellent print quality AND customer service. I really appreciate everything they do for my team and me.

I've been using HBP for different print projects since 2017 and always look forward to working with them. They are always able to help if I have a question and for any troubleshooting a project needs. They are very responsive to emails and keep me up to date on where my active projects are at and when they'll be delivered. They are also such a pleasure to work with - everyone I've been in contact with is nice, helpful, courteous, and knows what they are talking about. I know I can always rely on HBP and that when they deliver a project it will be perfect and exactly what I was looking for.

I have been a customer of HBP for nearly 3 years. They print and mail my monthly medical publication. We are one of their smallest jobs/customers I believe, BUT their service is impeccable and treat me like we are one of their largest clients. Patrick is the salesman who initially showed me around their office/warehouse, explained their processes, discussed in detail all of our paper options and pricing.

He was very thorough and still to this day he makes sure the quality never waivers, he always oversees our print job. Tina is my go to person that I communicate with every month to ensure my files are correct, receive my proof and ensures the printing and postage is all correct. If she has a question or thinks something is off, she brings it up to me right away.

She is constantly looking out for me and making sure I am 100% satisfied. Pete in printing has helped ensure numerous times that our pdf's will be printed with the correct red in our logo, fixing files at times for me and makes sure I am satisfied. I have truly only had one or two small issues that have come up in the past 3 years and I can tell you that Tina, Patrick and Pete all worked at correcting them right away.

The print itself is high quality, the paper they use is high quality and our product has truly increased in value and atheistic ever since I began using HBP. I am beyond satisfied with this company and the work they produce, their prices are competitive and I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of printing. Great local business!

Terrible place only one job keeping them in motion. Everyone just sits around and eats and talks all day not really any work to do.

I came to HBP last summer with a rush order for wedding invitations that a friend designed but (alas) didn't send the files until the invitations should have already been sent. Another friend recommended Julie Ahalt as the project manager she'd done lots of business printing contracts with. Julie was professional, accommodating, and realistic.

She express-mailed paper samples to me, and gave me the estimates and timetables I needed to make decisions quickly. The staff was very professional and caught some errors, unasked, in my address list. The turnaround was rapid, though they definitely dotted their i's and crossed their t's in making sure I approved the proofs first. The quality was excellent - I'm a typography and paper nerd, and loved the results.

The price was astonishingly good: two-color printing of 500 textured cardstock invitations, and three matching inserts (40 each, for different events) for just under $500, if memory serves. Didn't need 500 (the cost was nearly identical for 300, and it was still much cheaper than my fall-back option, Costco.com partner Wedding Paper Divas - at $3/invitation).

Their press is actually out west of DC, and not in Alexandria, which only matters if it's a true rush job - and they bent over backwards to make it work with my difficult schedule. I can't say enough good things about them. Highly recommended.
