Luke is amazing! He has been communicative and sensitive throughout the whole process of having a beloved pet's skeleton articulated. His knowledge and skill is outstanding and his pricing is more than fair for the level of experience he has. Skeletons UK is incredible and I would recommend this business to anyone!

Absolutely amazing, so over the moon. Luke has done an amazing job on my rough neck monitor rodney. It took a while but wow it was certainly worth the wait. What an artist to articulate such intricate work.

I sent a small skull from an Aesculapian Snake, Zamenis longissimus, to Luke for cleaning, preparing and mounting. The flesh of the snake's head had already started to decompose when Luke received it and the task of stripping and cleaning the skull was a lengthy process. The turn around time was exactly four months. Luke did an amazing job, especially considering how small the skull was, and I was absolutely delighted with the results. I would thoroughly recommend his services.

Luke completed our cat skeleton very quickly and went the extra mile to memorialise her. He gave us her whiskers in a little jar, preserved a patch of fur and we even got some ink paw prints. He was also very understanding of our situation and gave us plenty of time to figure things out even though he had no obligation to. On top of all of that he delivered her to our home himself from a long distance. We're very pleased we found someone we could trust with her and we'll definitely be coming to him again when the time comes for our other cats

Outstanding work by Skeletons UK. Communication was good throughout the process. Everything I asked for was delivered (and I was quite specific). It's so lovely to have my boy back and owning a pug skeleton is quite the conversation starter when people visit.
