Where to get prints and Canvas from?

Hello
I am a new photographer and just set up my business. I just wondered where is the best place to get prints and canvas from etc that is high quality and professional printers - not just one of the cheap printing suppliers that prints poor quality.
I have been told Digilab is good?? I printed a few small prints from there but didnt notice much in quality to be honest.
I have a customer wanting some Canvas doing so dont want to order them and then they arrive and are no good. So any suggestions where is the best place to get these printed?
Also I need to know where is best for Photobooks. I know there is loads of places offering these but I want ones that are suitable for wedding Photo Books that I can get from UK?

Thanks for all your help.

There was an ideal opportunity just gone to see all this first hand at Focus on Imaging show in Birmingham last week where the world and his wife were showing prints, albums and canvasses from cheap up to very very expensive of all types of quality.

I appreciate the request for info and opinions, but are you going to base your choice of print and canvas supplier on the opinions of a few people on a forum you don't know? Fine if you want a few prints to take down to the camera club but possibly not the best if you are charging someone a few hundred quid for a wedding album.

My own thoughts are that you really need to see the quality for yourself. How do you judge other people's perception of quality?

I'll second Wave01 with Loxley. I've never used them but we've had pro photos taken so I've seen the results as it was Loxley the tog used.
