Excellent workmanship. The man knows woodworking!

Mason is the man! I've been in possession of a dresser for more than 20 years that first came into my family back in 1923. The piece is well constructed, but the finish had deteriorated by the time it came to me to the point that it betrayed its beauty and craftsmanship. In the small town we lived in at the time I could find nobody who did restorations of antiques. There were people who could refinish it, but not restore it. I didn't want that. When we moved to Lexington I looked into antiques restoration online. Mason was near the top of my search list. I began reading his reviews and knew I'd found my guy. He impressed me with his knowledgeable assessment of our heirloom and outlined his plan for restoration. In 2 weeks the piece was returned and so beautifully restored to its original glory that I choked up just a bit. His skillful work had exceeded my expectation. Thank you, Mason! You are indeed THE MAN!

It is always refreshing and exciting to see a true work of art and that is what happened with our 100 plus year old dresser! Mason has brought it up to date with obvious loving care. He is respectful of an items original and basic nature which in this case is red oak. I actually gasped when I first caught a glimpse of his efforts on this chest. You will love his work. Highly recommend!!

Mason masterfully repaired a cherished antique dining chair with severe broken leg, timely and affordably too. We are in his debt; I highly recommend him.

I found Mason after my home was damaged in a storm and some of my family antiques were damaged but repairable and boy was I glad I found him!! Mason came to my home, assessed the damaged pieces, and had me an estimate the next morning for my insurance agent. Once we got all the pieces to his shop he was very timely with the work and went above and beyond on the repairs and I couldn't be happier. Folks people like Mason, with his background in the Antique furniture repair business are starting to fade away, especially with his knowledge, so if you need simple repairs or even detailed repairs like I had to have you don't need to look any further because Mason is the guy, PERIOD!!

Mason managed to find and fix the leaf on my favorite hand painted table—in about 5 minutes—without taking it out of the car!

Steve Smith
I knew I had chosen the right place once I met Mason. Even though my coffee table and end table are not antiques Mason knew right away that they were from the '80s. People like Mason are a dying breed. He truly loves wood and his work shows it. I would highly recommend him to any of my family or friends!

Thanks for excellent repair of my chair. After my sister tried to scoot my beautiful chair as if it had rollers, the front leg broke and splintered from the top. Mason made it look new again. I definitely have more projects for him. He is a master craftsman! Jane S
