Kelly and his wife were excellent to deal with. Communication was great throughout the process and the work was of extremely high quality! I would happily work with Kelly again and recommend him for your project.
The finials came out amazingly! I just sent the dimensions to them in order to replicate some porch finials that existed on a Victorian House.
