Testimonials

A skilled craftsman

Matt’s work is above and beyond our expectations. He is truly a skilled craftsman.

Michael Breslin – Holly Springs, NC – June 14, 2016

A lot of work and love

I was truly blown away when I saw my antique side-by-side secretary/desk that Matt refinished. He transformed an 1899 desk that was painted yellow into a true piece of art. It probably looks better than it did 115 years ago. Matt put a lot of work and love into this project and I couldn’t be… Read more “A lot of work and love”

EXCEEDED our expectations!

I had a dining room table that was ruined by nail polish remover & amateur attempts to correct the accident. After getting several expensive quotes from other wood experts, I called Matt & I knew almost immediately that he would do a wonderful job & was reasonably priced. All I can say is that he… Read more “EXCEEDED our expectations!”

The eye of an artist

Matt is a gifted craftsman and has the eye of an artist. We just moved into a new house and I was wringing my hands over two family pieces that had been in outdoor storage for several years and were in pretty bad shape. My interior designer recommended Matt. Upon meeting him I was impressed… Read more “The eye of an artist”

Jill Ledford Cheek – Chapel Hill, NC

A rare combination of talent, knowledge and passion

Matt’s knowledge of antiques, his respect for the wood and his attention to detail were so evident in the care that he gave my chairs. Taken from our barn after years of neglect, Matt brought these family pieces back to museum quality and our daughter was delighted to receive, “not the crusty old hand-me-downs” from… Read more “A rare combination of talent, knowledge and passion”

Sally Newbold – Cornish, N.H.

Could not have been more pleased

My husband and I recently bought a very old home in historical Camden, SC and I was really wanting to give our furniture a new look. However, with all of the money put into our new home our funds were limited. So, rather than buying new pieces of furniture we decided to give the furniture… Read more “Could not have been more pleased”

Jessica Farber Baker – Camden, SC

Looks like an heirloom

When I took my bargain secretary desk to Matt, it didn’t look like much! After he repaired, painted and distressed it for me, it now looks like an heirloom. I am very happy with Matt’s work, and would definitely use Red Barn Services in the future

Leslie Finley – Angier, NC

Delightful to work with! Amazing craftsman!

I contacted Matt to create a unique piece of furniture to display various native North Carolina crystals and minerals found by my father. Matt created a beautiful piece with faceted points to highlight the shapes of the crystals inside. He also used beautiful heart pine wood. The finished product was perfect and it greatly exceeded… Read more “Delightful to work with! Amazing craftsman!”
