“I have been asked for a recommendation for Mark Fry and his company – Museum Quality Restoration Services. I am pleased to do so without reservations.
Our clients for this project, the Martins, wrote this lovely letter after they received their restored sculptures:
We have used Museum Quality Restoration Services and Mark Fry to repair and rejuvenate two different family heirlooms, wooden sculptures crafted in the 1950s and 1960s by Melinda’s artist aunt, Rosemary Cahoon.

We then agreed on approach, price and an approximate schedule and paid Mark a 50% deposit. read more
