When I first discovered Justin Epstein Masonry, Justin was active with projects all over town…read more Clearly, he was a mason in demand. I checked out his work and pictures of his projects on justinepsteinmasonry.com. And, that's where I read about his credentials - he's fully insured and has over 10 years of professional experience. So, I called him, and Justin responded quickly to meet with me and go over the details. I had a large, five-step stairway with a landing made of concrete blocks and I wanted it demolished and rebuilt with stone. I wanted granite, and even while our country was facing nationwide shortages, Justin was able to provide the exact stones we discussed. He even took the time to track down additional historic granite stones to add more character to the stairway - more than I thought was possible. His crew's craftsmanship is exceptional. And, I imagine those stairs will be around for 100 years or more, so it's worth it to hire the best. Justin is great to work with because he's smart, honest, and reliable. He is a master of his craft and a true professional. He was able to deliver a great-looking stairway. In fact, they look better than I expected. I highly recommend him and would hire him again.

If you haven't come into the shop you really need to. It's a mix of antiques, locally made gifts…read morelike candles, lighting and exotic plants. It's in a small space but every inch is covered in coolness. I called to see if they had a philodendron. They said they would text me when they had some in. I can't think of many local businesses who would call or text someone back when something was in stock. The owners are very knowledgeable. I have a tendency to kill plants and they gave me useful advice for the welfare of the plant. It was a bit large and the owner (Eric I believe?) carried it to my car. Seriously what a class act. Shop small and don't overlook this little gem of a shop!
