"Having worked with Matt for the past 5 years on various masonry and landscape projects around our home, Matt and his team continue to impress us at every turn. The absolute quality and craftsmanship of his work has left us persistently inspired. He seems to have the wonderful ability to solve problems that inevitably arise with solutions that routinely enhance the original design. His always excellent staff are respectful and dedicated in producing an unmatched quality of work. It is fair to say that after hiring several stone mason firms in the past that have failed to deliver, we have found a talented artisan in the true sense of the word in Matt Varsen."

"Matt has been doing work for us at our home for seven years. During this time, he has constructed patios, outdoor and indoor fireplaces, retaining walls, driveway borders and light posts.....all done in stone. We have obviously been extremely pleased with the quality of his work, his attention to detail, and his willingness work with us to bring total satisfaction to the job. My wife, an artist, describes Matt as a "stone artist"..."
