“When I first hired Tim Lantz to rebuild the sagging eves of my 1916 Prairie Style house I had no idea it would be the start of a historic renovation project that would span over a decade. His patience was bottomless and his knowledge of and sympathy for the original materials and design of my home made it possible for me to bring it back to life. I can’t recommend Tim strongly enough. My primary concern was that in attempting to restore my home, I would inadvertently ruin it by hiring someone who didn’t understand the difference between renovation and historic preservation. Tim saved me from this fate and I will always be grateful to him for that.” -Mark Hapner |
