Known as "Mr. Fix-It," Roger has a remarkable ability to repair and restore items that others might discard, helping us to find added value in every estate.

Roger's appreciation for antiques and hot rods began during his youth when his family traveled south each winter.

This early exposure led to an extensive expertise in antiques and collectibles, with Roger developing a keen eye for identifying valuable pieces. His knowledge plays a vital role in ensuring accurate pricing, guaranteeing that each item’s true worth is recognized.
