Meet Owner
Dan McKenzie
I’m Dan, the owner of Finish Pros. Antiques and refinishing are in my blood. From a very young age, I was surrounded by fascinating items at my family’s auction house in Raleigh. Soon enough, I started an apprenticeship at my brother’s refinishing shop and learned all about the furniture restoration process. I studied regional characteristics of American Furniture and became an ISA Appraiser specializing in period antiques and museum quality restoration. I still love restoring furniture even though I work with an incredible team of master upholsterers and finishers. Guiding Finish Pros to be the best furniture restoration shop in the Triangle has been a dream of mine since I was a child. When I’m not working, I’m probably at the beach with my 2 incredible kids and wife.
