Word of mouth is still the best form of promotion. Here is what a few DadsPipes clients had to say about their experiences.
I just wanted to reach out and sincerely thank you for the outstanding work you did on my pipes.
The Parker has truly been resurrected. The stem looks fantastic, no longer burns my mouth from oxidation, and I can finally run a pipe cleaner through it without issue. It feels like a new pipe. As for the Posella, both stems are excellent. The original is back to life, and the new vulcanite stem is magnificent. It feels great in the hand and mouth, and aesthetically it complements the pipe beautifully.
I’m now enjoying these two pipes more than I ever did before. Your skill and care really shine through in the results, and I couldn’t be happier.

Mr. Charles Lemon is one of the very few remaining Old World pipe restorers and expert on pipes. I sent him a German Vauen pipe and he sent it back looking better than when it was new. Thank you Charles.

Thank you so very much. The new hand cut stem is fabulous. I never imagined it would be this beautiful.

I finally got a chance to smoke the Peterson with your new [hand cut] stem, and I have to say it was fantastic! The stem is super comfortable, thanks again.

Charles’ experience with antique pipes, in particular his work with meerschaums, and geography made the decision easy. Shipping is difficult at the best of times, and I decided it was best to keep this Canadian treasure in Canada. The whole process was very easy, and cost effective, with great communication. I’d like to thank Charles personally for his professionalism. I am extremely pleased with how this pipe turned out. I’m certain that after 113 years, this old man presented more than a few challenges..
