Meet your builder.
Mike McCloskey
Mike is the founder of GAF and a third-generation carpenter. Specializing in dining room tables was an easy choice for him as he sees them as the heart of the home - a place where bread is broken, memories are made and families come together. He learned the art of finishing tables at Rustic Restorations in Durham, NC alongside master finisher James Louf. As a New York native and former commercial real estate broker, he traded in the big city for a pick-up and a sawmill.
A perfectionist at heart, he scrutinizes every board of lumber, it’s arrangement and it’s finish to best suit the style and functionality of each of his customers.
