Jordan Lake Taxidermy

Pittsboro NC
We are a small taxidermy shop in Pittsboro NC. All mounting is done by myself and my Son Justin. This is not a large shop. I do not sub out work to other taxidermists. I strive to produce the highest quality in each and every peice. I give each peice the time it deserves, bringing out the life like details.I do taxidermy on a part-time basis. I have found that from time to time I must limit the number of peices that I take in each year or risk getting behind on turnartound times. As it has happend in the past due to long term illness I faced. After treatment and a few years away from the salts and chemicals and letting my body heal. I can once again return to the art of taxidermy. All taxidermists, fulltime or parttime can run inot problems such as i did. Taxidermist can only mount so many trophies each year. If a taxidermist is over a year getting your trophy back to you, then they are taking in to many peices. Contact me, although sometimes I`am right there in the shop and just cannot stop what I`am doing to answer the phone. There are times of the year that my regular job requires substatial overtime, and I will not be there to answer your call during the weekday evenings. No worries! First call, 919 730-8882
