Van Huffer is the Vice President at Utmost Masonry Restoration and in charge of all operations in the field. He started learning the trade of masonry at the age of 16. While working hard from mixing mortar, moving material and laboring for the lead masons, he began to learn how the work was done properly and how to lead a crew. After a few years of learning the basics, he started running his owns jobs. Now he is leading and teaching all the crews and followed his dad’s footsteps as a businessman and is helping run the family business. In his free time, he likes to work out, play the bass guitar and relax with his two dogs.

In the year 2000, following a successful career in business and specialty construction, Mark Huffer started Utmost Masonry Restoration, a Masonry Contracting company with a passionate emphasis on Building Restoration and Historical Preservation.

Phillips Restoration where he rewarded the business with 300% increased revenues and profits before accepting a new challenge as Vice President at Accurate Glass and Mirror Company where they also experienced fantastic growth from his efforts.
