This is an example of an extension performed by Dennis on an LCS Crown grade. I could tell you where it is but that would take the fun out of it.

Dennis is going to cost nearly double Marks pricing and probably take nearly 2X as long in my experience. He's worth the money and the wait IMO. Nothing against Mark, I have used them both. Each of them has a niche for my tastes.

Did you tell him you already have the extension on (I assume you do)? He told me my price was cheaper because it already had an extension on. All he had to do was blend in the extension and refinish.

In my case there was a poorly executed extension on this Crown grade. Naturally one would expect a lower price for blending less actually adding the extension. BTW I am not knocking what Dennis charges, he's worth it IMO.
