A look at the craftsmanship, materials, and attention to detail behind our custom homes, remodels, and cabinetry.
Dan built our new waterfront home on the Neuse River. He did an outstanding job, doing much of the physical work himself, and managing the construction of the home. He is a skilled woodworker and construction manager. We are especually pleased with our kitchen, bath, and great room. He built fir beams for the cathedral ceiling that actually look like a real timber framed roof. We highly recommend him for custom homes and any woodworking project.
Sincerely,

Dan did the cabinetry and trim work for my granddaughter’s new home. He also built a custom closet for my wife. He did an awesome job and we could not be more pleased with his quality and affordability.
Sincerely,

Dan remodeled our kitchen and we are very pleased with the outcome. He took a small confined place and transformed it into an open and beautiful kitchen and dining area. He took out walls and fabricated posts and beams to highlight the open feel of the space and then built custom cabinets and counters that are both functional and beautiful. We would highly recommend him for any of your kitchen remodeling needs.
Sincerely,
