Built square, plumb and true.
Framing, additions, decks, trim and built-ins around Corpus Christi. A small crew that measures twice and cleans up every day.
What we build
Rough framing to finish carpentry. Same crew start to finish, so the person who framed it also hangs the doors.

Recent work
The wood we pick
Salt air and humidity are rough on lumber here. We match the species to where it lives.
Western red cedar
Naturally resists rot and bugs. Weathers to a silver gray if you leave it unstained.
Decks, pergolas, sidingTreated pine
Pressure-treated for ground contact. Strong and affordable for the parts you won't see.
Framing, posts, joistsWhite oak
Hard, tight-grained and handsome under a clear finish. Takes a beating on stairs.
Stairs, built-ins, shelvesPoplar
Smooth and stable, with no knots to bleed through. The best wood for painted trim.
Paint-grade trim, doorsFrom clients
“They found the old header was undersized when we opened the wall, and fixed it right instead of hiding it.”
“The built-ins look like they came with the house. My wife cried a little.”
“Our deck survived the last storm without a loose board. The neighbor's didn't.”
