About

I started construction when I was just 15, on my dad's job sites in the summer. I went to UTK for fine arts in sculpture to get away from construction; I discovered craftsmanship and the rewards of a job well done. I've been making things ever since. My primary focus is on finish carpentry, including trim, moldings, cabinets and doors. Projects large and small. In addition I repair homes as well as consult and plan residential projects. If you’re looking to put in some archways, build a hall tree, create a library, or build something one of a kind. I’d be interested to earn your business.

I hired Allen to hang a pair of barn doors that I had built. He was super responsive from the beginning. He arrived on time and got straight to work. He even went to the store to get wood for the project. He was friendly and professional and of course did a great job hanging the doors. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on the labor and Material costs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started on Jobsites as a teenager on my dads Construction sites. Then I went to Art school for sculpture at UT Knoxville and I learned how to weld and do all sorts of fun things. And now I bring all those tools and techniques to people's homes.
