Toasted Wood Barn Door

Built and finished this custom herringbone barn door from raw pine — then torched and sealed it to a rich, deep toasted wood finish. A one-of-a-kind statement piece.

Race-Track Curved Deck

Built this one-of-a-kind deck featuring a custom curved banked turn at the end — inspired by race car enthusiasts. From framing and fresh boards to a fully finished walkway with rustic wood railing, every angle was intentional.

Dream Deck Build

From bare ground to a beautiful finished deck — framed it up, laid fresh pressure-treated boards, then painted and finished it with sleek metal cable handrailing. A complete front porch transformation.

Deck Catio Build

Custom-built this small catio right on the client's existing deck — framed with pressure-treated lumber and wrapped in wire mesh so the cats can enjoy the outdoors safely. From bare posts and a roll of fencing to a fully enclosed outdoor cat haven.
