Framing the floor of the Macalester-Groveland addition
We’ve renovated houses built between 1900 and 1950 since 2011. Five people, about twelve jobs a year, and one of the two of us on every site.

Carpenter · runs the sites
Twenty-five years of finish carpentry, the last fifteen in houses older than his grandparents. If your trim needs matching, he’ll mill it.
Designer · estimates and schedules
Trained as an interior architect. She draws every job, writes every estimate and answers every inquiry within two working days.
A 1920s house is full of surprises: plaster over lath, wiring from three different decades, floors that aren’t level and never were. Most crews price that as risk. We price it as Tuesday.
Doing one kind of house is how we can give you a fixed price and keep it.
