Working with a master carpenter, Chris rehabbed and restored classic older houses in Asheville, where he learned to reverse engineer their original construction and to design from the ground up, key components of what a remodel carpenter’s toolkit.
Establishing his own landscaping and carpentry business, Chris did substantial work in landscape design, specializing in native plants. Chris’s business also included stonework and timber retaining wall and drainage. He studied blueprint reading, building, estimating and CAD at ABTech and increasingly focused on carpentry and construction, his true vocation.
