About us

My name is Doug Richardson and I have practiced fine craftsmanship in nearly every facet of home remodeling and décor. I enjoyed a long teaching career in Industrial Arts Education showing students the importance of careful planning, material selection, and skills using a variety of tools and equipment. My nature is to allow a home improvement project to progress with a smooth controlled tempo using the necessary techniques. I enjoy sharing the experience with home owners and invite all questions and concerns that they may have. My pricing of a job will always remain the same as the quote that I give to the customer. Final payment is only accepted after the customer is completely satisfied.

Doug stayed on the job till completed in 2 days . He also solved some surprise problems on my double storm door installation. He wound up overcoming some missing and vital parts. Doug used ingenuity to close air spaces and get a secure and airtight fit. Great Job!

My thru the wall air conditioner stopped working & had to be replaced with a larger unit since it was an old one not made anymore. Doug Richardson did 2 rooms in my home, & did an excellent job. He is very polite, excellent hard worker, I' would recommend him to customers & friends. He is a very talented worker & cares about his customers to do an excellent job. I will definitely have him do other work necessary in my home. The project was top notch. He consistently showed up on time. My final project turned out great. Thank you Doug. Maggie G.
