Business Description
The Burgess family has been immersed in craftsmanship and building since childhood. Our grandfather was a millwright, a trim carpenter, and was in the Corps of Engineers in WWII. He would describe in detail and show us how they made spiral chutes out of wood for flour mills in Kansas or how they hung and installed 8 doors a day for new houses in Denver. The foreman would run a nickel around the door to check the gap. If it was wrong, you did it over. It was all done precisely, one at a time, with hand tools. He taught us to appreciate a job well done.
Gentry started his career in carpentry and building at age 10 with 4-H classes, built his first house at age 17 and has been a builder and remodeler ever since, from 1983-1988 in Twin Falls, Idaho and from 1988 to present in Kirkland, Washington.
Elaine has a BA in Fine Art and appreciates time to paint watercolors, draw and create in various mediums. She also enjoys designing furniture and cabinetry as well as working with clients and suppliers to provide suggestions or fulfill customers design selections.
Ours is a small company that takes great pride in our personal relationship with each and every client. Let us use our talents and abilities to create a well designed home or remdel for you.
