Meet the Founders
Earl & Samantha Dagestad
We’re Earl and Samantha, a husband-and-wife team with a passion for bringing high-quality design and craftsmanship to residential construction projects. With a combined background in design and finish carpentry, we work exclusively with contractors to deliver seamless, buildable solutions that enhance every stage of the project.
Earl is a former contractor with over 25 years of hands-on experience, specializing in finish work such as cabinet installation, flooring, tile, and trim. His precision and understanding of the construction process make him a trusted partner on any job site. Samantha is a seasoned interior designer with over a decade of experience in kitchen, bath, and construction design. She’s known for creating thoughtful and contractor friendly plans that are both beautiful and practical.
By working solely with contractors, we’re able to focus on what we do best—bridging the gap between design and execution. Our goal is to make your projects run smoother, look better, and finish strong.
