About Rich Wood Carpentry
Our Story
In 2021, I came to Tennessee from California with a truck, a toolbox, and faith that God had a bigger plan. For two months in the middle of the Tennessee summer, I lived out of my little Ford Ranger while working to rebuild a life that had been turned upside down when COVID wiped out the film prop-building industry I had spent my career
In 2021, I came to Tennessee from California with a truck, a toolbox, and faith that God had a bigger plan. For two months in the middle of the Tennessee summer, I lived out of my little Ford Ranger while working to rebuild a life that had been turned upside down when COVID wiped out the film prop-building industry I had spent my career in.
Back home, my incredible wife was holding everything together while caring for our five children. Her strength, belief in me, and constant encouragement are the reason this story even exists. It took a full year of sacrifice and long days before I was finally able to bring my family out here to Tennessee.
Starting over forced me to bet on myself. I stepped into the trim world with the mindset that craftsmanship should be treated like an art form. Through faith, relentless work, and a commitment to doing things the right way, doors began to open. What started from nothing has grown into a company that is quickly becoming a trusted name for high-end trim work across Middle Tennessee.
What separates us is simple: we operate like family. We show up, we deliver, and we stand behind our work every time.
From living in a truck to building something truly meaningful, this journey has been built on faith, grit, and the belief that excellence always rises to the top
