Profile picture of Founder

Sean B. Bruce

Founder

Sean’s mum likes to say he was born with a pencil and a hammer in hand.
After leaving England, he spent a decade in Jamaica learning from the tradespeople who built elegant, hurricane-resilient homes. Naturally,
his first job upon arriving stateside was working with a general contractor
on a home renovation.


For college, Sean made a left turn and studied advertising, then spent several decades on Madison Avenue helping people purchase things they didn’t know they needed.


After relocating to Silver Spring with his wife, Sean made a right turn back
to his first passion. He is now a licensed general contractor in Maryland
and Washington, D.C., tackling to-do lists filled with projects large and
small for clients across the DMV. He is also a Certified Passive House Tradesperson (CPHT).

Chief Operating Officer

The right and left hand of this company, she's consistently accurate within a 16th of an inch. No project gets off the ground without her knowledge, so don't try to be sneaky.

Chief Technology Officer

There's a lot of tech in those pouches depending on the project.  Also known as B-22, she has 19 years of experience.  When working with her readily available side-kick 22oz framing hammer, they're a versatile force attached at the hip.

**Yes, I’m a dad too.

Our old screen in porch needed an update. Sean was attentive, thorough and built everything better than what was there. We're excited about our new screen porch.

– Kye P, homeowner

My condo needed some modern design touches. Sean installed shiplap wood planks on one wall and installed a new vanity at a great price.

– Suzy s, homeowner

Sean designed and installed a functional paved patio that was solid and matched the style of our 1940's brick home.

– tatyana m, homeowner

We disliked the basement fiberglass shower. Sean installed porcelain tiles and river-rock shower tiles. Our bathroom is a magical place to be now.
