The Journey By Keith Levan
A home goes beyond the physical structure—it's a place where memories are created, relationships are nurtured, and people feel connected. The warmth of shared experiences, the sense of security, and the feeling of belonging turn a house into a home. The tangible elements like doors, floors, and walls are merely the stage for the intangible essence that transforms it into a space filled with love and comfort.
My journey in this trade began when I was 18 years old, working as a carpenter and learning the ins and outs of frame to finish carpentry. After honing my carpentry skills at a small family-owned construction company for 8 years, I advanced to a Lead Carpenter position at one of DC’s top high-end design-build firms. Here, I not only mastered the art of building projects but also learned how to effectively manage clients, trade partners, and carpenters, along with quality control. In the construction industry, a carpenter wears many hats. As I progressed in this role, I transitioned into a working Project Manager, overseeing multiple projects while still being hands-on in the field as a carpenter. It was here that paying attention to every detail was critical to the success of the project to execute the homeowners, architects, and designers' vision.
After spending 7 years at the DC firm, my wife and I made the decision to relocate our family to Maine in order to slow down our lives from the busy and chaotic lifestyle of Washington, DC. We are drawn to Maine for its offerings such as snowboarding, hiking, camping, beaches, lakes, and ice hockey. It was in Portland, Maine that I started working as a Project Manager for a high-end design-build firm. This marked a significant shift in my career as I transitioned from being hands-on in construction to managing multiple multi-million dollar projects in the office at a time. During my 6 years, I honed my skills by utilizing advanced project management software, overseeing project budgets and schedules, and coordinating with trade partners and carpenters in the field.
The journey now has brought me full circle to this stage in my career. Starting up my own company to deliver all the skill sets that I’ve learned over this 21-year ride. I’m excited to bring the same level of attention to detail and commitment to quality. I look forward to building beautiful spaces with you!
