The Team Behind the Work
Vendors & Trade Partners
A finished room is never one person’s work. Over the years I’ve built a network of builders, workrooms, fabricators, showrooms and installers I trust with my clients’ homes — people who show up, measure twice, and care how the last inch looks. When you hire me, you get all of them.
9 partner categories
Builders & Remodelers
The people who take a plan off paper and build it well. I work alongside them from framing through final punch list so the design intent survives construction.
- Custom home builders across the Hill Country
- Whole-home remodel contractors
- Kitchen & bath renovation specialists
- Project managers who protect the schedule
Cabinetry & Millwork
Built-ins, libraries, pantries, banquettes. Custom cabinetry is where a room stops looking like a builder box and starts looking like yours.
- Custom cabinet shops
- Finish carpenters & trim specialists
- Paneling, beams & ceiling detail
- Hardware and accessory suppliers
Workroom, Upholstery & Window Treatments
Drapery, roman shades, cornices, headboards, cushions, and custom bedding — all measured, sewn, and installed to fit your windows and your rooms, not a standard size.
- Custom drapery workroom
- Upholstery & re-upholstery
- Custom bedding & pillows
- Motorized shades & blinds
- Hardware and track specialists
Flooring, Tile & Stone
Hardwood, tile, slab selection and fabrication. I go to the stone yard with you so the veining you fall in love with is the slab that gets cut.
- Hardwood & engineered wood installers
- Tile setters
- Stone yards & countertop fabricators
- Grout, sealant, and finish product suppliers
Paint, Wallcovering & Finishes
Color is only as good as the hands applying it. These are the crews who cut a clean line and hang paper without a seam you can find.
- Interior & exterior painters
- Wallpaper installers
- Specialty & decorative finishes
- Paint color consultants and product reps
Lighting & Electrical
Layered lighting is the fastest way to make a room feel expensive. Fixtures, picture lights, dimming, and placement all get planned early.
- Licensed electricians
- Lighting showrooms & fixture reps
- Landscape & exterior lighting
- Custom picture-light and art-lighting specialists
Furniture, Rugs & Trade Showrooms
Trade-only lines you won't find in a big-box store — better frames, better fabrics, and pieces that hold up to real family life.
- To-the-trade furniture lines
- Rug dealers & custom rug binding
- Antique & vintage dealers
- Art & framing
- Custom upholstery workrooms
Seasonal, Floral & Event Suppliers
Silk florals, garlands, pumpkins, hay, and cornstalks — ordered in July and August so installs land on schedule in September.
- Silk floral & garland suppliers
- Pumpkin, hay & cornstalk growers
- Fresh floral & event rentals
- Holiday lighting installers
- Seasonal wreath and mantel suppliers
Receiving, Delivery & Installation
Everything is received, inspected, and stored before it ever comes to your house, so install day is one clean day instead of six weeks of boxes.
- Receiving warehouse & storage
- White-glove delivery crews
- Art & mirror hanging
- Final cleaning and touch-up teams

Why the trade network matters
Trade relationships get you access to lines that aren’t sold to the public, lead times that get honored, and crews who protect your floors on the way in. They also mean one point of contact — me. You are never chasing a workroom, a fabricator and an installer to figure out whose fault a delay is.
Are you a builder, workroom, showroom or installer who’d like to be considered? I’m always glad to meet good people doing careful work.
