Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Welcome to our home, 160 Whirlaway Trail in Corbin, KY!   Sherelene and I moved to Corbin in 1979 when I went to work for Doug Blair at Richland Conrich Energy.  Our home, built the year before,  utilizes Western Red Cedar for the entire exterior, treated pine for the decks a walkways and a lot of the. inside walls are also made from Western Cedar.  I love the natural wood, but……. it requires a certain amount of care to keep it looking rich and beautiful.  The cost of western Cedar has escalated so much that if I ever wanted to build the same house again, there is no way I could afford to do it!  The cedar requires a good pressure washing, stripping and an application of a product called Revive before applying a oil based preservative to bring back the cedar color, at least every 5 to 6 years!

Sherelene and I have been searching for over 3 years to find someone that could do this!  Several painters have come and looked at the project and never came back, it’s a man killing job!  The point of this blog entry is to praise the company we finally found! Collins Custom Creations based in Bell County, Kentucky.  Don’t worry at the end of the blog I will give you all of their contact info.  Jody and Evan have just spend over three weeks with us working from daylight to dark almost every day!  My assessment is that they are talented, hard working, and able to deal with almost any situation!  Beside all the wood work they rebuilt part of a from deck walkway, some electrical work, and indoor ceiling work repairs.  When they say they are finish work carpenters, they truly are!  We are thrilled with the results of their hard work!  Over the time we had them with us Chester fell in love with them and so did we!

We love our home and love it even more after the loving care it got from Jody and Evan, if you are needing flooring, trim work, window installed, decks built. or repaired, or need wood work I can highly recommend them.  Today nothing is cheap, but their fees were very reasonable, considering that they show up, work hard and leave everything cleaned up and as it was before, except with the work very well done!  They went above and beyond our expectations and today that is rare indeed!

Thanks guys, it was a pleasure having you working in our home!
