My specialty is furniture refinishing but I also enjoy making custom furniture. Over the years I have been told repeatedly that I missed my calling when it came to the art of wood. I just enjoy any type of carpentry and making others dreams come true.
Dealing with the public all my life first as a salesman during college and have realized over the years that most people are not patient. Quality work is not possible without patience and making sure every detail is covered for pieces to last a lifetime. My pieces are meant to be passed down from generation to generation. This process can not be rushed.
No one is perfect and I don't expect to be, but I strive for perfection in my furniture making process. With a Masters in Special Education and a Masters in Business, I have learned that patience over powers ignorance.

For Donald's Chest of drawers containing 5 drawersDerrick did a fabulous job building a shoe chest of drawers to fit perfectly in an unused nook in the bedroom. Quality and price are excellent. I won't hesitate to use Derrick again. His workmanship has motivated me to think of other woodworking projects I'd like to have made. Thanks Derrick!

For Platform Storage BedWe are thrilled with the custom bed we ordered. Derrick was extremely personable and put in the time and effort to make sure everything was exactly the way we wanted it. He is certainly a perfectionist and that, along with the covid pandemic led to some delays/extensions on the deadline but the finished product was worth well it. We found him a pleasure to work with and would highly recommend him!
Henry Feight
For Custom Cutting Board That Measures 36" X 36" Or The Start Of A New TableDerrick made me a custom board based off my request, he educated my on the proper woods to use as a Brisket Cutting Board. He sent me updated every other day or so and was very professional. I am very satisfied and will be using Derrick for other projects in the future. Thank You for you work….

For Custom Made Pinewood Tv Stand "Zion"Blown away!!! This is exactly what I wanted. It is solid as a rock and will certainly outlive me. Carpentry and Finish are exquisite! To think I was about to pay 5x as much at RH that wasn't even really what I wanted. Best money I have spent this year. I can't recommend Harris Carpentry strongly enough!!!!
