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.

    Derrick expertly crafted a custom sized pasta board for my father for Christmas. My father hasn’t stopped making pasta! The custom size fits perfectly on his counter, and looks absolutely beautiful. He was teary-eyed when we gave it to him. For the price the product was more than I could have hoped for. I’m actually amazed at how reasonable the price was especially considering the amount of work that went into it. I would give 6 stars for value. Derrick was friendly, available and communicative during the whole process. Leave plenty of time for the product to be crafted and delivered! Production took a little longer than expected but I was given a discount as compensation. Totally worth it!

    Mr. Harris is an extremely kind craftsman who does beautiful work. He was very accommodating and finished product was way better than what I thought I was building! My experience working with Derrick is watching someone who loves what they do and puts heart into your artful piece, this is old-school craftsmanship that NC was built on.

    Derrick is a gem! His talent and passion are unprecedented. He is kind and very passionate about his craft. He was able to help us and answer all of our questions as well as address our concerns. The final outcome is more than we anticipated! If I could place a billboard on our front lawn, I’d be happy and proud to recommend this true artist????????????
