About The Owner

Since 2002, I have called the Wilmington area my home. Following my graduation from Topsail High School in 2007, I decided to further my education at Miller-Motte College, where I earned an associate's degree in Criminal Justice.

In 2010, I began my career in the fencing industry as a humble helper. I worked my way up to become a foreman & residential estimator. During this period, I met my wife, Libby, & we married. We have two children, our eldest son Sawyer & our youngest son Finn. Our children inspired me to establish my own company, "Sawdust to Finished."

With a vision of creating a reputable name for myself & my business, I decided to venture out on my own in 2022. I aspire to create a legacy that can be passed down to my sons should they pursue careers in the construction industry.

Testimonials

Dean Stewart - Shadow Box Style Fence

I’ve recently had a Shadow box style fence built by Skylar and his crew at Sawdust To Finished and couldn’t be happier with my decision to use his company. First and foremost the quality and care he puts into his job for you is top notch, which gives you an amazing finished product. I’m an observer and like to see how things are done so I sat back and watched most of his build, how he lined up and set the posts to watching him select and place the best boards accordingly and even discard pieces that didn’t meet his standards, oh and let’s not forget the perfect level of the fence with the grade of my property. To sum it up, the whole process from start to finish was perfect, Sawdust To Finished/Skylar did what he said he would do for me, showed up every time as scheduled (which as we all know is far and few between with contractors these days) and left the job site completed and clean! Lastly I found his quote to be fair to my pockets and the quality and craftsmanship of the job was excellent.

Kelli Davis - Residential Wood & Aluminum Privacy Fence

We merged two materials for our fence by combining the elegance of wood with the durability of aluminum along the backyard (an HOA requirement since our backyard overlooks a retention pond). The results are truly breathtaking. The impeccable craftsmanship & exceptional quality shine through in every detail. It is a testament to the artistry & skill of Sawdust to Finished, leaving us in awe of the beautiful outcome.

Tom Cucuel - Residential Screened-In Porch

Our screened-in porch was hand-crafted by Sawdust to Finished. It has become the centerpiece of our backyard. It never fails to draw compliments from our guests, leaving us delighted & content. Our happiness knows no bounds with the remarkable work they have accomplished.
