2 Craftsmen Dedicated To Creating Structural Timber Frames And Custom Woodwork

3 The MoreSun Story It began in 2002 as a simple one-man show when I had a dream of creating custom woodwork and timber frames. As time went on and projects grew larger, I hired skilled craftsmen to keep up with demand. MoreSun Custom Woodworking, Inc. now employs eight full-time craftsmen. Timber framing is our primary line of work, though we gladly do other woodworking when it presents itself. Our crew has become a robust team. Our clients recognize the strong integration of personalities and abilities that each person brings to our team. We have built our reputation on exceptional quality and customer service. Our business handles a nice mix of residential and commercial projects, and we work for architects, builders, and homeowners. We always look forward to new projects and new challenges. I m proud of the MoreSun family we ve become. Our craftsmen work long hours and possess the ability to work in all sorts of job site conditions. Their hard work and dedication to quality have created the work within these pages. Stephen Morrison Stephen Morrison - Owner
