Jeff Osborne, Installer
I graduated from Wellington High school in 2002. The week after I went full-time into building homes for my grandfather’s construction company where I learned to craft my skills and learned a very valuable motto to "do every job and every home as if it were your own home" so I took that and ran with it. It really was not until I got with Schrapper’s Fine Cabinetry that I was able to really put that to the test. Schrapper’s strives to make sure that every job is done absolutely perfect with the upmost professionalism, no cutting corners. After my first month I realized I found my forever job.
