Our Roots & Craft Philosophy
Meet Dustin Smith and find out how a dedication to pure carpentry and operational integrity built Pierce County's trusted home extension team.
Built on Oklahoma Grit & Operational Directness
Dustin Smith started W.G. Construction after years in corporate and operations management, which means he didn't just learn carpentry, he learned how to run a project clean and on-time. He grew this company from grassroots referrals and over 1,000 personally handed-out business cards to nearly $1 million in active carpentry backlog without spending a single dollar on running paid ads.
"We treat you like family. If something runs sideways in a build, my direct number is inside your agreement binder. I am still the person who answers when you text."
