Carpenter or Craftsman? Know the Difference Before You Hire 

Remodeling wisdom from The Boss’s Daughter 

When you hire someone to work on your home, you’re not just paying for materials and labor; you’re investing in skill. But here’s the big question: are you getting a true craftsman or just a “jack of all trades”? 

Lately, you might have heard about the shortage of highly trained craftsmen in the construction industry. These are the men and women who have spent years mastering one specific trade to a high level of expertise. Unfortunately, many contractors have adapted to this shortage by relying on a single worker to juggle multiple trades. 

The problem? 
 That “multi-tasker” may have basic training in a dozen areas but deep expertise in only one or two. The result can be uneven work, strong in some places, noticeably weaker in others. In the rush to “just get it done,” quality takes a back seat. 

At Toupin Construction, we take a different path. 
 We hire and train true craftsmen, people who have dedicated themselves to mastering their chosen trade. If your project needs an electrician, we send an electrician. If you need a carpenter, you get a carpenter. 

Some people call this “old school.” We call it the right way to buildIt’s a tradition we’re proud to uphold, passing down finely honed skills from seasoned journeymen to the next generation of eager apprentices. 

Why it matters to you: 

  • Better quality: Every detail reflects years of training and hands-on experience. 

  • Fewer mistakes: Specialized knowledge means problems get solved faster and correctly the first time. 

  • Long-lasting results: Craftsmanship holds up both in beauty and function. 

The confidence and pride of a true craftsman show in every cut, seam, and finish. And when you choose Toupin Construction, you can be sure the work on your home isn’t just “good enough.” It’s done by someone who knows their trade inside and out.
