The Story Behind Our Success

How It All Began

1974

Our Beginnings

In 1974, our journey began when my dad purchased 10 acres on 30th Street and moved one of his job site trailers to the site as he wound down his construction company. Seeking a new direction, he decided to venture into trusses. With a radial arm saw, a computer, and some lumber, he took the first steps. Initially starting small with just a few employees, wood framing tables, and a JD Adams flip jig, his early efforts laid the foundation for what would become a thriving business.

Building a Foundation

Mike Walker, with his extensive network in the framing and construction industry of Northern California, played a crucial role in our success. His connections and experience were instrumental, even leading to the sale of trusses to his own framing company. Alongside him was his partner, Mavis Bullock, who handled taxes, payroll, and receivables, providing the business acumen needed to drive growth. Their collaboration and partnership lasted over 35 years, creating a strong, enduring foundation for the company.

Evolving Through the Years

As a child, I (Curtis Walker) spent summers with my dad at the site, playing in the fields and the office until I was old enough to work. My older brother Michael also contributed to the business from an early age. Eventually, both of us found our permanent roles in the family business. I became Secretary in 2012, and following my dad's retirement in 2016 and my brother's passing in 2017, I continued to lead the company. Despite these challenges, we have successfully completed tens of thousands of projects.
