“The” Definition of Custom Woodworking - the design and fabrication of one-of-a-kind, high-quality wooden items made to order from raw materials, tailored specifically to a client’s requirements, measurements, and stylistic preferences.

This is our specialty and sometimes that means busting out the chainsaw and doing some custom carving!

Fun fact- each of these logs is hollowed out at the intersection so that only the edges rest on each other.

We’re not just renovating homes.
We’re rebuilding the way people live.

A new standard—
where every home has the potential to feed you.

Gardens.
Greenhouses.
A return to the land.

This is the work behind the vision.
This is Upvallhalla.

I’ve been selected for the Entrepreneur of Impact competition—
and winning would help us bring this into every home we touch.

Days like this.
One. Shingle. At. A. Time.
At least we know AI isn’t coming for this job! It’s been a cramped and roughed up b***y kinda week, but no machine can replicate the look of cedar shake shingles! Props to all the carpenters out there, we FEEL YOU!

Please vote for me to become the next Entrepreneur of Impact! Winning this competition would allow our business to propel itself to the next level- renovating homes with self sustainable systems in place for the homeowners. Gardens, greenhouses, water catchment systems, and other passive energy systems will allow homeowners to lower their utility cost and increase their health and overall well-being.

It is our mission to not only breath new life into older, tired homes and make them available to homebuyers, but also to supply the homeowner with systems to succeed. To lower utility costs, increase health by growing their own fresh food and improve quality of life.

All purchased votes go to a non profit that supplies healthy food choices to kids in school.

This one is going to be special. We are incredibly excited to execute our clients vision into reality. More than ready to breathe some new life and true craftsmanship back along side the already amazing work that constructed long ago.

Fun times with mix and match new and old. We scored the sink from the rebuild center, it’s about as old as the house! (1910) and made a custom stand for it out of copper pipes. Keeping it classy with the bead board and updated with this awesome floor tile!

If your a sucker for before and afters, feast your eyes upon these! This 110 year old Portland home needed A LOT of TLC and we gave it that and more!
