Matt Sherman – Builder

I grew up around construction. My grandfather and uncle were builders. My father was an architect and I grew up in a home he designed and built. As I matured I found much inspiration from my first family home. I knew it was special, different than anyone else’s home I had seen at the time. When I was a teenager I helped my mother and stepfather build their homestead. Using materials sourced from their 40 acres I learned everything from lumber manufacturing to solar powered electrical systems. I didn’t know that remodeling would become my profession but it has always been in my blood.

When my wife and I bought our first home it needed extensive work and we couldn’t afford to have someone else do it. I realized that skills needed to be honed and that began my professional career as a remodeler. Starting out as a carpenter, I learned many trades. This eventually led to me working for an established renovation company as a project manager which lasted for 10 years.

I have worked on projects that run the full gamut. From high-end, whole house rebuilds that required over a year to complete, to decks and porticos over a year to complete, to decks and porticos which last only a week or two. After 25 years in this business, my experience and passion for unique spaces is complimentary to almost any residential project.

When I think about what Sherman & Co is, I credit the relationships we have with our tradesmen. These are long time associates, some with decades of experience ready to serve you. They are well equipped and ready to go and I appreciate each and every one. Most have worked with me for over a decade, completing dozens of projects together. The trust and respect we have for each other is the foundation for S&Co.

I also can’t help but think about the relationships that we have with our clients. Relationships that might begin long before we ever swing a hammer. Larger projects may require design and extensive preparation months before the tools come out. During this time a relationship is built. When construction starts the client knows us, and we know them. It works very well and it is based on trust. A renovation can be very intrusive. Having workmen in your house for an extended period is stressful just to think about. We respect our client’s valuable time and their space. S&Co honors the fact that our client’s have chosen us to do their work. The trust that is built in the beginning assures that projects run smoother and that is something we take pride in.

At S&Co, it’s Built For You!
