Built on Service, Craftsmanship, and Doing the Job Right in Hope Mills, NC
Stogie Craft, LLC started with two Special Forces engineers, a shared love of working with our hands, and a belief that there was a better way to serve people in the construction industry. A large part of our military careers involved construction, dirt work, and solving complex problems in the field. When we launched Stogie Craft in 2021, that experience came right along with us.
As a Christian and veteran-owned business, the values behind our work are just as important to us as the finished product. We believe in treating people with respect, taking pride in what we build, and giving every project the attention it deserves. Too often, we’ve seen customers left frustrated by rushed jobs, poor communication, careless construction, or work that simply wasn’t built correctly. We’ve even been called in to repair projects where those shortcuts became someone else’s problem.
We wanted to build something different.
Whether we’re tackling heavy excavation, clearing land, solving property challenges, building an outdoor structure, remodeling a home, or creating a custom piece of furniture, we approach the work with patience and purpose. We’d rather pay attention to the details and build it right than race through a project just to get to the next one.
Woodworking is also a big part of who we are. We blend traditional techniques with modern ideas to create everything from epoxy tabletops to one-of-a-kind furniture. The same philosophy carries through everything we build: make it functional, make it beautiful, and make it last.
At the end of the day, our customers aren’t numbers on a schedule. They’re trusting us with their homes, properties, and ideas, and we want the finished work to be something both they and we can be proud of.
Our Values
What We Bring to Every Project
Our Values
Special Forces Engineering
Between my business partner and me, we bring 35 combined years of Special Forces engineering experience to our craftsmanship. A large part of our military careers involved construction, dirt work, engineering, and solving complicated problems in the field, so working with our hands and finding practical solutions is second nature to us. That experience has carried directly into the way we approach Stogie Craft. Whether we’re building a deck, installing a fence, working through a difficult excavation, remodeling part of a home, or creating something custom, we look at the entire project and pay attention to the details that can make a difference in the finished result. Our military backgrounds also taught us the value of discipline, accountability, and adapting when a project presents an unexpected challenge. We bring that mindset to every job because we believe good craftsmanship starts with understanding the problem, developing the right approach, and taking pride in how the work gets done.
We believe standing behind our craftsmanship should mean more than simply saying we do quality work. That’s why we offer warranties that go well beyond what customers commonly see in the industry. Our fencing comes with a 3-year warranty, compared with the 90-day to one-year coverage often offered elsewhere. Depending on the project, our decks include warranties ranging from 5 to 20 years, while many competitors rarely provide coverage beyond three years. Those warranties are important to us because we’re not interested in rushing through a project, collecting a check, and moving on to the next job. We want to build something we’re comfortable putting our name on long after we leave the property. From the materials and construction methods we use to the attention we give the smaller details, our goal is to create work that lasts. If we expect our customers to invest in us, we believe we should be willing to stand behind that work.
Our customers aren’t numbers on a schedule, and we never want them to feel that way. We operate with a full customer satisfaction guarantee because we believe the job isn’t finished simply because the construction is complete. We want our customers to be completely happy with the final result, and we won’t consider the project done until they are. That commitment influences the way we communicate, solve problems, and handle the details throughout a job. We’ve seen what happens when people are rushed through projects or left feeling like their concerns don’t matter, and Stogie Craft was built to take a different approach. If something needs our attention, we want to address it rather than hurry off to the next project. For us, customer satisfaction is about more than the finished structure or improvement. It’s about providing the level of service, accountability, and care we would want someone to bring to our own property.
