David Vatter, a self-employed carpenter and contractor for the past 18 years is always looking for the next challenge. He has experience with all phases of new and remodeling construction both interior and exterior. He also specializes in custom designed projects including decorative gates and fences with an emphasis on utilizing space for both decorative and functional applications. His last major project was converting a 50's style ranch residence to a more contemporary "prairie-style" floor plan. This included total renovation of the kitchen, master bedroom and bath and redesigning the living space for a more comfortable and interactive feel. This also included a craftsmen style fireplace with oak features and "cubies" above the mantel for displaying artwork. He also used decorative tile with a unique mosaic designed medallion in the foyer.
