Chris Spain has been in the building business for over twenty years. When Chris graduated from high school, he started doing carpentry work and eventually framed houses. Since 2008 he has been at Parsons with a smile on his face, eagerly awaiting the next customer he could help with the knowledge he gained from those years in the field. Chris can sit down and figure your roof, layout a deck, or advise you on windows and doors. He has worked in all aspects of the building business and knows what it takes to go from a dream on paper, to the dream house you wanted.
