Henry Austin

Carpenter I | Residential Construction

Henry began his career in residential construction on Block Island, Rhode Island, where he discovered that carpentry was a natural fit for his creativity, problem-solving mindset, and passion for working with his hands. As a carpenter, he values the relationships built throughout the construction process and believes that trust, collaboration, and a strong sense of community are essential to creating exceptional work.

Drawing on his experiences as both an artist and a Maine sea kayak guide, Henry is committed to building homes that complement and respect their natural surroundings. Growing up in rural Wyoming shaped his appreciation for the connection between people and place, a perspective that continues to influence his approach to craftsmanship today.

Outside of work, Henry enjoys spending time in his art studio, exploring the Maine coast by sea kayak, and supporting his wife, Sophia, as she completes her medical residency in Portland.
