Lance started working for his Grandfather’s custom cabinet shop when he was 15 years old to earn money to buy a car. His Grandfather owned a custom cabinet shop with a 5 man crew. He enjoyed working there so much during the summer that after he graduated from school, he continued in the cabinet business. His Uncle owned a nearby production cabinet shop with an 18 man crew. He would work for his Uncle when his Grandfather’s shop slowed down.

After coming home from the service in the early 70’s he worked for XA Cabinet Corporation which was the largest production cabinet shop in the Los Angeles area with over 430 workers. Lance worked at XA Cabinet for almost 10 years and during that time also did side jobs working toward owning and running his own cabinet business.

In 1978 Lance passed his contractors license test. He then opened his own shop in 1980 where he successfully did business. Lance operated his business in the same location for 24 years until he retired. Upon his retirement in 2004 he moved to Brady, Texas.

A little over a year after Lance retired he became bored. As people in town learned he did cabinet work they started asking him if he would do jobs for them. After such a great response from the people of Brady he decided to go into business again!

This time in the great state of Texas!
