My name is Billy Caldwell. I was born and raised in Memphis Tennessee and grew up just off of the University of Memphis campus. I graduated from Messick High School in 1974. My high school sweetheart (Gwen) and I were married in 1976. We have been married for 40 years. We have 2 sons Grant and Bart. Bart is my partner in the business. He is our youngest.

I was employed as an Air Traffic Controller from 1987 until 2012 with a mandatory retirement age of 56, which seemed like a good idea until I reached 56. The last 10 years I was a crew manager.

This experience has given me the skill set to manage projects. Bart, who went to Briarcrest High School was living in Cleveland Tennessee attending Chattanooga Tech and became a welder. He worked his way through school as a white-water raft guide on the Ocoee River, and in his off time, rock climbing, kayaking and fly fishing. He worked as a welder for 2 years for a machine fabrication company.

In Summer of 2012, after I retired, Bart expressed interest in returning home to find work as a welder here. We decided that we could start a business in the trades since he was taught how to read plans, hold to schedules and that quality was of the utmost importance. I had experience as a scheduler and a time manager. There was still more to learn though.
