About Us

Red Hammer Builders was founded in early 2010 by Andrew Courtney. The name is inspired by the red hammer he used in his grandfather’s work shop. Being in this work shop at such a young age inspired him to begin making things-as he got older these ‘things’ he liked making turned into a passion about building.

Before establishing Red Hammer Builders, Andrew earned his degree in Economics and Statistics from the University of Vermont. His economic background has been essential as a business owner, ensuring that all projects flow smoothly from start to finish.

Andrew refined his building techniques working with renowned timber-framing builders on Martha’s Vineyard. He continued to expand his knowledge and perfect his craft working with master builders in the smoky mountains of North Carolina and throughout Massachusetts. The crew at Red Hammer Builders cares about the quality and craftsmanship of their work.
