In fact, the company is using the loss as an impetus to
build bigger and better.

The millwork operation does a lot more work with ma-

growth, but not so much that the millwork operation
becomes oversized. Construction will always remain
the bigger operation, with the millwork as the “baby
brother,” Ginns said, in an effort to stay in the custom
niche.
