Chris Carroll
Owner & Operator Mill on Wheels
Woods to Goods Expert
2011 NC GATE Program Small Business Success Story of the Year
My 28+ years experience in the home construction, woodworking and sawmill industries gives me the unique expertise to help landowners like you utilize trees from your property in building or updating your home. I can tell you what species of trees you have, what they are best used for and the lumber dimensions you’ll need.
Once you decide what species of trees you have and how to best use them, I bring my Woodmizer mobile saw mill to your property and mill your logs on site. They are stacked for optimal air drying and ready to use without the hassle of transporting them back and forth from a stationary mill.
What’s in YOUR Woods?
When I look at your woods, I don’t see just trees. I see a timber frame home, custom-carved porch posts, farmhouse tables – I see what those trees can become. Nothing brings me more joy than helping a fellow wood worker or landowner create a piece of art from trees on his or her property. Every single art piece I create has a story behind it – where it came from, the history of the land and the inspiration behind its creation.

If so, my consulting services are the solution.
