Meet the Owner
Dennis Carter started Poor Boys Custom in 2010.
After 25+ years in the trades, Dennis built this business on a simple idea: do quality work, charge a fair price, and treat every home like it belongs to a neighbor. That's still how we operate today — out of Andrews, SC, serving the Lowcountry one project at a time.

"Dennis, we are so impressed with your work — you turned our ugly duckling fireplace into a swan. We love the way the whitewash looks. You definitely deserve more than 5 stars. Looking forward to working with you again."
"I recently had Dennis Carter and his crew at Poor Boys Custom paint my 4 bedroom house prior to putting it on the market. His team was very attentive to detail and did an excellent job. Highly recommended!"
