Meet the founder
Cory Wiggins
Inspired by Holmes on Homes and a belief that homeowners deserve a contractor they can genuinely trust, Cory Wiggins founded 5 Star Craftsmanship with a simple goal: to make quality workmanship and reliability the standard, not the exception.
We understand that inviting a contractor into your home is a significant investment, which is why we treat every project—and every home—with the care and respect we would expect ourselves.
From the first conversation to the final detail, we prioritize honest communication, thoughtful craftsmanship, and doing the job right.
We believe the best contractors don't just leave behind beautiful spaces; they leave their clients feeling confident, comfortable, and proud of the decision they made.
