Serving Kermit and nearby WV communities
There is no spare room in a Kermit house and no spare ground outside it. So storage here has to come from the parts of a room nobody counts: above the doors, above the windows, and the last two feet before the ceiling.
We'll reach out to schedule a look.

Had them out after the back steps started going soft underfoot. He came and looked properly before quoting anything, and told me the structure underneath was still sound — so it ended up a smaller job than I had braced myself for. Turned up when he said he would, cleaned up after himself, and the price at the end was the price we agreed. Not much more you can ask for.

Called on a Tuesday and had someone out the same week. What I appreciated most was being told straight what needed doing now and what could safely wait until spring. No pressure and no trying to talk me into the bigger version of the job. It has held up fine through the winter since.

The quote came through itemised and the final bill matched it, which has honestly not been my experience with everyone around here. They worked around an awkward driveway without once making it my problem, and left the place tidier than they found it. Would have them back.

Fair price, showed up on time, tidy work. No complaints.
Send a few photos and we'll tell you what it'll take — free written quote, no pressure.
Every room has a strip of wall above the door height that runs the whole way round and holds nothing. In a house with generous ceilings — which most of these are — that is a foot or more of continuous wall at a level that costs no floor space and blocks no light.

What you get when Mackwood does your shelving & storage — and what we won't do.

From first call to finished work — no surprises in between.
Step 1
Call, text, or send a message with what you're looking to build or repair. No form to fill in and no call centre — it comes straight to us, and you'll get a real answer about whether it's something we do.
Step 2
A few photos are often enough to tell us what we're dealing with. Where it isn't — anything structural, anything hidden underneath — we'll come out and look properly before quoting rather than guessing from the kerb.
Step 3
You get a written quote that itemises the work, so you can see what you're paying for and what you aren't. If we think part of it isn't worth doing, we'll say so. No pressure and no surprises at the end.
Step 4
We turn up when we said we would, work clean, and haul the offcuts away with us. The job gets built to last in this climate — and we'll walk it with you before we call it finished.
We'll come and look, then tell you straight — including if it isn't worth doing.
Straight answers to what we get asked most.
Above the doors. Every room has a continuous band of wall at that height holding nothing, and a shelf run there costs no floor space and blocks no light. It suits seasonal and rarely-used things.
Built properly, yes — a front edge or lip so nothing slides off, and fixed into framing rather than into plaster. Something falling from head height is a different matter from something falling off a low shelf, so it gets built accordingly.
Anything heavy, and anything you need often. High storage earns its place with light, boxed, twice-a-year things. If getting it down is a two-person job, it will not get used.
Yes, about thirty minutes from Williamson on US-52. West Virginia side only — licensing rather than distance.
No. We stay on the West Virginia side — that's a licensing matter, not a distance one. Kermit itself is well inside the area we cover.
Yes. Flood damage in framing is biological, not immediate — the wetting starts rot that works through joist ends and post bottoms over years. The floor above it can feel solid the whole time.
No, it's normal in town here. It affects staging and carry time, which we allow for in the quote.
We handle shelving & storage across Williamson and the surrounding West Virginia communities.
The full picture
Most people are buying a result, not a list of tasks. Pick a topic to see what we look at before quoting in Kermit.
A shelf run at that height around one or two walls takes the seasonal and rarely-used things out of the cupboards you actually need. It is out of the way, out of eye line, and it does not make a small room feel smaller because it sits above where people look.
It works best for light, bulky things and for anything used a few times a year. It is not the place for heavy items, and we size the supports for what is going up rather than assuming.
High storage is only useful if reaching it is realistic. That means thinking about what goes up there — light, boxed, rarely needed — and where the ladder or step lives, because storage that needs a two-person operation gets used once.
It also means the fixings matter more, not less. Something coming off a shelf at head height is a different event from something sliding off a low one, so high runs get a lip or a front edge and get fixed into framing without exception.
We would rather build one well-placed run you use than three you cannot reach.
Lots here sit close to the street with limited parking and often nowhere to leave a trailer. Shelving is one of the easier jobs for that — material carries in as boards and gets cut in the room.
Kermit is about thirty minutes from Williamson up US-52 along the river. We work the West Virginia side only, which is licensing rather than distance.
If the house is low against the river, we would keep the storage you care about off the ground floor entirely. High shelving upstairs does two jobs at once here.
Kermit is a small town on a narrow flat right against the Tug Fork, and the housing is packed onto what level ground there is — older wood-framed homes, close together, most on block or pier foundations with covered porches as standard. There is not much room between houses and not much room behind them, so additions here tend to go up or onto the porch rather than out the back.
The Tug Fork is the whole story in Kermit. The town sits low against the river and has taken water repeatedly, and what that leaves behind is rot in the parts of a house nobody inspects — sill plates, the ends of floor joists where they bear, post bottoms, and the base of exterior door frames. It shows up long after the water is gone, which is why a floor that feels sound is not evidence of much.
About thirty minutes from Williamson up US-52 along the river, and the drive itself is easy. Working in town is the tighter part: lots sit close to the street with limited parking, so material gets carried and there is often nowhere to leave a trailer. We plan the day around that rather than treating it as a surprise.
