Howard Henderson began developing his love of carpentry building dories and repairing lifeguard towers while working as a southern California beach lifeguard in the mid 1960's. As he and his wife Sharon traveled from beach to mountains pursuing their life-style, carpentry remained an avocation. In the late 1970's living in Sun Valley, ID, Howard began his career working on custom homes.

Since those early days, Henderson Construction has had a presence in the custom home/fine finish work industry on projects in Colorado, Arizona, Idaho, California, Washington and now back in Colorado. From 2005-2009 the company was fortunate to have Miles Henderson on board with his creative and innovative ideas. For the past few years Howard has been exploring the functional art market, creating one-offs in a variety of usable, unique home pieces.
