Tom

Engineer by degree. Builder by necessity. Dad by full-time miracle.

Tom is a nuclear engineer with a mechanical mind and a heart for sawdust. As a father of six, he didn’t get into DIY for the fun of it—he got into it because drywall doesn’t patch itself and hiring help costs more than diapers.What started as a financial necessity turned into a full-blown obsession with building smarter, fixing better, and doing it all with whatever was in the garage and a little ingenuity. From home additions to homestead hacks, Tom brings an engineer’s precision and a dad’s pragmatism to every project.

Whether you need a contractor who thinks three steps ahead or want to learn how to build it yourself—Tom’s got a blueprint and a backup plan.

Welcome to Nuke to Nails. It’s not just how he builds—it’s how he lives.
