Our Story
Service, from our family to yours.
For 35 years at QFC Inc., integrity is our cornerstone. We value working closely with our clients to provide superior quality as efficiently as possible, and solve problems through our dedicated team of professionals. Clients consistently thank us for our timeliness and integrity.
As a family of veterans, our company mindset focuses on service, from our family to yours. Brett served in the Air Force as an Avionics Instruments Specialist before moving to North Carolina in 1985, working his way from framing laborer to finish carpenter, and founding Quality Finish Carpentry Inc. in 1996.
Today QFC builds custom homes as our clients desire, and has become deeply involved in large-scale custom renovations and additions across Winston-Salem — Ardmore, Downtown Winston, West Highlands, Old Salem, Buena Vista, Country Club, Old Town Country Club, and Merrimont.

Why QFC?
We value working closely with our clients to provide superior quality as efficiently as possible, and solve problems through our dedicated team of professionals. Clients consistently thank us for our timeliness and integrity.
High Quality / Low Volume
We deliberately take on fewer projects so the same hands stay on your home from first demo to final punch list. Quality is not something we scale — it is something we protect.

Brett Sipe
01Owner, General Contractor
Brett grew up in blue collar Johnstown, PA. After high school, he served in the Air Force as an Avionics Instruments Specialist. By 1985, Brett and Shari moved to NC to pursue a new career.
Brett began as a framing laborer and progressed into finish carpentry by 1988. He started Quality Finish Carpentry Inc. in 1996. The following year he began building homes as a licensed contractor. As the market shifted in 2009, Brett became heavily involved in large scale custom renovations and additions; he still builds custom homes as desired by QFC's clients.
Brett enjoys partnering with clients to turn their hopes into reality. He possesses high attention to detail, problem solving, and strives for excellence on each project.
