Desk and Shelf Unit

This next HouseCall took Ron to the horse capital of the world: Lexington, Kentucky. It is here that Steve and Donna Hoertz live with their children, seven-year-old Tanner and five-year-old Caroline. Caroline had a large desk and shelving unit in her bedroom but Tanners room did not. Ron came to help even things out by creating a wall-mounted desk and shelving set ideal for a young boy.
