Core Values

History

Our Team

Deskins Inc.

Early Days

James started in construction as a 14-year-old carpenter’s helper. His first project was his own parents home. Working after school and summers until he graduated highschool, James eventually went to work as a carpenter for Fralin and Waldron, Inc. of Roanoke, VA, in 2006. These formative years taught him the dual importance of hard work and a job done right.

Project Management

After learning the fundamentals of all aspects of construction, in 2013 James was promoted to Project Manager over Fralin and Waldron’s New River Valley residential construction. Within two years he was entrusted with the oversight of light commercial construction and renovations for F&W at multiple sites throughout Virginia and North Carolina, specializing in the healthcare industry.

Our Company

By the Summer of 2019, James and his wife Sara knew it was time to create something new and together they launched Deskins, Inc. Over the past five years they have continued to develop their portfolio and vision for the company. Crucial to their vision is the careful selection of key team members who share the same values and the successful execution of foundational projects to the full satisfaction of their customers.

James Deskins

In 2019, James and Sara Deskins embarked on a journey to create a construction company that not only serves their community but also upholds their values. With James’ hands-on expertise in building and Sara’s unwavering support behind the scenes, Deskins Inc. was born out of a shared vision. They currently live in Botetourt County with their 3 children, Noah, Rylan, and Kate, who keep them busy with various extra-curricular activities. Together the Deskins are committed to excellence and integrity and are guided by their faith, which has been the cornerstone of their business.

Darren Beckner

Darren Beckner, the Vice President of Construction, is leader of all superintendents and responsible for overseeing all aspects of a construction project. He is also involved in planning and managing the project from its earliest stages, including developing a budget and identifying potential contractors, to the final stages of the final walkthrough and budget reconciliation. Mr. Beckner has been with Deskins Incorporated since 2020 and comes with almost 15 years of construction field experience.  Because of his commitment to excellence, in April 2024, James brought on Darren as partner, and they are working together to build an organization that honors God. Darren is married to Lauren. He has four daughters: Savannah, Brooklyn, Harper and Millie.
