Rob Hinds

Robert joined the Mētis Construction team in the summer of 2020. Well known to worker-owner, Josh, Robert came highly recommend to us. He is a very well rounded craftsman who is capable of performing any task asked of him, at a high level. In addition to being a polished carpenter, he is also an accomplished metal worker with over 10 years of fabrication experience. He places a high value on efficiency, as such, he enjoys creating an accurate and detailed plan of action so that a given task is done quickly, correctly and to the client’s specifications the first time. Completely at home in commercial and residential construction, Robert has worked on a variety of projects since starting at Mētis. Some of his best work with Mētis can be found at Bounty Kitchen: Capitol Hill, Katsu-ya, Hello Robin: University Village, Pie Bar Food Van, Treat Cookies and the Jensen Boat House renovation.

Robert brings to our company over 16 years of combined construction experience. He began his construction career flipping homes with his best friend and his friends father. This provided Robert with a foundation of knowledge and basic construction skills. Wanting to continue to grow as a carpenter, he then began working for a premier museum and public spaces builder. While working for this company, Robert honed his carpentry skills and had the opportunity to learn MIG and TIG welding in aluminum and steel.

Outside of work, one of Robert’s passions is miniature gaming; where he paints and customizes figures, vehicles and terrain for use in gaming. It is his form of meditation and personal creative outlet.
