I’ve been proud to call Volker my home for over 20 years and enjoy working on homes in and around our beautiful neighborhood.
A former concrete worker, I now mostly work on porch rebuilds, decks, fences and trim carpentry. Chances are, whatever you need done, I’ve already tackled it at my own home!
I show up when I say I will, deliver dependable work, and let you know right away if I’m unavailable or the job isn’t the right fit.
My name is Matt Cathlina and I’ve lived in the Volker neighborhood with my wife for over 20 years. We rented locally before finally buying our house on Bell St. in 2001. You’ve probably seen me out walking our dogs, Auggie and Winnie. I am an ex-union cement mason and laborer and a now work solo as a residential carpenter. I’ve acquired many skills working on my home out of necessity (it used to be a neglected rental property), and I’ve come to enjoy the restoration process. I have since rehabbed several other homes in the KC area. My interests include gardening, playing music and renovating our formerly abandoned cabin in rural Arkansas. Cathlina Construction was created so I can take on jobs close to home and in the neighborhoods I love, but I will go anywhere help is needed. I look forward to hearing from you!
Feel free to give me a call or shoot me an email describing your project. I’ll contact you to set up a time to visit and provide you with a free estimate. (Please note that I am not active on social media. Phone, text or email is the best way to reach me.)
