About | Tony Trapp Remodeling | Experienced Home Remodeler in Madison, WI

Abi R.
Lead Carpenter

Abi joined the Tony Trapp Remodeling team in May of 2022. After a 13-year career in accounting and seven years heading up her own subcontracting business, Abi decided it was time to get back out in the field and put her passion for problem solving to work. She loves meeting new people, their pets, and the unique challenges remodeling projects can present. When she’s not improving clients’ homes, she’s often working on her own fixer-upper, gardening, or spending quality time with her husband and cats, Patience and Trajan.

Kerry D.
Lead Carpenter

Originally from Washington, D. C., Kerry has called Madison home for 20 years and found a passion for the trades four years ago. After working on an organic vegetable farm, Kerry was drawn to the trades, especially to updating the interiors of older homes and enhancing their functionality. She's glad to be part of a supportive team and work alongside other female carpenters. In her free time, Kerry likes to forage for wild food and spend cozy days in watching horror movies.

Paula S.
Field Carpenter

Paula has been with the Tony Trapp Remodeling team since October of 2022. Her enthusiasm for restoring beauty and function began at an early age after she spent a summer refinishing antique furniture with her uncle, but it wasn’t until she became a team lead at Habitat for Humanity that Paula understood that remodeling is her calling. Paula’s background as an artist and art teacher guides her careful attention to detail and creative problem solving on projects. When Paula isn’t remodeling her own home, she’s often spending “crafternoons” with her daughters and their new puppy, Oscar.

Paul Z.
Project Manager and Scheduling

Paul joined the Tony Trapp Remodeling team in 2013. He has over 20 years of experience in the trades, including 10 years running his own remodeling business. Paul manages projects and does all the scheduling of our carpenters and trade partners to keep jobs running smoothly from pre-project planning to completion. Paul brings a broad knowledge of the construction process, attention to detail, and dedication to customer service. Outside of work, Paul enjoys fishing, paddling, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, hiking with his dog, playing guitar, and spending time with family at his cabin in northern Wisconsin.

Rogers S.
Support Carpenter

Rogers joined Tony Trapp Remodeling in January 2025 as a student in Madison College’s Construction and Remodeling program. Growing up in Uganda, Rogers always enjoyed using his hands to create something new. He finds it very fulfilling to walk into an area and envision how he could set up shelves or create a unique nook to transform the space. In his free time, he enjoys morning runs along Lake Mendota.

Tom M.

Tom has been working in the trades for nearly 30 years, joining the Tony Trapp Remodeling team in March 2018.
