About

Trey started From the Ground Up in 2008 while still in High School at Susquehannock. An avid soccer player, Trey went to PSU to continue his soccer career and then moved his wife and first son to VA to work for one of the largest commercial landscape companies in the country. Wanting to be closer to family and home, he moved back and began a career with Kinsley Construction. Beginning as a Project Engineer and working his way up to Project Management, Trey learned all of the ins and outs of construction and building. While working his full time job and juggling a wife and 4 kids, Trey was running From the Ground Up. He decided to “dive into the deep end” and take his childhood dream to the next level and do this as a full time profession. With his years of experience in outdoor living and construction, Trey has used his knowledge to push From the Ground Up to the next level. Trey still lives locally with his wife Samantha (his middle school sweetheart) and their 4 kids (Camdyn, Jase, Cooper and Wrenley). Along with founding and running From The Ground Up, Trey and his family started a youth racing team, Chilcoat Racing. The team focuses on quarter midget racing and currently all three sons are on the team and following their dreams.

Sam has always been an integral part of the company. From Day 1 her support has allowed this company to grow and prosper. When Trey was feeling overwhelmed and starting to loose grip on the influx of calls and messages, Sam stepped up and took control of the office. Sam helps keep the business on track everyday with communicating with clients and future clients, bookkeeping, scheduling consultations and much much much more. With four kids, three dogs and a home to take care of, we do not know how she tackles it all!

Our most exciting industry affiliation is with the powerhouse company of Dewalt. From the Ground Up has been purchasing and using Dewalt products for years. This was driven by the need for a great dependable tool and the ability to interchange tools with one battery platform. A few years back, DeWalt reached out the Trey and asked if From the Ground Up would be interested in taking a look at some new products and giving a professional review. Since then, we have tested many products, most have not even hit the market yet! Some of these products are still under design and are super secretive, but trust us when we say that they will change the game! DeWalt and From the Ground Up are two companies that strive to do better every day and this is one of the many reasons we work together so well.

Here at From the Ground Up we have the need for multiple different types of machines. Everyday we are running multiple skid loaders, mini skid loaders and excavators. We heavily rely on the the best equipment company around, Caterpillar. Not only do we love their equipment, but we have made strong personal connections with the staff at both local branches. They may sell brand name equipment, but the local dealers are all locally owned and operated.
