A Tale of Two Craftsmen

In 2007, Brent Fox and Chris Whidby founded Bending Chestnut Construction — two builders with shared roots and a common trade. Both grew up in Leiper's Fork. Both come from families who've been respected businessmen and neighbors in Williamson County for generations.

Brent Fox

Brent is a Leiper's Fork native, fourth generation. He came to construction after years of touring with his family's Christian country music group. Today, he lives in Williamson County with his wife, Chastity. When he's not on a job site, he's probably fishing.

Chris Whidby

Chris is also from Leiper's Fork. He's a husband, father of three daughters, and a pretty good banjo picker. When he's not building homes, you'll find him at church or playing at local events
