Anthony (AJ) Durkton (right) and Julian Gaul (left) established Live Oak Fine Cabinetry and Millwork, Inc. in 2024.

​

AJ previously owned and operated GhostTree WoodWorks. Julian previously owned and operated Halocline Studio. They both were servicing the same area and doing similar work. After crossing paths many times and sharing in the challenges of running a business solo, they decided it made a lot of sense to team up - Live Oak was born!
