Construction. Confidence. Creativity.

Built by Her

Meet The Owner

Shanteau McFadden is a licensed General Contractor, construction educator, and the powerhouse behind Final Touch Construction. A proud Navy wife and dog mom, Shanteau brings both structure and soul to everything she builds — whether it’s a home, a business, or a classroom full of future tradeswomen.

She teaches NCCER Core Construction, where participants graduate with nationally recognized certifications in Core Construction and OSHA 30. Her goal? To open doors into the trades with skills that stick and credentials that matter.

Outside of the certification program, Shanteau runs hands-on woodshop and construction classes for high school students, and leads her signature Girl Power Tool and Women’s Power Tool Workshops, empowering women and girls to pick up the drill, take up space, and build without limits.

Her mission is simple and bold:
To break barriers, certify skills, and build confident leaders through construction — one project at a time.

She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.”
— Proverbs 31
