Co-Owner & Master Craftsman

With over 25 years of experience in carpentry, general maintenance, and custom woodworking, Rick Hansen is the heart of Hansen Handiworks, LLC. His dedication to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail has made him a trusted expert in both home repairs and custom woodworking projects.


Rick's journey began when he graduated from NDSCS, Wahpeton, ND, in 1989 with a degree in diesel mechanics. He spent several years working offshore in the oil exploration industry, maintaining high-volume air compressors on ships. Later, Rick joined his father in the custom cabinetry and furniture business at the Country Craftsman in Onawa, Iowa, where they worked together for six years.


He then established Kicker Construction in North Dakota, where he specialized in general contracting for 14 years. His work included cabinets, trim, household installations, windows, doors, siding, concrete, and landscaping. After a brief stint working for American Crystal Sugar in maintenance, eventually becoming a supervisor, Rick returned to self-employment to pursue his passion for carpentry and creative woodworking. His commitment to bringing clients' visions to life is evident in every project, regardless of its size, and his expertise ensures that each job is completed with precision and care.
