Stan Glasgow started his career in construction as a developer and home builder. When the housing market crashed in the 80’s, he was forced out of the industry. When the United States recovered from the recession, Stan wanted to get back into construction but did not want to return to development or homebuilding, so he decided to start focusing solely on custom built garages. Since then, The Outback Builder has become the best at doing what we do - quality custom built garages. Attached, detached, room additions… Whatever you need, we can build it.
The Small Business Administration reported recently that 1 in 5 small businesses fail in their first year, 50% fail in 5 years, and only one third last 10+ years. We are extremely proud that The Outback Builder has been going strong for over 30 years and across three generations. Other companies may come and go, but you can count on us...because we’re not going anywhere.
Apprenticed in his father’s cabinet shop from the time he was 12 years old, Stan Glasgow has been in the building business for more than 60 years. Since opening shop in 1992, Stan and The Outback Builder have become synonymous with quality, custom built garages.
Like his father before him, Vince Glasgow was taught the construction business by his father Stan. Entering the company as a $7.00 an hour onsite laborer, he quickly learned the hands on aspects of construction. With his father Stan’s knowledge and his own hands on experience, Vince earned the position of company President. Vince made it his mission to continue the tradition of offering quality custom built garages at affordable prices and providing customers with financing options to fit their budget.
Since Sam was no taller than a doorknob, he has been on the job site with his father learning the family construction business. He has gathered knowledge from more than 70 years of combined construction experience from his papaw and father. It was inevitable that one day he would join the family business to eventually take over the reins to continue building quality, custom built garages for generations to come. Sam stepped into the role of president after his father Vince Glasgow passed away in 2021.
