Our Story







"Both of us being born in Ft.Worth/Dallas, TX, we somehow ended up living and meeting on the same street in good ole Georgia and the rest is history. We are a husband and wife team, blessed with 3 kids and have been so fortunate to live on our little eight acre farm in Acworth right near Lake Allatoona. Our love for the trades, using our hands and creativity, and realizing that we can actually work pretty well together without a fight has led us to finally rebrand the contracting company and join forces to bring you Eight Acres Home & Design." - Erin








Mark, the main guy, and
his sidekick, Erin






Mark has been the owner of DWD Contracting, Inc for over a decade, but his background in construction and building go way back over 20 years when he first started working for a stair company in Kennesaw, then on to a furniture refinishing shop, then onto building anything and everything he had free time to build, teaching himself along the way. Over 10 years ago he made the leap to study hard and become a Georgia State Licensed Contractor and has kept his certifications and licensing up every year since. His attention to detail and enthusiasm about each project he is involved in is hard to find these days.

Erin is the owner of Erin's Attic Photography, and runs the family farm called Maple & Muscadines, which is home to over 40 animals of which about half of them are rescues. She has been involved in creating art of all types and design for more than 20 years, including dance, baking, crafting, gardening, home design, and photography/videography. She loves the details, the character, and the magical feeling that a good design can bring.

Oh, and she loves to find a good bargain.
