The Harris family
Since 1962

Built on the Mel Harris name.

Mel and Sue Harris started their home-improvement business in Fort Smith, Arkansas in 1962. Over six decades, that family commitment to doing right by the customer earned the trust of homeowners across the River Valley, Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas, with more than 40,000 projects and counting.

Harris Outdoor Living carries that name outdoors. Same family, same standard, now focused on the kitchens, screen rooms, decks and fire features that turn a backyard into your favorite room.

We do things differently around here. Customer satisfaction isn't just our commitment, it's what this company was built on.The Harris Family
