Co-Founder

Jeremy Lewis brings a lifetime of service, craftsmanship, and hands‑on expertise to K&L Custom Marble. After a distinguished 25‑year career with the Fort Smith Fire Department—retiring at the rank of Captain—Jeremy transitioned his commitment to excellence into the world of custom marble artistry.

 

Like many dedicated firemen, Jeremy never limited himself to a single trade. Off duty, he amassed a wealth of practical experience. He brings thirteen years of concrete work, fifteen years of owning and operating a property rental and construction business, and extensive experience crafting custom concrete countertops for builders throughout Northwest Arkansas. His ability to blend durability, function, and beauty has earned him a reputation for quality and precision.

 

Jeremy also served 23 years on the Fort Smith Fire Department’s Hazmat Team, where he played a key role in emergency response, planning, and technical field operations. For six of those years, he served as the Western Arkansas Hazmat/WMD Coordinator, overseeing regional preparedness and interagency coordination.

 

With decades of leadership, problem‑solving, and craftsmanship behind him, Jeremy now channels that same dedication into creating custom marble pieces built to last. At K&L Custom Marble, his mission is simple: deliver exceptional workmanship with integrity, reliability, and pride.
