About
Home building,Additions, Full renovations, ADUs, Structural building/repair & space builder | Portland Builder We focus on larger residential projects. Most of our work includes home additions, structural remodels, layout reconfigurations, adding square footage, kitchen/ bathroom renovations and custom homes. These projects include often design and planing. We provide help with any stage from ideas to what are the next steps. Don’t know where to start? We are here to help guide you through the process. We are a builder run design-build contractor, which means we help guide your project from early feasibility and budgeting through design, permitting, and construction. We are not subcontracting general contractors and do the building ourselves with our team of craftsmen. A big part of what we do is helping clients understand what’s actually possible — what can be changed, what it might cost, and whether it makes sense to move forward.

We were extremely happy with James' work including some novel ideas for shoring up our exterior wall when some framing work was needed on our load-bearing wall die to termite damage. We were surprised though when he repaired the damaged framing with dimensional lumber that was not flush to the old framing and drywall. He said that was the drywall contractor's job. We though he should have ripped the new framing to the old and our drywall said he has never had to make the framing even before installing drywall. So, we have an unexpected task for the drywall contractor to complete. A bit of a surprise that we did not even think of asking James about. Better communication would have helped.

James and Molly are an awesome team to work with. In the process of restoring my garage ceiling, they were patient and able to provide quality responses and detailed quotes for every question I had. I will be working with them again! :)

James did some work for me installing structural support and subfloor in a fix/flip house I purchased. I cannot stress enough how good he was! He knew exactly what needed to be done and got everything done exactly as discussed and was very professional and easy to work with. I'd highly recommend him to anyone needing help with a project at their house.

James and crew built a beautiful garden shed for us this summer. He came up with the design/build from several pictures I shared from Pinterest. The shed is just what we wanted! A dry place to store our garden tools with a carport for a dog kennel and potting bench. He also built a dog enclosure with composite panels and pressure treated wood. His work is top notch and we appreciated his attention to detail and quick response. We would highly recommend James and his crew!

Details: Sketches or a basic idea • New custom construction • Less than 500 sq ft • Home • I am the owner
