Sick of living in someone else’s idea of luxury from a bygone era? When your primary suite isn’t suited to your needs, the little frustrations pile up as soon as your day begins. The paneling is dated, your jacuzzi tub has seen better days, and you’ve stubbed your toe on the corner of the vanity too many times. It’s time to revitalize your space to begin your day aligned with your own routines, preferences, and plans.

Our more than 30 years of construction experience in the area gives us plenty to passionately say about creating the perfect primary suite on a realistic budget for our area. Our design-build process means our designers partner with you to create the perfect plan, and our construction team executes your design for a seamless result.

More than three-fourths of Americans over age 50 say they want to stay in their own homes as they get older, but only 1% of the nation’s housing stock includes features designed to support aging in place safely and comfortably. If you’re considering a remodel of your Portland-area home, it’s the perfect time to build such features into your plans. Failing to accommodate your future needs signs you up for another remodel down the line.

Most people don’t have enough cash sitting around to pay for a major home addition or remodel — although that’s probably the best way to finance such a project — so they need to explore the options available for construction loans to remodel.

Let there be light! Humans are happier, healthier, and more productive when they receive enough natural sunlight. Though we can argue about how much natural light penetrates through the Portland clouds this time of year, we can all agree that we should make the most of the free resources radiating down from the sky.
