Get matched with top basement remodelers in Colville, WA

"Lisa is a genius! With creativity and precision, she maximized every nook and cranny of our tiny 1906 cottage and brought it into the 21st century, while maintaining its original charm and character. Our "new" home is so much more functional now, and a delight to live and work in. Lisa took the lead on our projects (kitchen, bathroom, basement), but Adam is equally savvy. Both are fantastic listeners, brainstormers, collaborators, total professionals and all-around lovely human beings. We highly recommend Christie Architecture, and look forward to working with them again in the future!"

"The project was essentially a remodel of a circa 1950's beach cabin with a small addition. We chose Baker and Son on the recommendation of our neighbor who had used them to build a detached garage. Our plans were relatively simple at first: build the addition, expand the kitchen, build a new bathroom and create a new entry. As work was underway, it became clear through the advice of Baker and Son that our kitchen was too big and out of scale for the cabin. We ended up eliminating some walls and opening up the cabin in such a way that created one large room but still a separate kitchen, dining and living. It was a huge improvement to the original design. In addition to the interior work, Baker and Son completely overhauled the exterior which included new windows and siding. New structural headers were required because they didn't exist. Also, since the cabin is post and pier construction, they leveled and strengthen the existing structure. Work included new skirting as well. Their attention to detail was very impressive. They are masters at creative problem solving, patient, responsive and positive. They have a very strong sense of design. We were never pressured into quick decisions. The contract arrangement for our project was essentially time and material because formulating a bid on an old cabin remodel would involve too many unknowns. We agreed to a fair hourly rate and all material and subcontracted work we paid directly with no additional overhead or fee. This saved us money. Since we lived out of town, Baker and Son were so well connected with various vendors and subcontractors, it simplified making arrangements. Now that our project is complete, we are so excited about the end result! We would highly recommend using Baker and Son Construction for any project."

"Curtis Dean of LTJ Builders met with us numerous times as we were planning our house and checked in with us as construction was being completed. He was willing to work with us and the ideas we had and made suggestions along the way as to how he thought things might be better done. He never forced us to go with his suggestions but in some cases they make a lot more sense then what we had originally designed. All the workers were very professional and the jobs were performed as promised and on time. He took pictures along the way of the entire building process and gave those to us on a CD. We are very happy about the end result and things that we found that needed to be corrected were addressed and taken care of immediately. <br />"

"we worked w/tim a few years ago in the siting of a cabin on our property on a remote island in the san juans. we were happy to be able to tap into his many years of practical experience designing and bldg in the islands and in seattle. his fresh perspective, walking our 3+ acre site w/us, confirmed the siting assumptions we'd made and allowed us to move fwd w/our building knowing that we'd left few, if any, stones unturned. his design sense speaks to both contemporary and/or traditional/rustic design -- appropriate design being the key to his vision -- he understands the value of not imposing a design on a site but rather working w/the landform and design to assure a superb fit. tim helped us transform our bldg from ideas to a buildable design. he understands and is highly experienced in the bldg process and is well-versed in the pragmatics, from programming, to schematic design to siting to contractor evaluation and can take a scheme to fruition! he really helped us move our project forward. in the event of a contractor dispute, tim can be helpful in setting things straight and helping to get things back on track and again, moving forward. he's also quite astute in confirming budgeting assumptions, bringing his deep, real world experience to bear on a project. that said, we'd be happy to work w/tim again on any building project we undertake -- he's easygoing, a solid listener and a terrific resource for any project you might want to undertake."

"From the start of our job Stoya was professional, made excellent recommendations, showed up when she said she would and was a extremely diligent worker.  She is a perfectionist and accomplished her tasks in a timely manner.  She's understanding of the stress involved with remodeling and is a careful listener. The best contractor I have ever had in my home.  I purchased some materials with her direction. She also had dead trees removed and hauled away all debris for $1800 which included seven cedars and one giant birch tree. Excellent company. <br />"

"He was very professional. Always on time, prompt. Price quoted was the price I paid. He was available for questions afterwards for any clarification. I got good value for the money."

"It went well.  The men were courteous and professional and trustworthy.  <br />"

"The entire job went well. Jose came in and estimated the time it would take, told us how he would do the job, and then proceeded to do the work in the timeframe he estimated. The work went well and the job was completed within the week he had planned to perform the work. The work was excellent and we were satisfied with the quality. I would definitely hire him again."

"Clawson Construction did a fantastic job! Dave took an amazing amount of time with us, and covered every detail of our project. He brought to our attention, many details that we would not have thought about in our planning process. Our 2nd story deck was to be built over the top of the lower patio and we wanted the patio to be water proof. We chose Arideck by Wahoo Decks; an aluminum surface with a channeling system for water (amazing to date!). A newer decking system, Dave and his team took his time to study the Arideck system and its construction and communicated with the Wahoo Deck company. The construction team did a fabulous job! They even seemed to enjoy constructing the deck! Our deck is beautiful!"

"He’s very responsible and is a very nice man. You call him and he’s very good about calling you back. He’s very dependable and shows up when he says he will. You never have to pay up front; you get a bill when the work is done which I like."
