We met Ron at the Sisters Harvest Fair last fall. We were happy when he was able to schedule our small project of refacing our bathroom vanity, building a matching medicine cabinet, and fabricating a new counter top. Ron was a pleasure to work with. He's a craftsman and we love the barn wood he choose. He even gave us photos of the barn it came from. We started as strangers and finished as friends.

We cannot recommend Ron enough. He remodeled our two (and one half) bathrooms, and we love the result. He gave us a reasonable quote and was conscientious about sticking to it. The guys he brought in (for plumbing, tiling etc) were excellent and—like everyone Ron works with—genuinely pleasant and thoughtful. Beyond his evident craftsmanship, we also valued Ron for his aesthetic knowledge and instinct. This was very important as our bathrooms were especially challenging in size and architectural design. Factoring in our spending limits, practical needs, and tastes, he consistently came up with

Our new home had an eyesore of a fireplace, with a giant cabinet above it for a cathode-ray television. It was the first thing you’d see when you walked in the house. Ron transformed it into a beautiful, distinctive, eye-catching piece that perfectly fits the space. Undoubtedly, it added huge value to the home, and it was done very quickly and professionally. I know there are a lot of horror stories about contractors out there, but Ron will restore your faith. We felt like we won the lottery with him.

Ron was the only one that could have built our "stairs" up to our loft in a creative and safe way. The result blended perfectly with our space and everyone loves the result. Ron builds with detail and thought beyond your imagination. He worked on the job when we weren't there and treated our place like it was his own. I will definitely use him again. We feel so lucky to have found him.

Ron was recommended to us for our recent home remodel. We had just purchased the home and it was in need of updating. Ron took on the project and transformed our home into something more beautiful than we had even imagined. Ron completely remodeled our kitchen and bathrooms, and installed new flooring throughout. When faced with a challenging situation, Ron stepped up and handled it with integrity and professionalism. We are very pleased with the end result and would highly recommend Ron!

We wanted to do a remodel of our condo.We weren’t sure what we wanted except we wanted it to look “lodge”. Ron had great ideas and understood what we were looking for. He was super easy to work with, is a true artisan and we love how everything looks. I highly recommend his work. We couldn’t Be happier.

Thanks to Ron we now have a beautiful front porch!! I could not believe the transformation...this was quite a mess and it is now completely renovated. The pride in workmanship really shows, he and his right hand man Taylor are the best in my book and a pleasure to work with. Thanks to his knowledge and attention to detail we have a lovely and solid front porch that will last through the years as it was done correctly and with care. Can't recommend him highly enough!!!

Ron Brown has my highest possible recommendation. We bought a log home in Bend, with the plan of making minor improvements. After meeting Ron, we felt comfortable putting the job in his hands, and we couldn't have made a better decision. A "small" renovation turned in to many months of work and a major remodel (our decision to keep adding more jobs to his to-do list!). Since we live out of the area, we had to communicate long distance, and trust Ron to make decisions when we were not always there. We soon realized that, not only is he a skilled craftsman, but also has a great

We purchased a condo in Bend that needed some artistic renovations. Since we don't live in Bend, we were a bit nervous about finding a good, reliable contractor. We saw Ron on Yelp and reached out. He returned my call immediately which we really appreciated and in talking to him, I felt totally at ease and knew he was the right person for the project. He got the keys to our condo before we did!! He kept us in the loop and he kept everything moving on schedule. Above all, he did a fantastic job! Not only did he do the renovations that we envisioned, he made suggestions for bettering our ideas

I had fire damage to the outside of my house, Ron was able to save the wood and gutter (I thought had to be replaced for sure). He recycled some materials he had which saved me money. My house now looks like nothing happened! A huge relief for my husband and I! Ron is friendly, prompt, knowledgeable & kept me informed. I will use him for all my projects.
