Neilson Construction
Neilson Construction
Neilson Construction is a team of professional builders specializing in custom remodels, additions, and new construction in PDX and surrounding areas.
"We had a great experience with Neilson Construction. Our house had two natural gas fireplaces that needed to be replaced, as well as an entrance floor. For reasons that aren’t really pertinent here, we ended up not only replacing the fireplaces themselves, but remodeling the entire fireplace surrounds. Neilson was the general contractor on the project, coordinating with electricians, fireplace installers, and their own crew of carpenters and tilers. Everybody showed up on time, every time. The communication from Neilson’s home office was top-notch, they cleaned up every evening, and the quality of the work was outstanding. They also stuck to their bid. I’d hire Neilson again in a second!"

Stone By Stone Construction LLC.
Stone By Stone Construction LLC. is owned by Peter Warnke. Peter works with local sub-contractors who he has developed relationships with over his 12 years in the industry. Creating a consistent ongoing relationship with people in the industry allows budgets and schedules to be met on a consistent basis. We require no money down and bill projects on a completion basis once a month. If your project will be completed within a months time then you would only see one bill at the end of project. We accept credit cards but at this point offer no financing options.
"Peter took 90k from us, lied repeatedly, finished about 1/3 of the project, did not get a permit, and then abandoned the job. He didn’t pay subcontractors and has absconded with our money. Working with this crook has been one of the worst experiences of our lives."
