About us

Our reputation is built on our customers' experiences with our quality workmanship, customer friendly policies, commitment to YOUR project, and our unique ability to follow through. We know your project is an important event in your life and we work with you to exceed your expectations, every step of the way. The Rittenhouse Builders Story When Dean Rittenhouse and I founded this company in 1995, we wanted to provide our customers quality craftsmanship and excellent customer service. In the early years we worked for high-end custom contractors where we refined our craft. During this experience we learned the importance of starting the job correctly, staying focused on the details, and immediately dealing with those items which were not “right”. We saw contractors with the best standards and work practices exasperate their clients by not listening to their clients’ wishes. We saw contractors promote flash over substance. We also saw up close that the best communication skills and best construction practices don’t guarantee happy clients if the systems and processes of the company do not deliver value. As our company grew, we added key employees Ryan Rittenhouse and Gary Mohler, two highly skilled individuals who are still with us today. We worked in some of the finest homes on the Main Line alongside other contractors. And as we gradually took on more of our own projects, we adopted the best practices we had observed and wove them into the fabric of Rittenhouse Builders. When Rittenhouse Builders began, we were committed to three overriding values: treating our employees and our customers with respect, providing the highest quality materials and craftsmanship, and always being honest with our customers. This commitment is still alive today and as our reputation grows, we believe that this commitment is the cornerstone of what makes Rittenhouse Builders special. Rittenhouse Builders continues to work hard to do our absolute best and nothing less. With these values and a strong work ethic, Rittenhouse Builders has been serving the region for over 10 years. I invite you to build on our reputation. Sincerely, George Metzler. Rittenhouse Builders makes it easy for you to get your home remodeling projects started and we provide all the necessary services to handle all aspects of your project. This means we can be your architect, general contractor, or even repair person for those little projects that come up from time to time. Rittenhouse Builders can handle it all.

Without question, working with Rittenhouse has been the smoothest, easiest most pleasant experience I have had with contractors in over 40 years of home ownership. Every aspect from the contracting to the execution was handled professionally, promptly and fairly. When questions arose, George was out quickly to respond and when issues of quality of workmanship came up, George usually found them and had them corrected before we had a chance to request it. The price was fair compared to other bids we received, but the quality of service has been unmatched.

We had a major leak in the soil pipe from the third floor to the basement. We hired a local plumber to replace the pipe on an emergency basis, but called Rittenhouse to do the long term plaster work, millwork and painting. It was March and April of a very bad, snowy winter, but they managed to complete the work as promised. The work was very complicated in a 100 year-old house, but they had the necessary expertise. While they were here we thought of other work that needed to be done. They were willing to do all of these small jobs that many such professional builders avoid. We called Rittenhouse to do the major repairs because they've done other work for us over the past 5-10 years. It was comforting to give them a key to the house, go to work every day and know they will get the work done, even in a complex job such as this that involved many weeks of coming and going.
