Richard's Custom Construction

Our experience with RCC has been fantastic - Richard and his crew definitely exceeded all expectations! The work involved demolishing our existing house and re-building a 2,500 s.f. custom home ground up. Richard guided us during the planning and permitting process, and then managed the entire construction process as the general contractor. We are very satisfied with the quality of work, professionalism, and timeliness from RCC crew and their subcontractors. I would highly recommend RCC for any residential construction project. We could not be happier with our new house!

Went well. Work was first rate and service was great.

Richards crew removed and replaced an old crusty dilapidated sunroom/greenhouse room that was connected to our family room. I can't stress how bad it was. They added new walls, windows, insulation, flooring, electrical, lighting and paint. They also reconfigured the laundry and furnace/water heater space into two separate rooms. The process was what you always picture before you hire someone (and things go downhill). There were zero problems. Eric and Mike worked 7-330 M-F and were awesome and professional. We love our room so much. It has changed the entire look and feel of our home. From start to finish they went above and beyond to provide a quality product.

We love our new basement!

RCC was initially hired to do a bathroom remodel, however we wound up doing a total house remodel. Richard is very knowledgeable about every aspect of the remodel process. He is very detail oriented and on top of all the projects we had going on. He was always on sight to monitor work and progress. I would highly recommend RCC for any type of home project.

It went very well. Richard is professional, punctual and very easy to communicate with. He was always here at stated times and always let us know when he would be back. Great attention to detail and wonderful workmanship. It's always a bit stressful having someone work on your home, but I felt very comfortable and confident with Richard. I am very impressed with his skills and would definitely use him again.

Richard was great to work with. Had him bid our job to completely remodel our kitchen/living room and some other various things - new flooring, new trim, new doors and removing walls/false ceiling. Whenever we had questions about finishes/work involved, he always had a clear answer for us. He was great at guiding us toward solutions for some issues that were acceptable and much cheaper in the long run. He had a great list of vendors for products, and was always cognizant of cost vs. quality. Glad we had him on our side when an issue came up with our custom kitchen cabinets (which he took care of). He also holds his sub contractors to his same high standards. In the end, his bid was nearly exactly what the work cost too! Definitely looking forward to working with him again when we're ready for our next project.

We LOVE our new kitchen. It's exactly how we wanted it to be. RCC was awesome!

Richard and his crew have been extremely professional. They are the most accommodating as we are elder and prefer to remain in our home during construction. His communication is second to none, we are informed of any issues and the remedies necessary. We were never in the dark wondering if our timeline was on track or if our budget was running over.

Richard was in charge of the entire project during its duration. We live 285 miles across state and travelled at least once a month to visit the house to review its progress. He created a timeline for the project in the beginning and scheduled us to meet with subcontractors to talk out what we wanted to have remodeled in the house and what would work with our budget. A month or more into the project we decided to demolish the master and guest bathrooms based on Richard's assessment that it would cost less to rebuild rather than work around existing older plumbing and tile.  We were very happy with our decision to do this and can't explain what a difference this made to our home!

Richard informed us in advance when we needed to choose plumbing and electrical fixtures, window coverings, doors, millwork, paint colors, etc. in order to work with subcontractor's schedules to keep the project on it's timeline. He would always schedule vendor appointments for us based on our travels to the house and would make available during our visit samples of certain products to help us with our decisions. There were a few instances when we couldn't decide on flooring or millwork and he made the decisions for us, based on what we had already chosen for doors, cabinetry, and interior paint colors, of which we are very pleased with.

He always maintained a safe and clean worksite. He worked well with our neighbors to ensure the project did not interfere with their daily lives (i.e. noise, trucks blocking our 1 lane private road).

Richard presented his invoices every other week with supporting receipts attached in order to make reconciling the invoice easy. There were no hidden costs.

We chose Richard after interviewing 2 other larger home remodeling companies because he was upfront, honest and would be taking on the project solely by himself. He didn't have a tiered system where there were many managers working on the project and each one of them would sub-out the various jobs to be performed. He is hands on and cares about every aspect of the job and ensures that the job is performed professionally and with perfection. Even though our home's interior was fully demolished, he made sure that the home was secure when leaving the project each day and that all equipment and product was safe and secure when he was not there.

We would recommend Richard for any remodeling project - large or small!

Absolutely fantastic. He took care of everything. We are thrilled. He was professional. He was on top of things and things were done in a timely manner. He did a fantastic job and presented himself professional. We are all around happy. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to have something done in their home.

Overall, I am very satisfied with hiring Richard's Custom Construction for this job. He had the best bid for the job out of all the other contractors I met with, and most importantly he is very professional. He pays great attention to detail and listens very well to any requests you may have concerning the job. I would highly recommend residents of South King County to contact Richard if looking for an experienced and fair priced contractor in the area.
