Pine Ridge was the General Contractor on our house renovation, including a complete kitchen and…read morebathroom remodeling. Christian has an impeccable sense for design that eliminated the need for a kitchen designer or architect, and we love the outcome. He really took the time to understand what we wanted out of our living space and designed a kitchen that accomplished what we wanted. Everyone at Pine Ridge was easy to work with, responsive and communicative, and friendly and accommodating at every turn. Estimates for timing of work were realistic and they successfully pushed to complete the job by the deadline they had promised us, despite the fact that we had added additional work in the interim. Costs were estimated accurately and transparently documented for us on a weekly basis, so there were no surprises, and subcontracts were cost-effective and well supervised. We had heard a lot of nightmares about having to chase contractors around, but experienced nothing of the sort. Working with Pine Ridge was an excellent experience from start to finish.

I highly recommend him for landscaping, pond digging , wall building and other sorts of needs that you may have for your home and property.
