We were in constant communication and he kept me updated every step of the way. And the results were fantastic. Long review/full story: We worked together with an engineering company to draw up plans to remove a 30 ft load bearing wall. From start to finish, it was a roughly 4 month process (because of COVID) and Josh worked tirelessly from the planning process to a finished project. He does his own work and takes pride in the work that he does. He was very upfront and honest about any issues we were going to face during construction, and we worked together to find amenable solutions. Oftentimes, there are hiccups, delays, and unforeseen problems when dealing with construction and it's the contractor's job to communicate what's going on to the client and Josh is superb in this aspect. Over the 3 week construction process, we were in constant contact and tackled the problems together. Josh runs a top-notch company and his work is impeccable. There are little details in his work that tell you he really cares about what he does. You won't regret coming to Pacific Craft Construction with your project.

What a pleasure to work with Pacific Craft Construction! The remodel turned out AWESOME! From start…read moreto finish they were great communicators about the project. I cannot stress enough how refreshing this was in dealing with a contractor. They would let me know when they were planning on being at the house, what their goals were and updates on progress and any unexpected snags. The team at Pacific Craft has a keen eye on the big picture and small details of the remodel. When something came up that would delay one section of the house they had the forethought to pivot and work on another aspect of the house. They produced amazing results on the project. They have pride in their work and genuinely care about the customer and the finished project. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.

Finer Cabinetry. Finer than the rest as one might infer from the name. That would be a good…read moreconclusion based on our experience of having Finer Cabinetry create two pieces of custom furniture for us. The outcome was truly top notch and every step in the process professionally managed. At this point in our lives we've gutted and remodeled one house and had two built from scratch, with custom cabinetry and custom casegoods furniture included. Sadly, it wasn't until a couple of months ago that we discovered Finer and this time for a furniture project. We wish we had known of them earlier because they would have been our first choice for cabinets. We've seen Finer's cabinet work in homes in our community and it is absolutely impeccable in craftsmanship. The company is run by two men named Steve, one of them runs the front office and does the customer outreach and the other runs their custom cabinet shop and helps create the fabulous case goods. Both are a delight to work with and each brings with them nearly forty years in custom cabinet work with the fine craftsman outlook that experience supports. Their passion for getting things right is evident and delightful. Finer Cabinetry will not be the least expensive of options you'll find, but you'll find no finer (pun intended) for the quality of outcome. You get what you pay for and then some. And when the original estimate for our furniture came in over our budget, they were happy to work with us to simplify some of the design elements that added to the cost so we could end up with designs that allowed us to stay in budget and also have the feel we wanted for the furniture. The outcome was stellar quality craftsmanship, the best we have ever had done compared to three other custom cabinet makers and three other custom furniture makers. The next time we build or remodel a home with a need for cabinets or have custom furniture on our radar, Finer Cabinets will be our first stop. It does not get better than this for a company run by folks with integrity and skill, to create true fine craftsman work. THIS N THAT: The exterior of their location is unassuming in a small building in an industrial area on Bend's east side. But go in the customer offices and you'll be able to see some of Finer's beautiful cabinet and woodworking handiwork. You'll be hooked! And if you love wood shops as my hubby and I do, see if you can peek inside their big shop. Well organized, lots of top notch specialty equipment, and the best staff folks doing the work.

We haven't used Steve yet, but plan to in the near future. My husband is very picky and in general…read moredoesn't like people. However, from the little time he spoke to Steve my husband was convinced his cabinet shop is the best. We got an estimate and as the other reviewer said, Steve was great in working with our budget and coming up with different quotes for different options. He came to our house twice and this was last year when we first bought our house. We ended up not deciding to spend the funds for a new kitchen at the time, but now we need to and when we re-contacted Steve he was nice as ever. No grudge for not using him the first time. His quality of work can be seen in the office and its impressive. You should stop by as I would highly recommend him. Oh, and we also had Home Depot do a quote and they were the same price and not honest about their installation fees which they add on even though they make it seem like it's included in the price. The Home Depot cabinets were also the cheapest model, and nowhere near as nice. In this case it makes us happy to know that we can support local business and get the best quality. Update: Our kitchen is done and the team was great to work with. Probably the best in Bend. I would highly recommend them. You may see their work in the photos I posted. These people are reliable and deserve 5 stars. Once you work with the average Bend contractor who doesn't show up or takes 10 times as long as they could or does a half ass crappy job you will really appreciate this company.

Kristov even hung new outdoor light fixtures for us as part of the process. Our house looks brand new again and we couldn't be happier!

My husband and I really enjoyed working with James, owner of Smitty Construction. James helped us complete three renovation projects: our kitchen, a full bath and a powder room. From the beginning timeline to the final walk-through (and follow-up visits) James was a pleasure to work with. He transparently communicated pricing and change orders, extended his professional discounts, and was just plain nice to have around the house for almost two months. All of his subcontractors were a pleasure to have around and spoke very highly of James. One even mentioned how he's one of the few contractors in Bend they will work with because of his honesty and follow-through. If you want a contractor you can trust, James is definitely the guy for you. We can't recommend him highly enough!

I signed…read moreup with PGC to do a small project to replace a window with a sliding door, being VERY clear with them that my priority was getting it in quickly, and that I would have other projects that would follow. They said there was a 3 week lead time on the door and they would fit my project in between larger projects after that. 2 weeks later, I got a followup indicating that they hadn't ordered the door with a lousy excuse about the "door guy" being on vacation. I asked for a commitment on timing on the installation to proceed, and they said 1st week of September. I said fine, waited a week, didn't hear anything, asked for a followup, and they responded with another slip in the schedule, changing the install time to 2 weeks - 7X as long as the 2 days I was quoted. I responded, copying Ed on my e-mail to let him know that I was totally unsatisfied with the level of communication and commitment to the expectations they had set with me. That was two weeks ago, and I haven't heard back from either Ed or Elizabeth who is the project coordinator to follow up on ANY aspect of the project.

If you are planning on doing an addition, do yourself a favor and hire Erik Foster and his crew…read more  My wife and I are the type to tackle our own projects, but when we decided to add 800 square feet to our existing 1,300 square foot home we knew we needed professionals.  After many unfortunate events with another subcontractor, Erik Foster crossed our project's path and was a breath of fresh air. To meet someone in the trade that knew what they were doing, took pride in their work, and communicated up front any issues or decisions that had to be made was what we were looking for.  Erik and his crew took over our stalled addition; they fixed the existing floor framing, laid the sub-floor, raised the walls and trusses, sided the addition, sheeted the roof, and dry walled the interior.  They also installed all the new windows, hung the exterior doors, and installed the faux batten boards for the entire house exterior with meticulous detail. Erik took over a broken project and made it right for my family and that in itself says it all.  His crew hustled on the job site even when nobody was looking and showed up to work on time with a smile on their faces and looked you in the eye when communicating.  With an addition there is always surprises and Erik was upfront with what to expect and more importantly dealt with the unexpected professionally.  There was a lot of our project that my wife and I ended up doing ourselves, some planned and some not, but Erik was a great resource in pointing us in the right direction when we had questions.  Erik and his crew are a refreshing reminder of how people are supposed to be; hard working, take pride in their work, do what they say, and respect their customers as people just like them.
