## About

### Houzz Badges

- 25,000 Ideabook Saves

Since 1959, Riggs Construction and Design has developed a tradition of outstanding service and client satisfaction. We are a full service design/remodeling firm that begins with your first inquiry and continues until the end of your project and beyond. We are committed to the highest quality of design and craftsmanship in our work, be it a bath remodel or a whole house renovation with multiple additions. Our experience and teamwork has brought clients back to us time and time again.

In 1959, Bill and Helen Riggs set out to create a construction company that would provide the best carpentry services with the finest craftsmen in St. Louis. That dream became Riggs Construction Company, a firm that began with a focus on home remodeling and expanded into carpentry subcontracting to the homebuilding industry and commercial general contractors.

Bill and Helen’s son, Tom, and their daughter Pam grew up in the business. In 1981 when they were ready to hand over the reins of the company, they knew Riggs Construction would be in good hands with Tom managing day-to-day operations and Pam leading office management and accounting. Tom bought the business in 1985 and transformed the company into Riggs Construction & Design, a full service, design-build firm.

Today, Tom’s children Amie Riggs and her brother Bill are the third generation of the family to lead the business after purchasing the company in 2011. They remain committed to living out their grandfather’s vision and embrace the values he held dear – values that allowed him to establish a reputation for uncompromising excellence, and a reputation that remains today.

**★★★★★ — jennifergion, March 2016**

> Very professional with great customer service!  Always on time and does great work.  Highly recommend.  Aimee provides great insight into the design process and is very helpful with shipping and planning.

**Comment from Riggs Construction & Design:**

> Jennifer, thank you for your sweet comment! It was a pleasure working with you :)

**★★★★★ — eakinder, March 2016**

> Riggs has done my bathroom, kitchen, siding, front porch, front door, sidewalk and driveway.  Each job was done to perfection.  They worked with me and kept me informed of the progress.  Each job was completed exactly as they said would be.  If issues arose, they handled them competently and quickly.
>
> They even were so kind when my beloved pet passed away during the kitchen renovation.  Not many companies would have noticed or acknowledged it.

**Comment from Riggs Construction & Design:**

> Thank you so much for your sweet review! We loved working with you, and this was a really fun project for us. We appreciate you and hope to work with you again in the future! -Amie Riggs

**★★★★★ — Phyllis Ravensberg, July 2014**

> For professional, quality service, for jobs large or small, there is no better residential contractor in the Saint Louis area.  From the beginning of the design phase through the punch list, the Riggs personnel are easy to work with and very reliable.  All aspects of a project are kept to strict standards.  And the end project is satisfying to both the client and the builder.

## Community Q&A

**Q: what is the flooring and color in this photo?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Job finished oak hardwood. Custom color to match existing aged wood throughout the home.

**Q: who is the Hood Mfg?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Exactly what we are looking for.. We love the island light fixture too!

A: Dear RJLINDE,
Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately we lost all the records of this job durning a hard drive crash. The Owner of this home has since moved out of state.  I did contact her but she could not recall the manufacturer. She purchased her own appliances and could not even reemember where she purchased from.  There is a very similar model made by BEST K313936SS.  Check it out here http://www.bestrangehoods.com/store/products/productdetail.aspx?id=5a983af1-91ec-4c4b-9700-09d9bb2a5dbb
