(They also replaced all our windows, siding and more). After the process began we quickly determined that there was no way a sink could be placed in the island without compromising workspace. Willowridge worked with us to figure out how to put the sink at the island's end as an apron/pedestal sink and create an extra cabinet! The Project lead designed a beautiful connector between the bar and island top. Everyone who worked with us was organized, respectful of our home, on time and listened carefully to what we wanted. Im especially grateful for their outstanding workmanship. We would certainly be happy to work with Willowridge again. **★★★★★ — Dustin Davis, April 2020** > Josh and his team have been extremely professional and organized in their approach to building custom Alaskan homes. Excellent service, attention to detail, with a high quality end deliverable whether it is a brand new home or a remodel. Integrated Communication Designs, Inc. is proud to work with Willowridge on their custom projects. **★★★★★ — CLARE BERTUCIO, April 2020** > We were very happy with the crew and the work which was done! Very professional, high quality, dependable. The workspaces were kept exceptionally clean, our interaction with all involved in the project was professional, pleasant, and timely. We did a major remodel and repair following the earthquake of late 2018. Due to the scope of the project it spanned several months. The team worked with us to make sure that our needs were met, and that we were able to work around this massive project in phases. The team made sure to coordinate all phases and to coordinate with all subs and deliveries. They were wonderful!! Also, very creative ideas and solutions as needed! We would definitely use Willow Ridge again. **★★★★★ — Reno Romero, May 2019** > We hired Willowridge for our home addition and we could not be happier. Josh and his crews were wonderful to work with and exhibited great integrity.. Their work was of the highest quality and their design was exceptional. The skill and craftsmanship put forth on our home was unmatched. We are so very grateful! **★★★★★ — Aaron and Anastasia Brown, Nov. 2018** > WillowRidge Construction has our full endorsement as a superior custom home builder. After our first meeting with Josh Sundstrom we knew immediately his firm was the one to build our dream home. It was clear that he is passionate about his work. Josh was intimately involved in every aspect of planning and design. Before the project even started, Josh made several trips to the acreage we intended to purchase providing guidance on the placement of the house on the lot, ensuring there were no issues that would limit us with the build. He even had his excavator come out to dig several holes to verify the soils were good. > > Josh worked closely with our architect from the very beginning, which we believe was key in achieving our beautiful, classic and timeless home. Josh is an expert craftsman. He is honest, forthright and accessible. He and his crew are true craftsman and their work is of the highest quality. We heard from others that Willowridge hires excellent sub-contractors. We could not agree more. At every stage of the project, we knew the best and most skilled people were working on our home. That makes a huge difference. We are so happy we chose WillowRidge Construction. We recommend them with the highest marks! **★★★★★ — Amy Frankenburg, Aug. 2018** > Josh Sundstrom and his team added an addition to our house in 2011. We had a local architect design the addition and WillowRidge build it. Josh was very involved with the project and always had time for questions from me. He was also very responsive to issues in the design which arose which required changes as we were building. He worked through design issues with us to come to a good resolution. The finish work was well done. project was close to on time and slightly above estimate. I appreciate the collaborative relationship we had with Josh and WillowRidge. I have no hesitation to (and have) recommended WillowRidge to friends. **★★★★★ — Eric and Bobbi P, June 2018** > We purchased a home with a large 1400 SF unfinished timber frame room with minimal electric, no plumbing, and no fireplace. After ruminating on what we wanted the space to include, Josh S. and Tim listened, designed, suggested, and reworked any areas on paper we needed. With Josh B. as on-site, the WillowRidge team of perfectionists delivered an absolute stunning spare bedroom, glamorous bathroom, paneled billiards room, bar and great room with extensive fully custom cabinetry. The room is tied together with a stunning floor to ceiling fireplace on one end and a matching stone accent wall with rustic framed window at the other end. Layers of lighting with beautiful fixtures, wide plank wood floors, and travertine tile areas complete the space. Ask, and WillowRidge can deliver! (Now the rest of the house seems like we need to take it up a notch!) **★★★★★ — Peter Lunoe, May 2018** > My wife and I built a custom home with Willowridge construction in 2013. We entered the project with some degree of trepidation given the common horror stories one hears when dealing with general contractors. However our experience with Josh and Tim was much to our delight a pleasurable one. They are knowledgeable and hardworking who pride themselves in the projects they undertake. The proposed and actual budget and timeline were met within 10% of predicted which is something that alot of home builders cannot say at the end of their projects. Above all, both Tim and Josh are extremely trustworthy individuals a quality that is absolutely essential when it comes to having a functional relationship between builder and client. I have and will continue to highly recommend Willowridge to friends and family interested in new home builds and significant remodeling projects. **★★★★★ — leslauwers, May 2018** > WillowRidge built a front and back deck using trex composite decking with cedar trim. Our decks are beautiful and they were amazing with every detail. They found a few concerns about our house foundation after removing our old decking and replaced and repaired our structure. They designed our decks to flow from the front to the back beautifully and rounded the front to match our landscaping. They also came on time or early each day and left the property clean and organized each night. They started our job on the day they said and finished early. Thank you so much WillowRidge and hope to use you this summer for some inside remodel!!! **★★★★★ — William Merriman Architects, LLC, Nov. 2017** > We have worked closely with WillowRidge Construction in the past several years on projects both large and small. The level of care, craft and attention to detail exhibited by Josh Sundstrom and his team is always outstanding. As architects we look for a builder who is excited about our designs, and takes joy in exceeding ours and client expectations. WillowRidge is the builder we trust for thoughtful collaboration, beautiful execution and with the resources to get the job done. **★★★★★ — Donna Knutson, Nov. 2017** > My husband and I hired WillowRidge to build a timber framed home for us. Josh, the owner, and all the supervisors, carpenters and laborers that we worked with were professional, more than competent, and truly nice people. We honestly enjoyed working with them, and are very pleased with the result. I would hire them again without hesitation. **★★★★★ — Rachel Sophocles, Oct. 2017** > Willowridge Construction Company is by far the most professional, skilled, and trustworthy builder in Alaska. My wife and I had a great experience working with them. If you need help with a small project or creating your dream job they are the one's you want to work with. ## Selected projects - [Switchback House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/switchback-house-pj-vj~6422928) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - [Girdwood Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/girdwood-residence-pj-vj~6189853) - Location: Anchorage, AK - Photos: 13 - [Girdwood Chalet](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/girdwood-chalet-pj-vj~6189880) - Location: Anchorage, AK - Photos: 12 - [Potter Valley Contemporary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/potter-valley-contemporary-pj-vj~2383936) - Location: Anchorage, AK - Photos: 14 - [Cormorant Cove](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cormorant-cove-pj-vj~536914) - Location: Anchorage, AK - Photos: 17 - Description: The Cormorant Cove Project was an extensive remodel of a fairly typical two story home into a craftsman style retreat. The remodel involved a complete gutting of the main and upper floors, a three story addition along the back of the house, new kitchen and master configurations, and all new finishes. A significant amount of built-ins, posts, and beams were incorporated into the design in order to achieve the timeless craftsman look the homeowners were after.

This is Kahrs Oak Oyster. **Q: What are the two counter tops made of, and what colors are they?** *(in Photo Questions)* I am looking for the manufacturer and color name of the countertops used in your Potter Valley Contemporary house. A: Hi Jessie, Both of the kitchen countertops are Pental Quartz. The darker counters on the perimeter are PQ Grigio and the island is PQ Thassos. Thanks for stopping by our WillowRidge site on Houzz! There are a few more images of this home on our full site here. Have a great day, Tim **Q: pendant lights above kitchen island** *(in Photo Questions)* hi...can you tell me the brand and name of the pendants? thank you. A: Hi Donna, Those are Glass Jar Pendants from West Elm, in varying sizes. Hope that helps! **Q: Front exterior help** *(in Design Dilemma)* I'm having trouble deciding what to do with the front of our house. Not a fan of the beige trim and garage doors or green shutters but can't figure out what colors would look good. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks! A: This house has some great potential! I would suggest enhancing the garage gable by adding a timber frame awning with curved knee braces and metal roof over the garage doors. I think this would create a bit of carriage house feel, and add a focal point to an otherwise empty, but prominent space. I'm not sure what your budget is but carriage style garage doors would really complete the look! Here is a great example photo: The timber element could also be carried into the front entry area to replace the ironwork. **Q: What stain is on these cherry cabinets? Absolutely perfect.** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The cabinets are a DeWils Cherry and the stain is Honey Wheat. **Q: Architect?** *(in Photo Questions)* Wow...awesome detail and workmanship. You guys just keep out doing yourself. Who was the architect? A: This project was a complete design and build by WillowRidge with some creative requests from the homeowners. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-09.*
