They completed three projects for us over the last 2 years, the largest being a major remodel on a 1950's ranch house down to the studs. In addition to extreme detail, they provided excellent communication, including when working through pandemic and supply-chain related challenges. Most of all, they had our back, even if that meant more time and effort on their part. One of the best words to describe the entire process is: trust. We'll always be grateful to EverLife for transforming our old tired home into a rustic masterpiece that is in all ways even more beautiful than what we hoped for. Thank you EverLife! **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Laura, thank you for such kind feedback. The opportunity to work with you on all of these projects was amazing. We are thankful also for the freedom you gave us to do our best work. We are grateful you gave us the trust you did to serve you. **★★★★★ — Kirstin Moreno, Feb. 2022** > Keith, Andrew, Eric, and Jacqueline were great to work with on our recent bathroom remodel in Hillsboro. It took a bit longer than initially expected (supply chain issues like everyone is having lately), but they were good at communicating with us via email, phone, text, and in-person, keeping us updated about progress. They worked well with our designer, were respectful of our space, and were super trustworthy. I most appreciated that they listened really well to what we said we wanted, and that they followed up to fix any lingering concerns we had, even months after the project had wrapped up. Everlife also demonstrated a high commitment to quality and making sure things were done the right way. They seem to have a good relationship with their contractors and the entire remodel process was pretty smooth. We LOVE our fully remodeled bathroom and new bedroom lighting and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Everlife to others. **★★★★★ — Bobbi Snider, Jan. 2021** > Our remodeling experience with EverLife Homes was exceptional. From the planning stages to completion of the project, we were pleasantly surprised. Keith Knowles company and workers consistently exceeded our expectations.. We lived on site during the remodel and all the workers were courteous and extremely professional. They arrived on time and were always willing to answer any questions we might have. No question was ever overlooked and there was always a willingness to spend extra time if necessary. We actually miss our contact with the workers, they became out extended family. The final project turned out beautiful and was completed in the time frame quoted to us. We absolutely love our new living space and would highly recommend EverLife Homes, **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Thank you Bobbi and Galen! What a great project and you are both wonderful to work with. Enjoy the new space! **★★★★★ — Richard and Donna Ruthardt, Dec. 2020** > Our aging in place remodel turned out beautifully. It's exactly what we wanted, and the EverLife Home crew was always easy to work with, are good listeners and do amazing work. **★★★★★ — peggy silva, Dec. 2020** > We met Keith Knowlton of EverLife Home when searching for a contractor to renovate a cottage in Portland, Oregon, that we would use to visit our daughter's family and as an Air B&B. We would be at home in NH while the work was being done, so we had to trust each other on plans and performance. Keith and his firm are exemplary in their communication, work ethic, and skills. Due to Covid, we were unable to see Keith's work for 10 months, but were overwhelmed when we opened our new front door. His work was perfect, and I would hire him 10x over! **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Thank you Peggy and John! It is an honor to serve you and I'm glad to hear that you love the results! **★★★★★ — James Thomas, Sept. 2020** > I would classify EverLife as an excellent general contractor performing quality work. They demolished an existing 12 ft. x 35 ft elevated deck and backyard patio and walkway rebuilding a new composite deck that was rainproof creating a dry patio space below and pouring a decorative concrete slab and walkway. Workers were considerate and coordinated work with our schedules and were a pleasure to be around. Cleanup was generally good and communication was prompt. Project duration was considerably longer than originally anticipated, but ultimately resulted in a quality project. **★★★★★ — David Raffauf, March 2020** > I had a wall with a large hole due to damage from a hot water pipe leak. EverLife was able to ensure the area was fully dried, and repaired the wall including new insulation, sheetrock, salvaged trim, and matched the existing texture. You'd never know the wall had been damaged. > > They always showed up on time and took many steps to make sure they didn't damage the adjacent walls and flooring. The final price was the estimated price and it was all done in a timely manner. **★★★★★ — Jason DeVille, Jan. 2020** > Excellent customer service - Keith and Andrew were great, friendly, polite, competent and kept us informed. The subs they used were also respectful of our home and family. > > We couldn’t be happier with the work and the way we were treated by Everlife. We would give a full recommendation! **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Thank you for the wonderful review Jason and Heather! You are exceptional clients to work with. **★★★★★ — Kent Wilcox, Dec. 2019** > Keith Knowles and his crew did a great job on my project: new front door, new garage door and updated outdoor light fixtures. The style and colors of our doors exactly match our home. Definitely enhanced the curb appeal! **★★★★★ — Holly Kelsay, Oct. 2019** > We can't recommend EverLife Homes highly enough. We hired Keith and team to renovate a farmhouse that had been in the family for years and we are extremely happy that we did. The craftsmanship and attention to detail was exceptional. The commitment to making sure we were happy with the status of the project and the end result was fantastic (even with all the changes we made along the way). While I was very impressed with the quality of the work, I was equally impressed with the quality of the people. Keith and Andrew were on site almost every day for 8 months. They are professional, courteous and a pleasure to be around. The contractors that they brought in were also top notch. This is a huge deal when people are coming and going in your home everyday. They also offered creative solutions to achieve the results we were looking for. We still have more work to do when time/budget allow, and we will absolutely be working with EverLife again on the next phase of the renovation. **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Thanks for the great review Holly! This has been a wonderful project to work with you on and I look forward to more! **★★★★★ — Chambers Interior Design, Oct. 2019** > I highly recommend Keith Knowels for your project! > > Keith and his team are not only honest and reliable, but are incredible creative and talented too. I have referred Keith many times and always feel confident my clients will be taken care of and happy with their finished project. **Comment from EverLife Home:** > Thanks for the great review Rene! You are a wonderful designer and we have fun with the projects we get to work on together:-) **★★★★★ — SUNBRIDGE SOLAR LLC, June 2019** > Keith is a wealth of knowledge, ability, and positive attitude. I've worked with him in several different capacities over the years and it's always been a pleasure. He communicates clearly and honestly. We're currently working on a potential project together and I can't say anything but good things. ## Selected projects - [Beaverton Whole Home Remodel: Aging In Place + Custom Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/beaverton-whole-home-remodel-aging-in-place-custom-remodel-pj-vj~6645820) - Location: Beaverton, OR - Photos: 89 - Description: Whole home remodel to arrange a multi-generational family living situation.
