Powell Construction

Extraordinarily great team! Design to finish. Genuine care & attention to details. Exceptional service. We cannot be more pleased with our remodeling project. Even subcontractors were excellent & delivered careful quality workmanship. Quality work through and through. Awesome people who love dogs too!

When my brother recommended Powell Construction to my husband and me when we were researching a bathroom remodel, we had NO IDEA that it would be far from a common, run of the mill experience. From the time that we had a conversation about the project with Tom Powell and Dean Flaming we experienced respect, kindness, professionalism, collaboration, and excellence. We began to wonder if we would be able to afford such quality. Deborah Flaming, the designer, listened carefully to our ideas and worked tirelessly to be sure that we were fully "on the same page". She worked hard to keep it within our budget, too. Joe Shuttlesworth, our lead carpenter, was talented, organized and a true craftsman, never leaving a mess at the end of the day. The finished project far exceeded our expectations! Powell's took care of many small, but important, details making sure we understood each step of the project. We had the project's time schedule posted on our refrigerator. It was followed with precision. Without question, we would want Powell Construction's expertise for our projects in the future!

I am a property manager in Corvallis, OR and had just taken over a new rental property that was in great need of renovation for it’s large main bathroom. It is a fraternity style living situation so the bathroom layout was designed for large numbers of people to use but was a few decades old and didn’t afford much privacy. I contacted Powell; I had not worked with them before but when they came in for their initial walkthrough they were extremely knowledgeable and professional and quite obviously experienced. They were able to see the difficulties that were probably going to arise and devise possible solutions even in just their initial walkthrough. We signed on with them in November 2018 and they began immediately on the design process and scheduling the construction to begin June 2019 and ending September. Powell’s designers Jayde and Christine created a number of designs for us to pick from and walked us through the smaller design choices. The six month preparation process before construction began was handled thoughtfully and professionally and the design result met everything I was wanting for the project. When construction started Mat, our lead carpenter, handled everything from the demolition, to working with the plumbers, painters and tile guys and electrician. I never had a sense that he didn’t have a handle on what was going on or what needed to happen. He was very positive and communicative through the whole 12 week renovation. We had a plumbing problem crop up at the end of the renovation after they had finished (not unexpected on a project this large) but I called up Powell and they came and fixed the issue without hesitation or complaint at no cost to us. I highly recommend Powell. When you have a project that needs experience, skill, and good deal of orchestration I would say Powell meets these needs and takes responsibility for their work. I will be contacting Powell again when I have another major renovation.

We had an excellent experience with Powell Construction for our kitchen and living room remodel. Powell did a good job with the design, and the lead carpenter, Joe S., did a fantastic job with managing and implementing every other part of the project. Communication with Powell was good, the project finished on time and we are thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Powell, and Joe S., and would not hesitate to book them for another job.

Powell Construction exceeded our expectations all the way, from beginning to end. We came to Powell for a full bathroom, sunroom, and office nook. The designer did an amazing job taking our ideas and needs and translated into beautiful spaces we all love and enjoy. The lead carpenter managed the whole project with excellent planning, great communication skills, and with professionalism. There was a strong wind/rain storm one night when we had a temporary roof, and the lead carpenter came to our house at 9pm to make sure the temporary roof was holding (in pouring rain!!). We highly recommend Powell Construction.

We are repeat customers of Powell Construction. Our first experience was a well-orchestrated installation of six skylights, so Powell Construction was our first choice for a major kitchen remodel plus installation of wood floors throughout our home. From start to finish excellent customer service never wavered. Our designer listened to our thoughts and ideas and incorporated them beautifully into the project. All the sub-contractors were top notch. Skilled in their areas, neat, and courteous. We absolutely love our new kitchen and wood floors and would not hesitate to use Powell Construction again in the future.

Our experience with Powell Construction was superb from beginning to end. We came to Powell with a kitchen remodel project. We appreciated the way to their designer guided us through the hundreds of detail choices to be made. She did this in a way that helped us make the choices that were right for us without ever imposing her own style on us. Once the decisions were made and the project was completely defined, the result was a fixed-price contract (with allowances, where necessary). Another result was a schedule with a firm start date and a firm end date. The construction commenced on the schedule date, and the project was completed on the scheduled date. Who knew that contractors could even do that? The lead carpenter on our project was wonderful to work with. The communication was exceptional throughout, with both scheduled weekly meetings and passing conversations when things came up. He made it a point to leave the work area clean at the end of each day, and especially on Fridays. As is inevitable with this sort of project, there were a few glitches along the way. But Powell was able to get things worked out and still complete the project on schedule. The quality of the final product was excellent. We love our new kitchen!

My kitchen is a pleasure to work in because of Powell Construction's fine renovation. They worked with me tweaking the design and choosing materials until I was totally happy. Work was started and finished on schedule. In fact their scheduling was one of the best parts because I always knew when and what was going on. Their subcontractors were well chosen for their skills and also for their professionalism on site. I would choose Powell's for any future work. Photos of the kitchen remodel can be found on Powell's website, "Fresh Maple kitchen remodel".

We love our new family room and 2nd story deck. The lead carpenter and his assistant were wonderful (competent, hardworking, friendly, considerate). The design staff were imaginative and displayed great patience with us. And despite a few hiccups (which I’m sure happen with every remodel) the project stayed on schedule. Powell’s did a great job in every way.

Powell really knows how to pull all the experts together to produce an excellent result. We have used their services on four separate occasions to update and make our house just right. Every time we were completely satisfied. I highly recommend them!

We had a great experience working with Powell Construction! We could not be happier with the end product. They were patient and professional as we worked through our vision for the project (a new window with a bench seat and surrounding built-in cabinets). The owners and designer provided lots of good ideas and suggestions while ultimately working to design something that fits our home, lifestyle and preferences. We definitely recommend Powell Construction and will hire them again for our next remodel project.

Working with Powell Construction was truly a pleasure! We were impressed with the organization, reliability and professionalism of this company; and are delighted with our new addition (a.k.a. 'the East Wing') .
