Our Foundational Story: From Hands-On Beginnings to Portland’s Trusted Remodeling Contractor

About me: My journey in construction started long before I ever owned a business. I grew up in a working-class family in Buffalo, New York, where hard work wasn’t just encouraged, it was expected. As a kid, I spent my summers helping my dad with concrete work and other projects with his friends. Those early days on job sites taught me the value of showing up early, doing things the right way, and taking pride in the work you leave behind.

Over the years, that early exposure turned into a lifelong passion. I continued building my skills across multiple trades, including carpentry, plumbing, electrical coordination, and finish work, gaining a deep understanding of how homes are built from the ground up. That hands-on experience eventually led me to start my own company and bring my approach to construction to homeowners here in Portland.

Guided by Values: Hard Work, Honesty, and Respect in Every Project

What drives me today isn’t just building projects, it’s building trust and creating spaces that improve people’s lives. I genuinely enjoy working with homeowners, helping them solve problems, and turning ideas into something real and lasting.

When I’m not working, I try to spend as much time outside as possible. I love hiking and exploring the outdoors, especially here in the Pacific Northwest. I also enjoy the occasional movie or night out with my wife. Most of all, I love being a dad. Spending time with my son and sharing experiences with him is one of the most meaningful parts of my life.

Dedicated Project Management: Your Remodeling Journey, Step by Step

At Becker Custom PDX, we understand that embarking on a renovation or building project can be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve developed a streamlined process designed to guide you every step of the way, ensuring clear communication and exceptional results.

Our Specialized Process: From Consultation to Completion

Here is how we work with you:

Step 1: Initial Consultation – We begin with an in-depth consultation to discuss your vision, needs, and goals. This includes understanding your budget and timeline. By actively listening to your ideas, we ensure that we are aligned from the start, setting the foundation for a successful project.

Step 2: Site Assessment – Next, we conduct a thorough site assessment to evaluate the space for your project. This allows us to identify any challenges and opportunities, ensuring that we can tailor our approach to meet your specific requirements.

Step 3: Design Phase – Once we have a clear understanding of your needs, we collaborate with you to develop design concepts. This includes creating detailed drawings and 3D renderings that visualize the proposed project, ensuring it aligns with your vision.

Step 4: Detailed Proposal and Budget – After finalizing the design, we provide a comprehensive proposal that outlines the project scope, timeline, and a transparent breakdown of costs. This ensures you have a clear understanding of the budget before moving forward.

Step 5: Contract Agreement – Upon your approval of the proposal, we will review and sign a contract that details the terms and conditions of the project. This step offers clarity and protection for both parties, ensuring everyone is on the same page.

Step 6: Planning and Permitting – Our team handles all necessary planning and permitting processes, ensuring compliance with local regulations and obtaining the required approvals before construction begins. This minimizes delays and keeps the project on track.

Step 7: Construction Phase – With permits in hand, we commence the construction process. Throughout this phase, we maintain open lines of communication, providing regular updates and progress reports to keep you informed and engaged.

Step 8: Quality Control Inspections – We implement quality control measures throughout construction, conducting regular inspections to ensure that the work meets our high standards and adheres to the agreed-upon plans. This commitment to quality ensures your project is completed to your satisfaction.

Step 9: Completion – Upon project completion, we conduct a final walkthrough with you to ensure satisfaction with the results. We also offer maintenance support and encourage feedback to continuously improve our services, ensuring you feel supported even after the project is finished.
