What Our Clients Think
"Rich and his team at Ridgewood deliver experience, integrity and excellence from project vision to completion. Our 110+ year old somewhat challenging farmhouse was transformed into a timeless dream home with perfection and care for the smallest detail. Rich goes above and beyond to deliver the best in craftsmanship and in our case working with and around several other contractors with constant communication with us on every phase of the project. We are very pleased with the result and the pictures speak for themselves. We highly recommend this talented team to do your next home project! Thanks Rich, Alyssa, Travis, Brent, Adam, Charlie and the amazing trades that make up your A+ team!"

What Our Clients Think
"We met with a lot of contractors when we decided to do a home renovation. Our friends recommended Ridgewood Construction and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. They were not only professional, but respectful of our time and space. Every member of the team that we met with, paid close attention to detail and answered every question we had. If there was an issue, they made sure it was fixed. I don’t write google reviews, but I was so impressed I felt that this was very necessary. I am happy to say that when we need a project done in the future, this will be the only team that we use."

What Our Clients Think
"The entire team from Ridgewood was excellent to work with and we would highly recommend them. Rich is honest, knowledgeable, and runs a smooth operation. Alissa has great ideas and advice and her design plan for our kitchen and bath remodel was perfect. Mike and Travis are great carpenters, kept us in the loop and addressed any concerns along the way. We are very happy with the whole process, especially the end result, and wouldn’t hesitate to use or recommend their services again."
