What our Clients are Saying
“We live in an historic district and Elizabeth did a great job preparing a design which complements our house. She facilitated a smooth historic preservation permit approval. Building a carpentry shop raises a number of non-standard construction issues. Carl patiently answered our many questions. His knowledge of energy efficiency practices was very helpful. Ron, who runs the cabinet shop, provided invaluable insights regarding layout, power needs, etc. Ben and the entire G. Christianson Construction crew were reliable, on time, and hardworking. It was a pleasure to work with Carl, Elizabeth, Ben and the rest of the team. The end result is a beautiful and functional shop – a dream come true. ”

If all houses throughout the entire United States did that, it is possible to slow down carbon emissions to the point that we can slow down global warming and eventually, hopefully, reverse it.”

See the Craftsman Custom Passive House project“G. Christianson Construction has completed two remodel projects in my home, both with stellar results. They were very good at solving problems, explaining options, costs, and potential solutions, and I always felt comfortable asking questions. I always knew when and what was going to be happening, and everyone on the crew was easy to work with (and have around!). I highly recommend them because of the high quality of work, they are easy to work with, responsive to concerns, and always available for any follow-up.”
