Portland General Contractor

Vision to reality.

H&C Design-Build LLC is a Portland general contractor focused on residential renovation. We are veteran-owned and minority-owned, and we run projects with clear scope, solid craftsmanship, and direct communication.

We specialize in whole-home remodels, with strong kitchen and bathroom work that balances function, material quality, and architectural character.

Core scopes include concrete foundations and flatwork, retaining walls, kitchen and bathroom remodels, custom decking and fencing, and tile work. Our in-house interior designer and project systems keep planning, permits, and construction aligned.

As a licensed, bonded, and insured Oregon contractor (OR CCB #251405), we stand behind our work and keep you in the loop at every step.

Serving Portland and the surrounding metro area, we offer straightforward guidance and no-pressure consultations so you know what to expect before any work starts.
