European Craftsmanship

Highly recommend! We were referred to Reuben for renovations of our owners bath and were so very pleased with the timeliness and quality of his work. Prompt, reasonably priced , and a good communicator!

Fantastic effort! Very communicative, and balanced our desire to balance price with quality of product. We were faced with a daunting list of repairs that we needed for our recently purchased home, including water intrusion behind both siding and cultured stone on the front and sides of our house, water leaking through a deck into our garage, rot repair, water envelope replacement, and installation of a new sliding door. In addition, we needed to remodel our laundry room in order to make it functional. All the work that was performed was performed with the utmost of care and professionalism. I've never been this pleased with services performed with a contractor, especially in this environment when tradesmen / tradeswomen are so flooded with work. Definitely exceeded our expectations!

It went well. There were bigger problems below the surface that they indicated might exist before they started. So the project was much more extensive and expensive than we hoped. The project turned out well. They were responsive and easy to work with.

Overall the repair went well. They did a good job at a reasonable price.

Initially we were nervous working with them since they didn't have many reviews but were about 30% less then every other contractor we had out. They ended up being amazing though. We had to move into our house in 2 months, and they scheduled and did a full LP to hardiplank conversion with painting in only a few weeks. They were always available to talk about progress, worked probably 12 ours a day, 6 days a week for 2 weeks, and were able to help us with other issues, like some dry rot they found, fence repairs, and door installations for reasonable costs. During the move-in process, we dealt with about 12 contractor for various projects and they were by far the best. In fact I felt bad at the end they were charging us so little for such a big project. On top of everything, they were very friendly and we had some nice talks about their coming from Europe to Oregon. I wish them the best in their future endeavors.

Outstanding

As I mentioned above, they were on time and complete and very responsive from the first phone call to the last.

Europen Craftsmanship, Reuben, was one of several contractors recommended by our Realtor when we retired to Portland from D.C. I actually went to Reuben's house to check the flooring he had installed for himself, and it was exactly what we wanted. His pricing was excellent (cheaper than refinishing the existing badly damaged floors in the house), and we hired him do the floors and interior paint just prior to our move. Our new neighbors told us he and his family crew worked almost round the clock to get the project complete before we arrived. All was ready for the moving truck, and in beautiful shape. The former owners also hired Reuben to do the minor repair work we required for the transaction. From the beginning, it was apparent the house needed some serious attention, and so we began. Reuben thoroughly knows his business; knows when to bring in appropriately licensed subs (he has all appropriate licenses and insurance himself); and does terrific work. When we've had an emergency in the dead of night, he's come over and dealt with it. When it's safe, he even lets our cats "help" him with the work! I estimate that we will still need a new roof, siding and two more bathroom remodels before we're done, and there undoubtedly will be more, along with maintenance issues. We're just delighted that Reuben continues to be our contractor and occasional feline entertainment. He is absolutely the best and most honest construction guy I've ever dealt with.

They are timely, fairly priced and thorough.
