Our renovation project with River Ridge came with several complexities that Matthew navigated efficiently and effectively. He was mindful of both our budget and timeline as he found solutions to various challenges within the scope of our project. Matthew worked well with the pool and landscaping contractors who were working simultaneously at our home. He is a strong communicator who listened to what we wanted, asked lots of questions, and offered suggestions and recommendations that did not add significant cost but increased customization to better fit our family's needs. I wholeheartedly recommend River Ridge Construction and would use them again myself for future projects.

When looking for a contractor, I urge you to contact Matthew! He was the second contractor I interviewed and was honest, informative, and helpful. Communication is invaluable when doing a complete renovation, and Matthew is the best! He is always available and communicates all aspects of the job, good or bad. His subs show up on time and clean up afterward. We lived in our home through the construction and the subs were incredibly respectful of our personal space. Matthew is a problem solver and does whatever it takes to make his clients happy. I would not hesitate to use him again! Thanks, Matthew and team!

We recently completed the renovation of our master bath and closet using River Ridge Construction and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results! Mathew and his crew were very professional and did excellent work. He connected us to a designer who helped create the floor plan for our master bath and the conversion of an office into a large walk-in closet. Matthew did a great job estimating both project costs and work timeline…..and in fact, he finished ahead of schedule! If you are considering a home improvement project I would definitely recommend River Ridge Construction!

Matthew with River Ridge created a way for us to have double the size of our shower including a bench, a separate toilet room, custom built-ins, and a large double vanity with us only giving up 18” of bedroom space. It was a brilliant and creative way to completely update our bathroom with 5-star amenities without even noticing any loss of space. And re-tiling our other shower with the same level of workmanship and attention to detail. Kudos to you and your team for staying on schedule and providing outstanding communication throughout the project. Would highly recommend River Ridge!

Matthew is knowledgeable and makes sound recommendations based on his experience. They listened to our plans and ideas, made suggestions, and carried out the remodel of our master bathroom and bedroom professionally. They ensured the work was done well and kept the space as clean as possible during a significant renovation. Matthew responded quickly to any questions we had and resolved all of our concerns. The level of communication was well above what we have experienced in the past when working with other contractors. We are very pleased with the work River Ridge did for us, and the manner in which it was completed. We highly recommend this company.

Matthew was great to work with. I did not have a specific time frame to get the project done but once the schedule was presented to us, they worked to that time frame. The subcontractors worked long hours and didn't waste time. The quality of work was great. They were very easy to work with. River Ridge is definitely a contractor I would consider.

Matthew was hired as our general contractor for our third remodeling project in 20 years. We have lived through three major remodels in two different homes. In this remodel, we added a new garage, bonus room, master bedroom, and master bath for our 1972 ranch. Out of our three remodeling projects, Matthew has been our favorite contractor.
While a major remodel is inherently stressful for almost any homeowner, ours was complicated because we continued to live in the house during the renovation, and we started this journey at the height of the COVID pandemic. Matthew and his sub-contractor team were professional, reliable, courteous, and respectful of our home, our privacy, and our health and safety concerns during the pandemic. Matthew and his team became members of our family during those five months. He was considerate of our need to work from home during the pandemic, and he was courteous of when we or the home would be unavailable. He was very clear on the construction timelines to complete our project, and he delivered on them. He was very clear on our budget, worked within the constraints of our financing, and finished on budget.
Matthew’s quality of work was consistently top-notch. His skilled sub-contractors were knowledgeable, confident, and competent in their respective trades. He was also sensitive to work site appearance and our relations with our neighbors. His good work habits, strong safety rules, and emphasis of having the job done correctly, yet still efficiently, were important. His teams’ pride in their work was evident. They made sure there was a clean and tidy worksite every day. We found them to be trustworthy, and we felt comfortable allowing them access to our home.
Matthew has an “old school” work ethic. He was punctual with appointments with us as working homeowners, and would personally check on the project regularly throughout the day. No remodel is without setbacks. When we had problems or difficult decisions, he would help us work through them, and often, his suggestions were the saving grace.
His ability to be creative yet remain within our budget was remarkable. He would bring our ideas to reality and not break the bank, from creating uniformity throughout the house to turning a cool antique room divider into a sliding barn door for the pantry.
We are very pleased with the final product that Matthew delivered and was genuinely impressed with his role as general contractor. Matthew is a man of integrity, and it is rare to find someone like him in the construction industry today. We cannot make a higher recommendation to make your dream home come true.

From the moment we met with Matthew to share our goals for the remodel, he was responsive, professional, direct, and realistic about the project. He guided us to valuable resources from the drawings to the cabinet hardware and everything in between.
He gave us the freedom to make smart decisions about where to spend our money based on what we wanted and not what the market wanted allowed us to stay within our budget AND remain satisfied with the outcome.
His attention to detail in all phases of the project was evident. He noticed punch items we did not have the skill to see and ensured the details and workmanship were "right".
He honored his word and kept the project moving; pushing his crew to completion and giving us access when we needed a safe place to care for my Mom.
Additionally, he has been prompt in his responses over the last 9 months (post-project) and promptly addressed anything that needed attention no matter how big or small.
His approach is unique in this business; responsive, reliable, professional, and personable. We have recommended him to friends, family, and coworkers and will continue to sing his praises.
There are few days that go by that we don't say out loud how much we love our home. Thank you again for bringing our little dream to life.

Matthew and his guys were great to work with! They renovated/expanded the master bathroom and closet while also making some upgrades and repairs to other rooms in the house. The final product turned out better than I hoped. We have recommended River Ridge to all of our friends. Feel free to message me if you have any questions about them.

My experience with Matthew was nothing but positive. His crews were professional, timely, and hard-working. I highly recommend him because I now have the most beautiful bathroom in Williamson County.
