Cedar Ridge Residence
Lake Oswego, OR
Design-Build General Contractor
Norhaus plans, engineers, and builds custom homes and commercial spaces across the Pacific Northwest — with the documentation, sequencing, and site discipline of a firm that's done this eighteen years running.
About Norhaus
Norhaus Construction was founded in 2008 on a simple premise: most construction problems are actually planning problems. We invest heavily up front — in drawings, in engineering, in a real schedule — so the build itself is comparatively boring. That's by design.
Today we run two to four active crews at a time, all senior-led, supported by an in-house estimating and permitting team that stays engaged from the first site walk through final punch list. Nothing gets handed off to a stranger halfway through.
OR CCB #219847, fully bonded with $5M general liability coverage on every active site.
Structural and civil review happens before we ever break ground, not after a change order.
Every project ships with a milestone schedule and a single point of contact from day one.
Beyond code minimums — we stand behind the work well past handover.
What We Build
From ground-up custom homes to tenant improvements, every service runs through the same estimating, engineering, and field-management process.
Ground-up residential builds designed and engineered around how a family actually lives on the site.
Structural additions, kitchen and primary-suite remodels, and whole-house renovations that respect the original bones.
Office, retail, and restaurant tenant improvements delivered on tight timelines without cutting corners on inspection.
Architecture, engineering, and construction under one contract — one team accountable end to end.
Owner's-rep style oversight for complex sites, multi-phase work, or projects with an outside design team.
In-house structural review and a permitting team that keeps plan check moving instead of stalling it.

How We Build
No two projects are identical, but the sequence that gets you there doesn't change — and neither does your point of contact.
We walk the site, review your program and budget, and give you an honest read on cost and schedule before any design work begins.
Architectural drawings and structural engineering developed in tandem, with pricing checked at each milestone so there are no surprises later.
Our in-house permitting team manages plan check and jurisdictional review while we finalize subcontractor bids and the master schedule.
A dedicated superintendent runs the site daily, with weekly owner updates and photo logs so you always know where things stand.
Final walkthrough, as-built documentation, and a two-year workmanship warranty with a direct line to our service team.
Client Feedback
"Norhaus didn't just build our home — they de-risked the entire process. We got a real schedule in writing and they hit it within two weeks, which our friends tell us is basically unheard of."
"We've run three build-outs with Norhaus now. Their estimating team catches problems on paper that would've cost us weeks in the field. That alone has paid for itself many times over."
"Opening a restaurant on a fixed date is terrifying. Norhaus's superintendent gave us weekly updates down to the inspection, and we opened on the date we signed for — to the day."
