From Our Owner

“I started my first remodeling business in Olympia in 1993 with my tool bags and only Joey, my dog, as my helper. A lot has changed over the years but one thing has not: we always put our clients needs first and always produce a quality product.

As the new millennium approached I sold my interest in my first company and started John Erwin Remodeling.

Over the years I have taken great care to ensure we have the right systems and people in place to provide our clients a high level of customer service with our award winning craftsmanship.”

-John Erwin
