Custom home builders and remodels - Serving Port Ludlow, the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas.

Commitment

Whether a custom home, intricate remodel or renovation, Olympic Ridge has been providing over 25 years of customer satisfaction in the greater Puget Sound area. For homeowners that desire a builder who will go the extra mile to build their dream home, Joe Klinker and Olympic Ridge have demonstrated their success time and again. Olympic Ridge couldn’t have achieved its reputation in the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas without the help of dedicated craftsmen and construction team members. Each party knows what the other expects, so there’s never a question regarding quality and standards. We strive to be thorough in evaluating and clarifying customer needs and expectations. Our aim is to develop realistic plans and expense projections to bring client ideals together with budget resources. We work to maintain open communications with clients and construction team and to continually re-evaluate plans and design to assure optimal satisfaction.

Our commitment has often gone beyond original owners as we have remodeled several of our previously built homes to suit successive residents. We feel the best parts of building are the relationships within our team and with our customers. Every home built by Olympic Ridge is unique because our homes are built for individuals by individuals. There may be many who can build a house but not everyone can build a home and still retain lasting friendships with homeowners and craftsmen long after the project is done. We take great pride in our work, our relationships and our devotion to building the dream home that clients are looking for.  Our customers would be happy to speak with you. More referrals are available upon request to protect the privacy of our home owners.

"...My professional background included 28 years in commercial property management in downtown Seattle. Having worked with architects and engineers on major high-rise developments that included tenant build-outs, my background certainly helped in our decision to hire Joe... My wife's professional background was with a structural engineering firm... We both knew and understood the importance of having a well-designed and engineered project... two engineers from my wife's previous firm visited the job site at different times during construction. Both engineers were very impressed with the engineering and the quality they saw.

After seeing Joe's previous work on custom homes, it became very apparent the quality and detail that Joe incorporated in his homes was second to none. Joe's company, Olympic Ridge, stood out. Every step of the way during the building process was extremely well thought out and carried through on a timely basis. Joe's subcontractors know they had to perform on time and on budget. That is why several of his subs have been with him for many, many years. It definitely shows in the quality of the end product.

We have been told... our home design showed a lot of creativity and was built with quality in mind. Joe has the unique ability of seeing the 'Big Picture' and can visualize what will and will not work. In our case our lot had many challenges, but turned out much better than we had hoped.

...our experience with Joe was extremely positive. He can tackle any challenge and solve it with a no nonsense approach and get the job done no matter what obstacles are in the way. He is an extremely reliable and honest individual. Both my wife and I would highly recommend Joe Klinker."

"This recommendation is based on my interactions with Joe Klinker as his customer and is informed by my experience as a corporate executive in a Fortune 500 company... From my perspective Joe has a strong set of skills and knowledge, which have been the foundation of his successful home construction business...

Knowledge/skills: Although I’m not knowledgeable about the details of home construction, I’ve seen the results in my quality-built home. Also, others I’ve worked with (two different home inspectors, various home service providers, and several friends who are engineers) have shared their opinions regarding the extraordinary quality of my home. Other neighbors who live in homes built by Joe echo these comments regarding his quality work, knowledge and skills. Another skill I’ve noted is Joe’s ability to translate and demystify his knowledge so a layperson/customer like me understands the concepts and issues involved.

Ability to influence and impact across professional and individual boundaries: Joe has had to successfully interface with, influence, get approvals from, get cooperation with and among various individuals and groups including government agencies, customers, and sub-contractors. This aspect of his leadership stands out.

Credibility/Ethics: Joe is a straight-shooter and stands by his word. He does what he says he’s going to do and can be trusted. None of these traits can be taken for granted."
