LOCAL | RELIABLE | DETAIL-FOCUSED
Built With Care and Craftsmanship
For Whatcom County’s small projects to full remodels, Contreras Construction brings precision and care for a stress-free process to every job.
PRECISION IN
EVERY DETAIL
We don’t cut corners. We do everything with care because we know it’s not just a project, it’s your home.
LOCALLY OWNED
AND OPERATED
We live and work in Whatcom County. When you hire us, you work directly with the person who stands behind it.
HONEST FROM START
TO FINISH
We hold ourselves to a high standard of ethics and respect. Count on fair pricing and work that’s done right.
WHAT WE DO
Specializing in remodels, tile/stonework and painting, Contreras Construction takes on residential and commercial projects of just about any size with integrity and friendliness. From additions and carpentry to flooring and everyday repairs, we show up when we say we will and keep you in the loop the whole way.
REMODELS
Whether you’re expanding a kitchen, updating a bathroom or transforming a whole house, we plan carefully and build to last.
TILE & STONE
Precision work makes a difference. From floor-to-ceiling shower tiles to custom stone, we take pride in work that looks great and lasts.
PAINTING
A fresh coat changes a room more than people expect. We’ll prep and protect your space, and leave clean edges with a finish you’ll appreciate.
OUR SERVICES
-
Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, additions. We handle everything from demo through finish work so you aren't juggling a different crew every week.
-
Showers, backsplashes, fireplace surrounds, and entryways. We take care of the waterproofing and layout underneath so the finished surface holds up.
-
Whole interiors, single rooms, siding, trim, and cabinet refinishing. We prep and protect your space thoroughly and work with precision.
-
Baseboards, crown molding, built-ins, wainscoting, and custom shelving. The kind of detail work that makes a room feel finished rather than just done.
-
Hardwood, laminate, vinyl plank, and tile.
-
New installs and replacements, including exterior doors and patio sliders. Proper flashing and sealing matter here, so we don't rush that part.
-
Decks, patios and fencing. We build for our PNW climate, which means using materials that handle wet winters.
-
Small stuff counts too. A sticking door, rotted trim, a fixture that leaks. We'll take a look and tell you honestly what it needs.
-
We work with business owners and property managers on commercial interiors, tenant improvements, renovations, and finish work.
-
If you don't see what you're looking for, just ask. We can often help directly or point you toward someone we trust.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
★★★★★
Contreras Construction is my go-to for projects big or small. They are very reliable and communicative, and skilled at interior and exterior jobs for any home. I am quick to recommend them to clients and friends. In the same year at my house, they installed new flooring, made a new cement patio, painted, helped with a kitchen remodel, built a wall, and the list goes on. Rafael and his team are the best!

We’ve been using Rafael for many years for repairs and remodeling of our rentals in Blaine, WA. It’s been great to have someone so capable of doing all levels of construction, and trustworthy since we live out of the area. Best of all, our renters really like him!
