About Us

Who is the Remodelers Council?

The Remodelers Council is a national award winning council comprised of Home Builders Association members who are affiliated or work in the remodeling industry. Approximately 200 members work together with a goal of being the one source for both homeowners and industry professionals. Council members are offered a variety of ongoing education opportunities to keep them up to date on the latest technology, products and environmental issues. Business management issues are also frequently addressed, which improves customer service.

The Council has established Oregon's original Tour of Remodeled Homes™ (2000) and helps to produce Remodel Portland, the annual magazine devoted to the professional remodeling industry and the Tour. Council members also actively participate in both the spring and fall Portland Home & Garden Show™ and the annual Surplus Sale.

As a group, the Remodelers Council is generous with its time and financial support of local charities through collaboration on the Tour and involvement with ReBuilding Together (formerly Christmas in April) program. Council members have given hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to support local organizations. Ladies of the Remodelers Council annually participate in the Susan G. Komen "Race for the Cure" to benefit breast cancer research. The Council also developed a scholarship program for local young people entering a career in the building industry.

The Council has been recognized on the national level for its energy, commitment to the industry and professional attitude toward the consumer. The Council Award for Demonstrating Remodeling Excellence (CADRE) is the highest national award a local council can receive. The Portland Remodelers Council has won fourteen of these prestigious awards in the past eight years. Click here to learn more about the awards. 

Why Hire a Professional Remodelers Council Member?

With a continuing increase in home remodeling projects and a large population of remodelers available, one of the most overwhelming tasks facing the homeowner is selecting the right remodeler.

The Remodelers Council was designed to raise the level of professionalism in the home remodeling industry. Council members are committed to promoting professional remodeling in the Portland area. Consumer confidence is strengthened because all Council members are experienced professionals, dedicated to on-going training, education and a commitment to ethical conduct.
