# Lamont Bros. Design & Construction > Lamont Bros. Design & Construction is an award-winning design-build home remodeling company serving the Portland, Oregon metro area since 2008. Founded by brothers David and Joseph Patrick, the company operates as a single-team design-build firm — meaning one accountable team manages design, budgeting, permitting, and construction on every project. Lamont Bros. has completed 850+ remodeling projects across the Portland metro and holds a 4.9-star rating across Google, Houzz, and Yelp. Awards include the NARI Remodeler of the Year and Houzz Best Service every year since 2016. ## What We Do Lamont Bros. Design & Construction specializes in full-service residential remodeling for homeowners in the Portland metro area. Services span kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, whole home remodels, home additions, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), basement remodeling, and insurance restorations. Every project is handled under one roof from initial design through final construction. The design-build model means homeowners work with one team throughout the entire project — no handoffs between a separate architect and general contractor. This improves communication, reduces change orders, and keeps projects on time and on budget. ## Services - **Kitchen Remodeling** — Custom kitchen renovations including layout changes, cabinetry, countertops, islands, appliances, and full gut remodels. Portland kitchen remodel costs typically range from $75,000 to $150,000+. - **Bathroom Remodeling** — Primary bathrooms, guest bathrooms, and full bathroom additions.
