Testimonials

“If you are looking for a general contractor to build a custom home, RB Olson Construction should be your choice. The focus is on delivering quality and value. Bob and Lori will keep you involved at every step of the project, and your input and objectives are always considered. Bob’s knowledge is a great asset when making decisions on different options along the way. His teams of subcontractors are competent, friendly and responsive so work is done on time and to specifications. In the rare instance when a problem arises, Bob’s response is rapid and thorough. We received the keys to our house on time and on budget. Overall, working with RB Olson was an excellent decision and we are delighted with our house.”

“R.B. Olson Construction built a beautiful custom home for me in Pullman in 2017. I engaged them very early, so I had the benefit of some site feasibility conversations and plan modifications, as well. From start to finish, every step of the process was proactively and thoughtfully explained to me. The RBO team always made themselves available to answer my questions and provide input and insight on schedule, process, and design, and proactively sought my guidance on matters of style. Our contract was clearly written and proposals were accurate, so there were no surprises at the end of the project. I always felt like my job was a priority. At the end of the day, my home is a dream come true and, if I did it all over again, I wouldn’t consider anyone else for the job.”

“We built a home with Bob and Lori and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the conceptual phase to the one-year warranty items the service was top-notch. We chose them due to the quality and beauty of other homes that they had built in the area.

Bob went out of his way to help us find a lot that would work for the house plan that we had chosen. We met with city planners and visited a couple of different lots together. Due to his vision we bought a lot that presented some challenges common to Pullman (slope, large 30′ easement, small, etc.) but was also very affordable and had a great view. In order to make the house fit on the lot we needed a variance from the City of Pullman, and Bob was present at the board of adjustment meeting to help plead our case.

Without hesitation I would recommend RBO Construction to anyone who desires to have a pleasant experience building a beautiful, quality home.”
