ABOUT OUR WORK IN KIRKLAND
Kirkland Remodeling Built on Design Intelligence
Kirkland is an unusually design-literate community. Its homeowners visit furniture markets, follow architecture publications, and know exactly which kitchen they want before they've called a contractor. We're built for exactly that client. Emerald City Construction brings design sensibility and construction precision to every Kirkland project, whether you're renovating a Norkirk craftsman, adding space to a Rose Hill colonial, or building a custom home on a Houghton lot with lake views. Our job is to execute your vision at the highest possible level, and to help you refine that vision where our experience can add value.

Why Emerald City Construction
Why Kirkland Homeowners Choose Us
Over 17 years, we've built a reputation in Kirkland and across the Pacific Northwest by doing things the right way, honest pricing, rigorous craftsmanship, and communication that actually works.
Start Your ProjectDesign Partnership, Not Just Execution
Kirkland clients often come with strong ideas. We respect that, and we contribute to it. We help you test assumptions, anticipate consequences, and make decisions you'll still love years later.
Lifestyle-First Planning
Before we discuss materials or budgets, we talk about how you live. The way you entertain, the way your family moves through space, the way natural light matters to you, all of it informs what we build.
Quality That Photographs Well and Lasts
We build homes that look as good in the photos as they do in person, and that look just as good years later. Real quality isn't a finish coat; it's everything underneath.
How We Work
Our Process
Every project follows a deliberate process designed to eliminate surprises and ensure the final result matches your vision.
Learn About Our Process →Initial Consultation
We start by meeting with you to understand two things: the scope of what you want to accomplish in your Kirkland home, and the investment range you're working within. This conversation shapes everything that follows.
Pre-Construction Agreement
Before a single tool is picked up, we finalize design and planning, engineering, permitting, and a detailed construction estimate. You'll sign a clear construction contract that covers materials, schedule, and cost, no surprises.
Construction Phase
We finalize a schedule that works for your household, then get to work. You'll receive regular project updates throughout the build. Our Kirkland job sites are kept clean and organized, and you always have a direct line to your project team.
Final Walkthrough & Warranty
When the work is complete, we walk through every detail of the project together to make sure you're fully satisfied. We'll also walk you through your 2-year workmanship warranty so you know exactly what's covered and how to reach us.
What Kirkland Clients Say

"I hired Emerald City Construction to perform a fairly ambitious remodeling project for my house in Kirkland, kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, stairs, and an exterior addition. They communicated well throughout, flagging potential risks as soon as they found out. ECC was particularly good at listening to my needs and proceeding accordingly. I highly recommend them."

"Emerald City Construction created a beautiful home for our family and we couldn't be happier. They completed an entire gut remodel and a master suite addition for us on schedule. Jonathon is an incredible project manager and always responded to our calls and texts. We needed a lot of city and HOA approvals, and they handled it all."
