We invite you to read their words and get a feel for what it’s like to collaborate with our team from start to finish.
“I wanted to take a moment and provide you with some feedback about our recent home remodel project. Short and Simple…We LOVED it, and we LOVED working with you and the OV team! The caliber of the OV team is exemplary and the relationship that OV has with its subs, made the whole process FUN! At every turn, I felt like OV truly cared about the outcome of our project and whenever we had a question or concern, it was immediately addressed. This points to the high caliber of project management oversight that you provided, as well as the coaching and team building.
Last, and certainly not least, the detailed planning and design aspects that OV so strongly supports clearly pays off in the end. We have a highly functional, and exceptionally beautiful remodel and I couldn’t be happier. I would recommend the OV team and process to anyone who asks. We’re already missing the team!!“

“Coming for the trade perspective, working with Kevin and Paul is always a great experience. They orchestrate their projects with a clear understanding of construction, advocacy for the client and respect for all trades involved. You can feel it when you step on the job site and see it in the final results. Excellent, through and through.“

“Paul and Kevin have always been a great resource throughout the design process and continuously demonstrate excellent communication with both the clients and the design team. They are incredibly organized and take the time to be thoughtful in their execution which is so important in the field of interior design. “

“As an architect trying to design healthy, high-performance homes, I feel fortunate to have found a way to work with Opus Vitae. It’s been invaluable to have a builder who is equally enthused about the “nerdy” side of construction and building science, and I love how they are willing and eager to collaborate early in the process, to make sure we get the details right the first time. They speak our language!
We’ve worked together on three projects over the past year, and I quickly grew to appreciate OV’s prompt, clear, and caring communication with my team, but I also see it come through with clients and other designers. In my view, this is an ethos that is not only held by Kevin and Paul, but extends all the way through to their staff, project managers, craftspeople, and even subcontractors.
I’m looking forward to more collaborations together in the future!“

“Kevin and Paul's dedication to their craft, trade partners and clients becomes a beautiful journey as artistry manifests 'Concerto Grosso'“
Eric
Trade Partner
“Integrity, attention to detail, dedication to quality, honesty, full and prompt communication, and transparency: these characteristics are what stand out when we think back on our eight-to-ten months of working with Kevin and Paul. They put in a significant amount of work, months before a single worker started dust control and demolition, to understand our objectives and priorities, to help develop the details of the design plan and to build a detailed and realistic job schedule. Those efforts and strategy paid huge dividends for us. Once the demolition started, the job progressed smoothly: they dealt with the inevitable surprises (minimized because of their excellent preparatory work) deftly and efficiently. The finished product came in within budget and, more importantly, exceeded our expectations.“

“Short story -- these guys are the best. Longer story -- we've worked with a lot of contractors over our decades in business, Kevin and Paul rise to the top. They communicate clearly, honestly and kindly with everyone. With their planning, guidance and leadership the work turns out solid and beautiful. And, working with them is a pleasure.“

“Over the course of several years, we've been fortunate to work with Kevin Rosa and Paul Coppock on nearly a dozen remodeling projects across the Portland Metro area. Throughout the pre-construction planning and onsite phases, they provide clear communication and work seamlessly with their sub-contractors and homeowners. It’s a pleasure working with Kevin and Paul, and we wholeheartedly recommend them and their team at Opus Vitae Construction!“

“Saying that Opus Vitae has been a joy to work with would be an understatement. Paul and Kevin have a dedication to their craft that is unmatched. Their communication, quality of work, and results are a direct showcase of their level of investment in their projects and clients. In addition to the outstanding quality of their work, they are also a genuine pleasure to work with.
I wholeheartedly recommend them and their team!“

“As a design professional with over 25 years of experience, I know the value of the right team. When I get the opportunity to work in tandem with Opus Vitae I know we are embarking on a great project. I know that the clients will be in the care of thoughtful professionals because Opus Vitae aligns themselves with the best trades in the industry. We at Lord Design know that we will be supported every step of the way and that the end product will reflect that. This team is amazing and we count ourselves as very, very lucky to be on their list of go-to designers. They are most certainly on our very, very short list of go-to builders/contractors.“

“I've had the pleasure of working closely with Kevin and Paul on numerous projects as a subcontractor. The level of detail they bring to the table, accuracy of scheduling and quality of completed projects puts them at the top of their field. Don't waste your time looking elsewhere if you want the best outcome possible while working with two fun and tremendously skilled team players!“

“Working with Paul and Kevin was easily the best working relationship I’ve ever experienced. Their excellent communication skills ensured that we were well informed during the entire process. Kevin did an excellent job helping us determine where we could save money and also where it made sense to go the more expensive route. Two years later, I have no regrets about the places we saved money and also I’m very happy with the decisions we made to spend a little bit more money to make sure our project ended up looking and functioning exactly how I wanted it. I appreciated their thoughtful and kind relationships with all of their coworkers, subcontractors and craftspeople and the collaborative efforts they practiced with our designers. Paul and Kevin handled all the surprises, big and small, with grace, humor and extreme competence. The excellent relationships they maintain with their subcontractors are evidenced in the care and professionalism they exhibited when working on our project. Everyone seems to take great pride in their work and it shows in the final product. As I’ve said before, I only wish I had another house to remodel with the two of them!“
