Meet the Team

"Justin is holistically engaged in his projects and is truly collaborative in his process with other industry professionals."

He is prudent in wanting to understand details up front to operate with efficiency. It is obvious in Justin’s project approach that he has his customers best interests top of mind. His decisions are made not to save time or money but to achieve the greatest results. I would absolutely recommend Justin to future clients.

"From an architect’s perspective, it has been a pleasure to work with Justin and his team."

Ascent’s dedication to quality and customer care is refreshing to see and their willingness to work as a team with designers and engineers makes the process not only efficient but paramount to the execution of innovative ideas.

Kevin Sietmann

"We always felt like we were being taken care of and our opinion mattered; truly making it collaborative and fulfilling our vision for our remodel."

We felt respected and supported during the build and we would (and do) highly recommend Ascent Contracting, Inc. The quality of the work is superb and the craftsmanship is beautiful. We couldn’t be more pleased with how our home turned out.

Meredith Van Horn & Shane Rourke

"We were impressed with Justin's ability to give honest feedback and simultaneously incorporate our wishes to help us get to the best possible finished project."

Every day our family appreciates the craftsmanship and beautiful work by Ascent to truly create spaces that are usable as well as aesthetically pleasing. Five plus years later, we are still loving our home, the quality of the work is top notch and we love and experience our remodel every day. We made the right decisions, both on the design features and on the team that we chose to carry out our vision.

Angela C.

"We were impressed with Justin and his team right away and especially appreciated the high level of communication we received."

He suggested multiple ways to approach the build and curated the design to get us a finished product we love. Ascent clearly values a transparent, trusting and respectful relationship with clients, as we have received numerous check-in calls and small fixes in the years after our project was completed. I highly recommend Ascent Contracting, Inc. for home remodeling and additions if you want an enjoyable construction process and incredible craftsmanship.

Maren Traeger

"Our kitchen and bath remodel project went exactly as planned, and we always knew when the Ascent team was coming and what they would do that day."

The Ascent team was highly organized and put a lot on paper for us to see with associated costs and they maintained this organization throughout the project. The subcontractors brought in were high-quality people and we felt confident in all the work being done. Ascent, you will be treated like family and no doubt have a good experience from top to bottom.

Ascent Client

"What we liked most about working with Ascent, was their care for getting the job done well and how that reflected in their craftsmanship and carried throughout the project."

During the planning phase of our project, the original layout of our kitchen was changed significantly. Justin and his team designed the kitchen and included things we didn't originally think of, and it worked very well on the drawing board and more importantly, it worked very well when it came to be.

Ascent Client

"The practical experience we had with the whole Ascent team was a true joy, it was wonderful to have the team be a part of our lives for the better part of a year."

They were the kind of people that we liked having in our home. It was a joy to see progress on the home because we knew we would run into the guys and they were a big part of the positive experience. The gift they gave us through their craftsmanship and their attention to detail, we are experiencing and enjoying daily. We would highly recommend Ascent Contracting, Inc.

Nils Erickson

"We were impressed with the incredible responsiveness, clear communication and quality work we received on our project."

When we first met Ascent, Justin Bride walked us through the whole construction process, what it would be like to work with his team, and also the timeline from the permit acquisition to the finished product. The education he gave us prior to the build was very valuable.

There was clearly a lot of care taken with the entire construction process as well as the craftsmanship put into our house. We were grateful for the quick response time with any issues that came up. We will wholeheartedly recommend Ascent to friends and colleagues.
