R&H Construction

What R&H Construction does

R&H Construction is a privately held commercial general contractor founded in 1979 and headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a secondary office in Bend serving Central Oregon. The company provides full-service commercial construction — ground-up, tenant improvement, and renovation/remodel — across a broad set of market sectors including multifamily and mixed-use, senior living, hospitality and resort, healthcare, retail, restaurants, wineries and breweries, automotive dealerships, affordable housing, education, industrial, and civic/community projects. Notable delivered work includes the Splash mixed-use building (310,000 s.f., 219 units), The Springs Living Happy Valley senior community (one of the first FitWel-certified senior living projects in the U.S.), Toyota of Corvallis (first Net Zero ready car dealership globally, LEED Platinum), the Caldera Springs Forest House at Sunriver Resort, and the historic Jim Fisher Volvo renovation.

The business operates a project-based, bid-and-build revenue model: each engagement is custom-priced based on scope and specifications, with revenue recognized through general contracting and construction management services, including preconstruction, site selection assistance, concept planning, and competitive bidding. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, targeting commercial developers, property owners, and institutional clients in Oregon and the broader Pacific Northwest; repeat clients and referral pipelines are central. Underlying execution technology includes BIM/Revit for MEP coordination and clash detection, PlanGrid for QA/QC documentation, and Matterport 360° imaging for complex-space capture, with specialty systems such as Nyle Reverse Cycle Chiller water heating deployed on energy-efficient multifamily builds. R&H employs roughly 210-230 team members across its two offices and is led by President & CEO Kraig O'Connor following the April 2023 retirement of 42-year veteran John Ward.
