Vertical Construction Group

What Vertical Construction Group does

Vertical Construction Group is a Seattle-based, veteran-owned design-build remodeling contractor founded in 2009 by Stephen Creer. The firm delivers an integrated suite of residential and light-commercial construction services including whole-home renovations, home additions and expansions, interior renovations (kitchens, bathrooms, basements), exterior improvements (decks, fences, pergolas), and commercial tenant improvements for boutique retail, restaurant, brewery, and cannabis grow-room clients across the Pacific Northwest. Its operating model combines architectural design and construction execution under a single team using a three-phase pre-construction workflow (Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documents) with progressively detailed ROM and formal estimates, supported by as-built scanning, photo-realistic architectural renderings, and a CRM-based client project portal.

The business is a privately held Washington State LLC with no external funding, no subsidiaries, and no parent entity. Headcount is in the 1-10 range with execution supported by hand-selected professional subcontractors rather than a large in-house labor base. Pricing is quote-based and project-driven, with typical project budgets ranging from $10,000 to $300,000+ across tiered small, mid-range, large, major, and premium segments. Marketing is organic and reputation-led: a content-driven website (vcgteam.com), Google Reviews pipeline, an active Instagram channel showing real-time project updates, and educational blog content targeting top-of-funnel homeowner interest. The firm carries a 2-year Builders Workmanship Warranty (double industry standard) and holds BBB accreditation, a 2024 Best Contractor recognition, a 2015 NKBA Puget Sound 1st Place Design Award, and Lead-Safe Certified Firm status. Vertical Construction Group is a member of NKBA, the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties, the Northwest EcoBuilding Guild, the Timber Framers Guild, and Breakthrough Academy, reinforcing its local professional network position.
