The catalyst to successful project(s) rests primarily with the selected contractors(s). In this particular instance, the District hit the ball out of the park when they secured the services of Kirby Nagelhout Construction. I do not hesitate in saying that Kirby Nagelhout is a professional organization that deserves your strong consideration should you have an opportunity similar to that experienced by the Pendleton School District and community.

“ From day one Kirby Nagelhout Construction and their staff in Pendleton have shown an open and honest approach to business and construction. They have consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty, hosting a ground breaking ceremony at Sherwood Heights,conductiong  a student tour at Washington Elementary School just as framing was beginning and coordinating with a Blue Mountain Community College class to utilize the new elementary school construction in their curriculum to learn estimating and construction productivity. They have built a collaborative and trusting partnership with the Pendleton School District and their skilled staff are committed to quality of work with fiscal concerns for their clients being a priority.”

“Kirby Nagelhout Construction Company has earned a reputation for reliability, integrity and quality. They have won dozens of awards for excellence including the Bend Chamber Business of the Year, Building a Better Central Oregon, The Governors Livability Award and the World of Concrete Excellence Award.”

“I’ve taken part in building three buildings for manufacture and this is the first one, the Nagelhout Building in Redmond, that came in under budget and on time. I’ve never said that before about anybody. I would recommend Kirby Nagelhout Construction to anyone, they have a great management team and project managers. I just can’t say enough about them, it was a superb building experience.”

“Due to our experience and other factors, KNCC continues to score highly on our request for proposals, and was awarded our upcoming 2016 summer improvement projects on a total of five schools throughout the district.

It’s with great pride and enthusiasm, I write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Kirby Nagelhout Construction Company. Furthermore, I would recommend KNCC and their team of hard working professionals for any public or private construction project.”

“I have no reservation in highly recommending this firm for any construction work, large or small. They successfully completed for me some of the most complex projects on time and within budget. They always listened to client concerns and needs and always had viable solutions to problems that invariably come up in each project. KNCC is a full-service company with incredibly high work ethic. They can and will accomplish in a positive manner any task they take on.”

“They were easy to communicate with and they listen. They had good ideas about things that could save us money on the project. They worked with the architect with value engineering and really got our expenses lower, to stay within budget. I would recommend Kirby Nagelhout Construction Company, they are honest and they do what they say they are going to do.”

“ What you can expect from KNCC is a strong professional and ethical adherence to the building process, which includes utilizing quality sub-contractors, providing cost effective changes, timely communication and a project delivered on budget.”

“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your crew for the work on the jail expansion project. From the early stages of consulting during the design phase to coordinating post-construction efforts such as the door hatch issue, and EVERYTHING in between on a more than $11 million project, your team has provided top level service and made sure that every detail of the project was addressed, including the more than million dollars’ worth of improvements and replacement of the electronic security system. We appreciated your flexibility in taking on even the nearby parking lot development projects as part of this jail expansion.

For a complicated project such as this that involved ongoing operations of a detention facility during construction, we felt the process was as smooth as it could possibly be, thanks in large part to your team. Thank you again for being a part of this effort.”

“…KNCC has always been able to complete our projects on time and under budget… having creative solutions to building in our unique weather environment… has resulted in huge savings in construction costs to our company.”

“The Bend Library project is, without a doubt, the most successful CM/GC project TH&A has been involved with, and I believe its success is due largely to your (Kirby Nagelhout) efforts. From the beginning of the project, you and your team all worked diligently to both understand the design intent and monitor project costs. We were particularly impressed with your personal involvement in the cost estimating process and the accuracy of the bids is a testament to your skills . . .. As you know, the design and construction process is complex. The CM/GC delivery approach can make it even more complicated, but your approach truly fostered a genuine partnership between the client, the architect and the builder.”

“This project was completed on time and under budget. This is a considerable accomplishment given the congested nature of the site, the need to work with neighbors to the project, and the requirement that the project create minimal disturbance to the operations of the existing library. And we have received many glowing comments from the community on the appearance of the building; testament to the fine workmanship exhibited in its construction. . . . I would highly recommend Kirby Nagelhout Construction Company for any construction project.”

“We would like to take the opportunity to thank you with regards to the completion of the Fire Department Project. From beginning to completion, the entire project has been a pleasure for us. Your staff was always enjoyable and professional to work with, and were always responsive to our concerns and questions. Having worked with your staff on a weekly, if not daily basis for the last year and a half or so, we could not have asked for a better working relationship.”

Through out the fourteen-month project Kirby Nagelhout employees displayed outstanding cooperation and professionalism with all facets of the Public Safety Branch. In addition, Kirby Nagelhout ensured that the subcontractors were also aware and sensitive to the Tribe’s culture and heritage.
