Since 1998
Marin County's most trusted name in luxury home remodeling, built on a foundation of craftsmanship, integrity, and an unwavering dedication to our clients.
Our Story
North Bay Remodeling was founded in 1998 by master carpenter Michael Harrington, who started the company with little more than a truck full of tools, a deep respect for the craft, and a handshake promise to every client: your home will be treated as if it were our own. What began as a small carpentry shop in San Rafael quickly earned a reputation for meticulous workmanship and genuine care that set us apart from the start.
Over more than 25 years, we have grown from that humble beginning into Marin County's premier luxury remodeling firm. Our evolution has been driven not by chasing growth for its own sake, but by an unwavering commitment to quality that organically attracted new clients through word of mouth and referrals. Today, we are proud to have completed over 500 projects -- from historically sensitive Victorian restorations in Mill Valley to sweeping contemporary kitchen transformations in Tiburon.
What has never changed is our family-owned ethos. Every project is personally overseen by our leadership team, and we invest heavily in our people -- many of our team members have been with us for over a decade. We believe that stable, experienced crews produce superior results, and that belief is reflected in every detail we deliver.
Our philosophy is simple: remodeling your home should be an exciting, transparent, and rewarding experience. We pair old-world craftsmanship with modern project management practices, keeping you informed and in control from the very first design consultation through the final walkthrough. This is the North Bay difference -- and it is why our clients return to us again and again.
