Projects

At Five Quarter Construction, every project, whether a bathroom renovation or a custom rammed earth home, receives the same attention to detail and commitment to quality craftsmanship.
Here's a look at the range of work we take on and the expertise we bring to each build.

Rammed earth


This 8-month rammed earth build involved specialized construction methods. The 2-foot thick walls required careful formwork and close collaboration with the structural engineer to achieve code compliance and the energy efficiency the homeowners wanted.

Key features:

  • Super-insulated walls with an R-Value of 41

  • Custom pigmented rammed earth layers creating unique patterns

  • Structural engineering coordination for load-bearing earth walls

  • Airtight construction for optimal energy performance

Testimonials

I worked alongside Five Quarter Construction for 8 months while building my rammed earth house and I would recommend Walker without hesitation. He’s an honest contractor, does excellent work and takes pride in it. He was consistent in his effort and communication for the duration of a long, taxing project and does what he says he will. He’s extremely reliable, punctual, and pays attention to detail. I’m very pleased with the outcome of the work and look forward to working with him again!

Residential Framing


As the framing contractor on this custom home build, we handled the structural phase that creates the “bones” of a house. When we arrived on site the foundation was both out of square and level. We took the time to work with what was there and with a few tricks of the trade built a plumb, level and square house.

Key features:

  • Moving and lifting heavy structural beams

  • Coordination with mechanical and electrical rough-in phases

  • Quality lumber selection and precise cutting to minimize waste

  • On-schedule delivery of structural framework

From the builder

Working as part of a larger construction team, we delivered the structural framework on schedule while maintaining the exacting standards that custom home construction demands. This project demonstrates our ability to execute complex framing plans and work seamlessly within the broader construction process.

This comprehensive project combined foundation work, framing, roofing, and custom fencing. The scope required careful site planning and coordination of multiple construction phases.

Key features:

  • Concrete foundation and slab work for long-term stability

  • Traditional stick-frame construction with quality materials

  • Custom roofing installation matched to existing home

  • Property-wide fencing installation with attention to grade transitions

Full Bathroom Remodel


This tricky bathroom remodel required lowering the floor two feet in order to gain the headroom in a short basement. We rebuilt with modern fixtures, custom cabinets, and quality finishes.

Key features:

  • Dugout floor two feet and reinforced the existing foundation

  • Custom tile work including floor, shower surround, and accent features

  • Built-in shelving designed to maximize space efficiently

  • Plumbing and electrical coordination for modern fixture installation

Walker is an ace! I threw him all sorts of curveballs on some smaller projects that required innovation and some fine skills. Flying colors there… So I contracted with Five Quarter Construction to do a very challenging basement bathroom and more. We couldn’t be happier!
