Three Generations of Carpenters. One Seattle Company.
Jensen Contracting is family-owned, locally rooted, and built on the principle that quality craftsmanship never goes out of style.
Quality Craftsmanship
Rick Jensen, owner & third-generation carpenter.
Rick picked up his first hammer at age 8. His grandfather taught him. His father taught him. By the time Rick founded Jensen Contracting in 1983, he'd already absorbed a lifetime of lessons about what separates good work from great work. That standard has anchored every project carrying our name for more than four decades.
Today, Rick personally mentors every craftsman we bring on. He walks major jobs. He answers the phone when you call. And he's still on site for the projects that matter most to our clients — because when a family trusts us with their home, it deserves the attention of the person whose name is on the sign.

What We Don't Compromise On
Quality First
Premium materials, modern methods, proven skills. Every project gets meticulous attention — from a single drywall patch to a whole-home renovation.
Honest Relationships
Clear communication, accurate bids, respect for your home and your time. We build with honesty, accountability, and respect in every service.
Experience That Shows
Licensed craftsmen, consistent workmanship, and a single point of contact who's been doing this since before most of our competitors existed.
Proud supporter of Beds for Kids
We believe a family business should give back to the place that built it. Jensen Contracting is a proud supporter of Beds for Kids, a local Seattle charity that provides furniture and bedroom essentials to families transitioning out of poverty.
For every major remodel we complete, we contribute to Beds for Kids — helping make sure more Seattle kids have a bed, a dresser, and a room to call their own. Small gesture, real impact. If you want to learn more or donate directly, we'd love to point you in their direction.
