Our Story

Four decades ago,
we chose Central Oregon, too.

Who We Are

Genuine relationships.
Exceptional homes.

LT Northwest Builders started with a simple idea: building or remodeling a home should be an enjoyable experience. It begins with listening, communicating clearly, and building a relationship based on trust.

We don't believe our job is to tell you what your home should be. Our job is to understand what you want, bring the experience and craftsmanship to make it possible, and guide you through the process from beginning to end.

Tom McClain, Owner of LT Northwest Builders, Bend Oregon custom home builder

We've spent four decades in Central Oregon, raised our four kids here, and watched Bend change more than we ever could have imagined. We love this place and are proud to call it home. We want your home to mean just as much to you and your family.
