We worked with Northwind Construction in 2006/07 to repair some employee housing in Chemult, Oregon. We were very pleased with the results of their labor. They finished the project within the timeline given them in very unfavorable weather conditions. Joshua and Tamera Sauter were extremely pleasant to work with and were very professional in keeping the project within the scope of the contract and budget. We are extremely pleased with their work and would give them the opportunity to bid on any other projects that arise in the future.

Northwind Construction did a remodel on our home in LaPine, Oregon. They were kind enough to work around our schedules and were very quick and efficient to get the job done in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Northwind Construction.

Bob Lichney

We had Northwind Construction do some remodel work on our home in Sunriver, Oregon and water damage repair on a couple of apartments at a complex we own in Bend, Oregon. We highly recommend using them for skilled workmanship. We are very pleased with them ourselves and give them a three star rating. They are people that you can rely on.

LaPine Foursquare Church

Northwind Construction was involved in the remodel of our vacation home in SunRiver, Oregon. Joshua Sauter’s involvement required not only his specialty skills in construction and woodworking but management of subcontractors and coordination of the projects’ multiple parts. From the very beginning of the project Mr. Sauter was a professional. His behavior and skills in the various mentioned areas were outstanding. He not only completed the project early but did so with the final product being of outstanding quality. He was always available and paid close attention to details. Having built and remodeled a number of homes in a number of different states. I can say without any reservations that Mr. Sauter is by far the most reliable and thorough individual I have ever worked with. I would be happy to use Mr. Sauter and Northwind Construction on future projects and intend to do so.

This letter is in recommendation of Josh Sauter and Northwind Construction. He provided remodeling of the bathroom and plumbing in three residences here at the Fall River Fish Hatchery in SunRiver, Oregon. I found his bid to be detailed, accurate and well organized. As work progressed, I found his estimates to reflect actual costs. Their professional work habits were to be on time, fully prepared and organized. I found their work to be precise, complete and of expert quality. I recommend Northwind Construction without reservation.

I am writing you this letter on behalf of Northwind Construction. We hired them on a couple of occasions. We have been in the process of remodeling an old home here in Klamath County, Oregon. They refurbished one room in particular when we thought it couldn’t be done. In addition to high quality craftsmanship, Northwind Construction was always on time and finished the project in a timely manner. We highly recommend Northwind Construction.

Josh Sauter acted as our staff contractor and project manager in 2001-2002 during a year and a half renovation of a 10,000 square foot office building in Lafayette, California. His tasks were overseeing all aspects of the restoration and remodel job including running our staff construction crews and coordinating the subcontractors involved in this project. He drafted specs and sourced, interviewed and hired most of our subs. Josh also devised and drafted creative solutions to the various issues that arose during the job and he coordinated these changes with our architect and engineer and acquired necessary approvals from the building department. Given that I grew up in construction and I now run a property management and development company, I know when someone knows their job and Josh is among the best I’ve seen. Even after Josh left our employ he always made himself available to assist with problems and offer advice. I can confidently recommend Josh Sauter as a competent and dependable project supervisor who is also enjoyable to work with.

Josh Sauter has done several major projects over the years around my property in Bodega, California from concept and design to finished product. I would enthusiastically recommend his work. His work is first rate and he is extremely pleasant and honest person to deal with.

Mike Magne

It is a pleasure to write this letter of reference for Josh Sauter, general contractor, doing business as Northwind Construction. I recommend him without reservation. I’ve known Josh for almost 20 years and he has done many jobs for me during that period of time. I’ve always been completely satisfied with his work and in fact, my experience has been that his performance typically exceeds my expectations. He is timely, very professional, and his expertise is superb. I was dismayed when I found that Josh was leaving California, for I know I will have a difficult time finding someone else of the same caliber. Again I recommend him without reservation.

Richard Charter

We had the pleasure to have an extensive remodel on our Bodega Bay, California home done by Northwind Construction in early 2002. We were very pleased with the efficiency care and consideration taken to ensure the highest quality workmanship in every phase of our project. Our home is located directly above the Pacific Ocean and since it is exposed to intense winds and salt air, great care in roofing installation and copper flashing has made all the difference in the world in this environment. We would recommend Josh Sauter and Northwind Construction to anyone for new construction or remodel work.

Morry Goldstien

The remodel job at our home in Bodega Bay, California that Josh Sauter and Northwind Construction did on our kitchen was absolutely fantastic. Not only was the work completed on schedule, you can tell it was done by a skilled craftsman. Doing construction, remodeling or just fixing and repairing things in the house is always a little scary for a homeowner, because you’re not sure that the job will be done right, or that the person is reliable. With you we never doubted it once. Your professional approach, fair pricing, and keeping us informed (sometimes with emailed pictures!) so we always knew exactly what was going to happen and when, made it such a pleasure to work with you. I had complete trust in knowing that you could fix or build anything and do it right.

Bill Henke

I have owned a home for fifteen years in Valley Ford, California. In that time I have used Josh Sauter on numerous occasions to make repairs to my house and shop. His work is always professional and of the highest quality. If you are considering hiring Northwind Construction for a job I can only say that in my opinion, you will not be disappointed.

Jeff and Judy Mazzeo

My wife and I purchased a vacation home to make it a rental a few years ago in Bodega, California. The original hot tub location was dangerous and was a liability, with my vague ideas and Josh’s expertise, he created a plan (which we accepted), got the proper permits from the county and completed the project in a timely fashion! Now the hot tub is the rave of out guests and many have made it a point to comment about the privacy of the hot tub under the redwoods. We are very pleased with his work and would recommend Josh Sauter’s Northwind Construction. We are just sorry he moved away to Oregon! Thanks a bunch Josh! Good luck and if we ever move to Oregon we’ll say Hi.
