Our History
“In 1994 I had been working for a large bank managing much of their construction and remodeling projects.
In addition, I had worked in Christian ministry as a church pastor since 1975. I had learned the construction
trade, and experienced first-hand, the needs and lives of many people. Through a sequence of events,
I decided to begin my own remodeling and renovation company. I believed that if I gave people a quality
job every time, I would never lack for work. This has proven true and I still operate on this principle today.”
Stephen E. Shook, President and Owner

We have long record of very satisfied customers. RARCO will never start a job without a firm promise to complete quality work on time and for the cost agreed. We have an established system, where the customer is regularly involved, consulted, and briefed about the work being done. In addition, we work based on a detailed, signed contract, specific time commitments from RARCO, regular customer conferences, scheduled walk-through, no hidden costs or surprises,and a well-explained construction process.
