Projects completed by…

Michael J. Landes

My knowledge and ambition created opportunity, and I eventually managed projects and worked directly with

clients, architects and subcontractors, building custom homes and speculative homes, and doing extensive

remodels.

In 2004 I started Landes Construction where the client base was focused primarily on mid- level residential

remodels and additions. The projects that follow are a few of my most recent accomplishments in which I led the

development of the design and scope, as well as managed and performed the hands-on work of every phase in-

house with exception of flatwork, plumbing and electrical.

My passion for the construction industry began at

a young age. My father was a successful

developer in the greater Seattle area, building

custom homes and many of his own design-built

speculative homes.

At the age of 13, I started my first job as a laborer,

working on his jobsites learning how to use the

tools of the trade, laying out walls and swinging a

hammer, eventually becoming a accomplished

carpenter. Following graduation from high school, I pursued a degree in Construction Management.
