Diamond Ridge Construction is a locally owned company specializing in roofing, siding, framing, and custom homebuilding in the Iowa City/Cedar Rapids area.
We recently purchased a new home through Diamond Ridge and have been extremely satisfied with the process. We have worked with other builders before and never experienced this level of service. Even our realtor was pleasantly surprised by how easy they were to work with. Chandler and Nick are just really thorough, kind, and thoughtful people which makes all the difference. They really put care into the home and have been very quick to respond to any issues or questions that have come up since the purchase. We would highly recommend them and plan to use them in the future for projects!

I had Diamond Ridge renovate my large kitchen wall, stairs to the basement, and a renovated family room. The whole project took 4-5 weeks. Chandler Dewitt and Nick Jones were great to work with, very professional and dealt with my concerns. Their crews worked diligently and took extra care to keep the construction dust downstairs. I would highly recommend this company for any of your renovation needs. Give Nick or Chandler a call, you won’t be disappointed!!

I have had a great experience working with Diamond Ridge Construction. In 2024 they installed new siding, windows, doors, gutters and gutter guards. Now in 2025 they have replaced my deck and front railing and we are preparing for a kitchen and 2 bathroom remodel. I’m working with Chandler DeWitt and Nick Jones with this project.
They are very organized, respond to emails, texts and phone calls promptly and are helpful, professional and knowledgeable throughout the process. I recommend this company for interior and exterior updating and remodeling needs!

The experience we had with Diamond Ridge was top notch. We added a 4 seasons room onto our house. I met with Chandler and Nick. Chandler got my sense of the style I wanted and Nick kept the project on schedule and on budget. I dont have anything negative to say. When we go to redo other parts of our home we will be using Diamond Ridge.

We hired Diamond Ridge to do some exterior repair and painting on our home and they were wonderful to work with! Chandler and Nick were patient answering our questions, made good suggestions, and were excellent communicators. We never wondered when a contractor would show up or what the next steps would be as they sent weekly updates and would quickly communicate any changes in scheduling. Our project was completed earlier than anticipated, and stayed right on budget! We would definitely hire them again.
