Craftsmanship. Clarity. Commitment.
When you hire Squared Up Builds, you're hiring the people whose names are on the truck. Aaron Schwetz started this company in 2013 with a simple standard: build it right, build it square, and treat every project like it's our own home. More than a decade later, that's still how we run every job, from a trim package in Ellensburg to a whole-home renovation in Suncadia.
We're a small, skilled crew on purpose. You'll get straight answers, a clear written quote, and the same faces on your job from demo day to the final walkthrough.
