Michael Schwarz
Owner of Lava Island Builders
“I get a lot of joy out of the interactions I have with our customers. I like making the customer happy. I’m not happy until they’re happy.”
About Michael Schwarz
Born on the Oregon coast and raised in the beautiful Willamette Valley, Michael grew up with an appreciation of nature and everything the Pacific Northwest has to offer. As soon as he could walk Michael exhibited a love for tinkering and building. He knew from a young age that he wanted to own his own business. A curious mind, resourcefulness, and a work ethic that rivals that of a leafcutter ant are all traits that he carries in his genes.
Michael graduated from Oregon State University in 2006 with a degree in Business Finance. He spent a decade working for a large Portland-based construction company, gaining experience in everything from customer service to managing large-scale commercial projects. Michael began to see his passion wasn’t in managing people and projects, but instead he preferred being in the middle of the work itself.
Michael and his wife moved their young family to central Oregon in 2015, trading the valley rain for the desert air. Lava Island Builders was started in fall of 2015, and Michael went to work as a contractor. His joy comes from being hands on, and getting to know his customers in their homes instead of only on paper. His clients appreciate his clear communication, dependability, and a finished quality that he would expect in his own home. Only when the homeowner is completely satisfied, does Michael feel like the job is done. Many of Michael’s former customers call him back with additional projects they’d like him to do — the best evidence that people truly do value the experience and craftsmanship that Michael offers.
When he’s not at work, you can find Michael on a mountain bike trail, backpacking with his family, splitting firewood, or grilling on the back deck. He loves doing research on the latest and greatest tools, playing disc golf with his kids, and working on his wife’s aging car.
If you want a home project done right, with a contractor who provides personalized service, great attention to detail, and whose priority is your satisfaction, then give Michael a call.
Even as a toddler Michael was interested in building and construction. Check out these shots from the family album where he’s built a tower of things to climb up on to “fix the wall!”
