Tim Valine Construction, Inc

TIM VALINE

Tim Valine began working in the construction industry at the age of sixteen. He worked his way through nearly every trade, doing what was necessary to remain employed during some of the industry’s most challenging times while gaining hands-on experience under the guidance of skilled mentors throughout the years.

Tim has performed all major trades in a professional capacity, ranging from small-scale custom remodels to multi-family tract home developments. His understanding of how tradespeople interrelate on job sites, combined with his firsthand knowledge of the construction assembly process, gives him an intimate perspective on construction methods and best practices.

New construction, remodels, restoration, commercial, and residential projects all present unique challenges and potential issues. Meeting those challenges during construction—and resolving problems through proactive planning and practical expertise—has been a defining characteristic of Tim’s career.
