The founders, Randal Ratcliff and James Stefano, began their careers as supervisors for a construction firm that set the standard in better neighborhoods for over 40 years, before establishing their own business in 1986.  Randal and James had established the reputation of completing their jobs, often one-of-a-kind projects, on time and on budget, to the complete satisfaction of their clients. 


Randal and James are no longer with us but the legacy has carried over with the family.  Our current leadership, without missing a step, during this transition, has continued to provide the same level of quality and service that we are known for.  We continue to follow  the beliefs of Randal and James, while  remaining a family business.  We offer commitment to our clients for quality service, customer care in building a superior home.

“With clientele that expect excellent results on-time and within budget, we have dedicated ourselves to providing exceptional service.”

Randal Ratcliff – Owner


In 1986, R.B. Ratcliff & Associates, concerned over the lack of quality millwork and production time, established their own mill company.  With a 20,000 square foot facility and state of the art equipment, the company produces custom quality products.  Since the early years, our mill shop has produced and provided some of the finest millwork of highest quality.  Our mill work can be found in some of the finest homes in Houston as well as historical sites in the city.
