Better Homes Inc. was founded in 1997 by Scott Herndon and his late father, Bob Herndon. The company was built on decades of hands-on experience, strong work ethic, and a commitment to treating homeowners with honesty and respect.

Bob spent most of his life working in exterior remodeling, and from a young age, Scott was right beside him learning the trade firsthand. Growing up around job sites and construction projects gave Scott an early understanding of quality craftsmanship, customer relationships, and the importance of doing the job right the first time.

Since the beginning, Better Homes Inc. has focused on providing homeowners with dependable exterior remodeling services backed by integrity and experience. The company has maintained a complaint-free history with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) and other legal organizations, reflecting its long-standing commitment to professionalism and customer satisfaction.

Today, Better Homes Inc. continues to build lasting relationships with homeowners by offering knowledgeable guidance, honest recommendations, and quality workmanship that customers can trust.

Scott Herndon began working in construction in the early 1990s and has spent his entire life around exterior remodeling. Having grown up in the industry alongside his father, Scott developed both a passion for the trade and a deep understanding of the challenges homeowners face when making decisions about their homes.

Scott believes homeowners deserve honest information without pressure or sales tactics. His approach is centered around education, communication, and helping customers make informed decisions that are truly right for their home and budget. As Scott often says, nobody likes a pushy used car salesman, and that philosophy continues to shape the way Better Homes Inc. works with its customers today.

Over the years, Scott has earned multiple certifications and professional affiliations that reflect his dedication to continuing education and industry standards. He is certified with the FGIA, the Home Builders Association, and lead-based paint removal through the CCB. He is also a member of the James Hardie Contractor Alliance and is GAF Residential Roofing Contractor Certified.

Beyond certifications, Scott values building strong long-term relationships with homeowners, suppliers, contractors, and other professionals throughout the industry. He enjoys sharing his knowledge with customers, working closely with his team, and helping homeowners feel confident throughout every stage of their remodeling project.
