Nestled in the heart of Northfield, Minnesota, Johnson Reiland Builders & Remodelers is more than just a construction company; it’ s a family legacy built on craftsmanship, integrity, and a deep connection to the communities it serves. For over five decades, the Johnson Reiland name has been synonymous with quality homes and thoughtful developments across the Twin Cities and surrounding areas. Every project is approached with the same care, passion, and attention to detail that have defined the company since day one.

As Marketing and Development Manager Paul Reiland reflects:“ My father started out working in the trades, pouring concrete to put himself through college. He went on to law school and tried white-collar work for a while but realized his heart was still in the trades. That passion shaped the business from the start. He could relate equally well to our clients and our crew, as he understood both worlds.”
When it was time for Paul’ s father to step back, his twin brothers, Matthew and Michael, picked up the reins, breathing new life into the business.“ Today, Johnson Reiland is still family-owned and operated,” Paul continues.“ My brothers run the field, my cousin and sister-in-law handle the books, my son’ s one of our carpenters, and even my brother’ s old babysitter runs our front desk. It’ s a true family operation, through and through.”

That strong sense of family extends far beyond bloodlines.“ Our employees, suppliers, and subcontractors are part of what we call our‘ true family,’” says Paul.“ These are the people we trust and rely on every day. That loyalty pays off; it allows us to pull off projects others might find impossible, whether it’ s a tight timeline or intricate architectural challenges. We’ re not chasing the lowest bid; we’ re building lasting relationships that make great work possible.”
