One crew for every trade. From the first wall to the final coat.

The MC way

Meet Michael

The owner on every job.

Michael Portillo, Mike to most of our customers, runs MC Innovation and leads every project himself. He believes in fair, written prices, honest advice and doing the work right the first time, and he'd rather tell you what you don't need than upsell you.

He keeps learning the trade, too: in 2025 he completed Schluter-Systems’ Innovation Workshop on waterproof showers and tile floors.

Off the job, you'll find him with his daughters, out fishing or on the boat.
