OUR STORY

Before Rulaco began, Tom and Ron were each building their own paths in the trades. Ron started over 40 years ago, mastering every part of residential construction and running a successful HVAC business. Tom was flipping houses and sharpening his carpentry skills, eventually focusing on high-end remodels across Columbus. They teamed up over a decade ago, and by 2016, Rulaco Remodeling was born—right at Tom’s kitchen table. What started small grew into a trusted company known for craftsmanship, integrity, and strong client relationships.

When COVID hit, they leaned in—taking on major projects like the Market Bar and building their first tiny home, The Coop.

Today, Rulaco serves homeowners across Central Ohio with everything from kitchens and baths to full renovations and custom tiny homes.

The name Rulaco reflects the values at the heart of the business—family and legacy. It’s formed from the letters of Ron and Tom’s children's names, a reminder of why they build and who they’re building for.

Their mission stays the same: Build it right. Treat people well. Let the work speak for itself.
