FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
South Bend, IN — November 19, 2025 — River Valley Construction Group is proud to announce that it has been awarded Platinum in the General Contractor category in the 2025 CommunityVotes South Bend awards. This top-tier recognition reflects the company’s continued commitment to craftsmanship, client experience, and exceptional project delivery across Northern Indiana and the Southern Lake Michigan region.
CommunityVotes is a community-driven awards program where local residents nominate and vote for their favorite businesses. Earning Platinum in the General Contractor category positions River Valley Construction Group among the region’s most trusted and respected builders, an honor that underscores the company’s reputation for reliability, transparency, and high-quality construction.
In addition to the general contracting recognition, River Valley Construction Group also received Platinum in the Deck Builder category, further validating its expertise in outdoor living projects. While the company is widely known for custom home building and large-scale renovations, its deck division has grown significantly, earning praise for award-winning craftsmanship and durable, long-lasting installations.
“We are incredibly honored to receive these awards,” said DJ Tavernier, owner of River Valley Construction Group. “What makes CommunityVotes special is that it comes directly from the people we serve, homeowners who trust us with their dream homes, their major renovations, and their outdoor spaces. That trust means everything to us.”
River Valley Construction Group has become a leader in the region for new home construction, full home remodels, additions, and high-quality exterior projects. The company is licensed in both Indiana and Michigan, serving communities throughout South Bend, Granger, Mishawaka, Elkhart, and the Southern Lake Michigan area.
The team attributes its success to its client-first philosophy, detailed project planning, and deep commitment to local craftsmanship, values that have helped the company stand out in a crowded field of contractors.
“As we grow, our mission stays the same: build it right, build it honestly, and build it to last,” added Tavernier. “These awards are a reflection of that commitment, and we’re grateful to everyone who took the time to vote.”
River Valley Construction Group extends its appreciation to all clients, partners, and supporters who contributed to this milestone and looks forward to continuing to serve the South Bend community with excellence.
