About Restore Hawaii Construction (RHC)

Founded in 2019 by Gabriel Neufeld, RHC began with a vision to bring quality construction services to Oʻahu. In 2020, Gabriel was joined by his brother Eli, a seasoned small business owner in the construction industry. Their shared commitment to integrity and excellence quickly earned them a strong reputation.

In 2020, while volunteering to clear storm debris on the North Shore, they met Aaron Simmons, a skilled finish carpenter and framer with over 20 years of experience. Aaron's dedication to community service and craftsmanship made him a perfect fit for the team.

As demand for their services grew, they welcomed Gil and Elliot Meijer in 2021. Gil brought leadership and design expertise, while Elliot managed finances and projects. Together, they embraced the Hawaiian value of 'ohana, strengthening their bond and expanding their impact.

By 2022, RHC had grown to a team of five, including Yoel Zauber and Caleb Pegues, who share the company's vision. With expanded services in design and layout, RHC continues to build with aloha, serving the community and upholding the spirit of family.
