Meet the builder

Three generations of building knowledge.

Jim Scaccia grew up learning the trades from his father and grandfather. He started building in his own backyard as a child, helped his father with additions as a teenager, and later designed and built his own home in the Baroda area.

Since 1992, Jim has worked in and on homes throughout Southwest Michigan. His experience ranges from remodeling and additions to repairs, custom installations and general contracting. Today, he especially enjoys smaller-scale interior and exterior projects where craftsmanship and problem-solving make a visible difference.

“Pride, Performance & Integrity.” The standard behind every RA Builders project.

RA Builders is fully licensed and insured in the State of Michigan.
