ABOUT US

Blake LaRue’s connection to the construction industry began early. Growing up in South Texas, he spent his youth learning the fundamentals firsthand, assisting his father with the family fence business until he left for Texas A&M at 22. This hands-on experience ignited a passion for carpentry that continues to drive him. After earning his B.S. in Construction Science from Texas A&M University, Blake launched his career as a project engineer, contributing to projects ranging from high school renovations to new ground-up construction. His dedication and expertise quickly propelled him through the ranks, advancing to project manager and ultimately into executive leadership roles as a Project Executive. During this time, he gained extensive experience building large-scale retail sites, medical office buildings, hospital renovations, schools, universities, and some of the largest multifamily projects in Oregon.

Leadership Philosophy:
“Hard work pays off, but it is rarely instantly gratifying. Surround yourself with competence and exceptionalism and build confident people by encouraging them to take risks and supporting them if they fail.”

Vision for Pine Point Construction:
Blake’s vision for Pine Point Construction is to establish it as a model of excellence and dependability throughout the Pacific Northwest. He is committed to delivering superior craftsmanship, exceeding client expectations, and building lasting relationships within the community.

When he’s not focused on Pine Point Construction, you can find Blake in his workshop, restoring his 1975 Jeep and crafting furniture for his wife and four children.
