WHO WE ARE

Building on Heritage — Our Approach to Home

At The Refiner’s Collective, we take pride in being a central Indiana, third-generation construction company with a rich heritage and a commitment to excellence. We are a collective of people, skills, and strengths who are passionate about revitalizing old spaces and building new ones. Whether you need a room remodel, a complete home renovation, or are building a new home, our team has the expertise to take your vision to reality. At the core of our philosophy is an unwavering commitment to honesty and reliability. We understand that building or renovating a space is a significant investment. That’s why we always strive to deliver exceptional workmanship, use high-quality materials, and maintain open, transparent communication. We know every project will have it’s challenges, and no home is perfect. What matters most is that those challenges are handled with transparency, care, and high-level problem solving.


We believe that your home is more than just a collection of rooms — it’s a reflection of your personality, your family’s history, and your dreams for the future. Home is the space that fosters family, community, and cherished memories. It’s where we gather — where we laugh, cry, heal, and dance together. We care deeply about creating homes that are not only functional and beautiful but also filled with love, laughter, and comfort. From the warm embrace of a well-designed living room to the soothing backdrop of a beautifully renovated bathroom, we strive to create spaces that inspire and nurture. At The Refiner’s Collective, we are honored to be a part of the journey of transforming spaces into homes that truly reflect the lives and stories of our clients.


That’s who we are, and it’s who we’ll be.

Building on a Tradition of 50+ Years

For over five decades, the family business has been at the forefront of the construction industry in Lafayette, IN. Our story began in 1971 as S. Rider Construction, when a determined father laid the foundation for what would become a family legacy. The business evolved under the stewardship of his sons, who brought fresh perspectives and innovative approaches to the table. Now, it’s our turn to carry on this time-honored tradition. Although the business has grown and expanded, our roots are still the same — a deep commitment to hard-work, honesty, the ideals of family, and most importantly God.
