Wilsonville, Oregon, is a city primarily in Clackamas County, with a portion extending into Washington County, located along the Willamette River approximately 18 miles south of Portland, with a 2020 census population of 26,664 and an estimated 2026 population of 28,481. Founded as Boones Landing for the Boones Ferry that crossed the Willamette River, the community was renamed Wilsonville in 1880 and incorporated as a city in 1968 with a population of approximately 1,000 residents. Today, Wilsonville serves as a significant regional employment center, with over 20,600 jobs across 7.9 square miles, anchored by FLIR Systems, Siemens Industry Software, and Swire Coca-Cola. Pacific Building Solutions holds Oregon Contractor License #215897 and serves Wilsonville’s commercial and multi-family property market, including the Charbonneau and Villebois planned communities.

Wilsonville’s multi-family and HOA property landscape has a distinctive character shaped by two planned communities. The Charbonneau district, developed beginning in 1971 as one of the first major planned retirement and golf communities in Oregon, is now over 50 years old and carries significant multi-family envelope remediation needs across its age-specific housing stock. Villebois, a planned community begun in 2004 on the former Oregon State Fairgrounds property, represents the city’s most recent large-scale HOA development and is approaching the age at which its first construction defects are emerging. The Willamette River forms the city’s western boundary, and its moisture conditions affect the performance of the envelope for properties in the river corridor.

We do not perform small residential repairs or new construction. Our practice is focused on large-scale commercial and multi-family envelope remediation for HOA boards, property managers, construction attorneys, and ownership groups.

• Charbonneau: 50-Year-Old Planned Community Envelope Remediation: The Charbonneau district, developed from 1971, is now over 50 years old. Multi-family and attached housing in this planned community are in the deep remediation window for original siding systems, window systems, and weather barriers. Properties of this age in the Pacific Northwest’s wet climate carry the accumulated deferred maintenance of five decades of moisture exposure.
• Villebois: 2004-Era Construction Entering the Defect Window: Villebois, begun in 2004 on the former Oregon State Fairgrounds site, represents over 2,500 planned housing units in a master-planned HOA community. Properties built between 2004 and 2015 are now entering the construction-defect discovery stage. Like neighboring Sherwood and Happy Valley, this concentrated construction era is producing simultaneous defect discoveries across multiple HOA communities.
• Dual Clackamas and Washington County Permitting: Wilsonville spans Clackamas and Washington Counties. Our project teams handle permit coordination across both county systems as standard project management.
• Willamette River Corridor Moisture Context: The Willamette River forms Wilsonville’s western boundary. Properties in the city’s western districts and along the river frontage experience elevated ambient moisture levels that compound building-envelope vulnerability.
• Oregon State Licensing: We hold Oregon Contractor License #215897 as our primary license for all work in Wilsonville. We also hold Washington License #PACIFBS831MK for ownership groups managing cross-state portfolios.

Exterior Envelope Remediation for Charbonneau and Wilsonville Properties

Full building envelope assessment and remediation for multi-family and commercial properties throughout Wilsonville. The Charbonneau district’s 50-plus-year-old building stock and Villebois’s 2004-era construction require different assessment approaches. We calibrate our assessments to each property’s specific construction era and the site-specific conditions of the Willamette River corridor.

Multi-Family and HOA Siding Replacement

Large-scale siding replacement for Charbonneau’s aging HOA communities and Villebois’s newer developments. For Charbonneau’s older stock, siding replacement frequently reveals extensive sheathing and structural repair needs that we address within the same scope. We work with James Hardie fiber cement, Cedar, Craneboard, and Stucco/EIFS systems.

Construction Defect Repair for Villebois and 2004-Era Communities

Villebois properties built between 2004 and 2015 are entering the construction-defect discovery stage. We execute defect repair programs under the oversight of forensic consultants and attorneys, with documentation protocols designed for legal environments from the first day of assessment.

Water Intrusion Repair and System Restoration

Both Charbonneau’s aged envelopes and Villebois’s 2004-era construction can lead to water intrusion through different but equally consequential failure mechanisms. The Willamette River corridor moisture environment compounds those risks for properties in western Wilsonville. We trace the system-level cause specific to each property’s era and position.

Window System Replacement

Phased window replacement in occupied HOA communities using Andersen, Jeld-Wen, Marvin, Cascade, Milgard, and triple-pane systems. For Charbonneau’s older buildings, window replacement is frequently the primary driver of envelope remediation scopes. For Villebois’s newer stock, deficiencies in window system installation are among the most common defect findings.

Exterior Capital Improvement

For Wilsonville HOA boards managing reserve-funded capital improvement programs across Charbonneau, Villebois, and other planned communities, Pacific Building Solutions provides phased scheduling, documentation, and reserve study reporting aligned with reserve fund availability.

Does Pacific Building Solutions serve Wilsonville, Oregon?

Yes. Pacific Building Solutions serves Wilsonville and the south Portland Metro area for commercial and multi-family exterior envelope remediation, construction defect repair, siding replacement, and related services. We hold Oregon Contractor License #215897 and Washington Contractor License #PACIFBS831MK, and have operated throughout the Portland Metro region for nearly 30 years.

Does Pacific Building Solutions have experience with the Charbonneau planned community?

Yes. Charbonneau, developed from 1971, is a planned HOA community in Wilsonville with multi-family and attached housing stock that is now over 50 years old. Properties in Charbonneau are in the deep remediation window for original siding, windows, and weather barrier systems. Our experience with 1970s Pacific Northwest multi-family construction covers the building typologies and failure profiles common throughout the Charbonneau district.

What construction defect issues are typical in Villebois’s 2004-era construction?

Villebois properties built between 2004 and 2015 are entering the construction-defect discovery stage. The most common findings in Pacific Northwest HOA construction from that era are flashing deficiencies at window and door heads and deck ledgers; missing sill pan flashing; weather barrier omissions or incorrect installation; and cladding system failures in Stucco, EIFS, or improperly detailed fiber cement installations. These defects are often not visible from the exterior until they have produced interior water damage.

How does Wilsonville’s dual Clackamas and Washington County position affect building permits?

Wilsonville spans Clackamas and Washington Counties. Properties in different parts of the city fall under different county permit jurisdictions. Our project teams handle dual-county permit coordination as standard project management, without the confusion that can affect contractors unfamiliar with Wilsonville’s cross-county character.

Is Pacific Building Solutions licensed to work in Wilsonville and both Clackamas and Washington Counties?

Yes. We hold Oregon Contractor License #215897, which covers the full state of Oregon, including both Clackamas and Washington Counties. We also hold a Washington Contractor License #PACIFBS831MK. Both are active and current.

Wilsonville is a city primarily in Clackamas County, Oregon, with a portion extending into Washington County, situated along the Willamette River approximately 18 miles south of Portland. The community traces its origins to Boones Ferry, established by Alphonso Boone, a grandson of Daniel Boone, in 1847. The ferry crossing became the nucleus for a small settlement called Boones Landing, which was renamed Wilsonville in 1880 after early settler Charles Wilson. The city was incorporated on October 10, 1968, with a population of approximately 1,000 residents.

Two planned communities define Wilsonville’s residential character. Charbonneau, developed from 1971 as one of Oregon’s first major planned retirement communities, occupies the city’s western quadrant around a golf course and is home to thousands of HOA-governed housing units. Villebois, begun in 2004 on the former Oregon State Fairgrounds site, is a New Urbanist master-planned community planned for over 2,500 housing units. Interstate 5 runs through Wilsonville, including the Boone Bridge over the Willamette River. The city’s own transit system, SMART (South Metro Area Regional Transit), connects to TriMet’s WES Commuter Rail. With over 20,600 jobs across 7.9 square miles, Wilsonville is one of the most economically dense communities in the Portland South Metro area.
