Aaron Kraft
Owner
Aaron Kraft is the owner of Rivers Edge Construction & Remodeling, where he leads the company with a focus on quality craftsmanship, strong relationships, and creating a remodeling experience homeowners can feel confident in from start to finish.
With years of hands-on experience in construction and remodeling, Aaron understands both the details that make a project successful and the importance of having the right team behind it. His experience in the field continues to shape the way he leads Rivers Edge today, from overseeing operations and supporting the team to building trusted relationships with clients, trade partners, and the community.
As the sole owner of Rivers Edge, Aaron is focused on building on the company’s strong foundation while leading it into its next chapter. His goal is not simply to grow the business, but to continually raise the standard for residential remodeling in the Fort Wayne area by improving the client experience, investing in his team, and delivering work that reflects the level of care and craftsmanship Rivers Edge is known for.
Aaron believes success is measured by more than the number of projects completed. It is found in the trust earned with homeowners, the relationships built along the way, the quality of the finished work, and creating a company that both clients and employees are proud to be part of.
Outside of Rivers Edge, Aaron enjoys spending time with his wife, Kearstin, and their three children. His faith and family are central to the way he approaches leadership, business, and life, and they continue to shape his commitment to serving others with integrity, humility, and purpose.
