Residential construction and remodeling services in Colorado.

Most enquiries begin with one of four questions. If the goal is more square footage, the choice is between building out, building up and finishing space you already own — the planning ranges and trade-offs are set out in our Denver metro home addition cost guide, and basement remodeling is usually the cheaper route to the same room count.

If the goal is usable outdoor space, decks and outdoor living covers open, covered and ground-level structures, while a conditioned sunroom or patio enclosure is priced and permitted as an addition. If the driver is the envelope — leaks, drafts, hail damage or tired siding — exterior remodeling and window and exterior door replacement are scoped together, because replacing one over failed flashing hides the problem rather than fixing it.

Whichever category applies, the reviewing jurisdiction changes the schedule more than the scope does. That varies by address — see Littleton, Lakewood and Highlands Ranch for how permitting works in each, or our ten-step process for the order everything happens in.
