Custom home builder in Gunnison County

Class B-1 CommercialClass C ResidentialGround-up · TurnkeySite work in-house

A Gunnison County custom home lives or dies on the site work under it.

We deliver full-scope custom homes around Gunnison, Crested Butte, Almont — planning, permitting, foundations, framing, finishes, and the coordination between engineers, inspectors, and county officials. Gunnison County is the kind of ground where the site is the hard part.

Because we run our own excavation, septic, and water-storage crews, the toughest parts of a build at 7,700–9,000 ft — the access, the foundation, the water, the wastewater — are handled in-house instead of subbed out and hoped for. From feasibility through final CO, you get one accountable team.

Custom Home Construction in Gunnison County — questions

How much does a custom home cost in Gunnison County?

It varies widely with site, size, and finish — mountain site development (access, foundation, septic, water) is the swing factor. We scope it during feasibility so you get a real budget.

Can you build on a steep or remote Gunnison County lot?

That's our normal. One of the coldest valleys in the state, rocky benches, and short seasons is exactly the terrain we're set up for.

Do you handle septic, water, and the driveway too?

Yes — all in-house, which is a major advantage on a Gunnison County build where those are the hardest parts.
