Greeley remodeling
and custom homes.

Greeley's housing runs from early-1900s homes near the University of Northern Colorado to new subdivisions on the west side. We design and build kitchens, baths, basements, and custom homes across all of it.

§ 01 · Building in Greeley

No two Greeley projects start from the same place. A remodel in one of the older neighborhoods near downtown and UNC often means updating wiring, plumbing, and framing that predate modern code. A project in west Greeley is more likely to be a newer home with a builder-grade kitchen and an unfinished basement.

We scope each one for what it is — and we're upfront early about what an older house may reveal once the walls are open.

§ 03 · Permits

Greeley permits,
managed for you.

The City of Greeley requires permits to construct, enlarge, alter, or repair buildings and their electrical, gas, mechanical, and plumbing systems, and it has adopted the 2021 International Residential Code with local amendments. We prepare drawings and submittals to that standard.

Projects that also go through planning review typically follow a review cycle of about two weeks depending on complexity. We sequence design so permitting doesn't become the long pole in your schedule.

§ 04 · Site conditions

Weld County
ground conditions.

Greeley shares the Front Range's clay-heavy soils that expand and contract with moisture — the hazard the Colorado Geological Survey ranks as the state's most damaging. Older Greeley homes in particular can show the effects in basements, so we evaluate foundations before finishing over them.

Weld County also carries high radon potential, and radon testing is standard on every basement project we take on here.
