Frequently Asked Questions

The timeline for building a custom home in Colorado typically ranges from 6 to 12 months, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Several factors can affect your timeline, including the permitting process in your county, weather conditions, site preparation needs, and the level of customization in your design.

Building in mountainous areas can sometimes add time to the process. Steep lots may require additional site work, and winter weather can slow down certain phases of construction. Our team plans for these factors from the start so there are fewer surprises along the way.

Here is a general breakdown of the custom home building process. Design and planning typically takes 4 to 8 weeks. Permitting and approvals usually take 4 to 6 weeks depending on the county. Site preparation and foundation work takes 3 to 6 weeks. Framing, roofing, and exterior work takes 6 to 10 weeks. Interior finishes, mechanical systems, and final details take 8 to 12 weeks.
