For business owners, brokers & developers
Private commercial construction.
Private clients encompass a diverse range of individuals and entities, including business owners, property managers, brokers, landlords, and developers.
Who we work with
Operators & owners
Building the spaces customers walk into.
Private clients encompass a diverse range — business owners, property managers, brokers, landlords, and developers. The common thread: they own the schedule, they own the brand experience, and they need a GC who treats both like they matter.
For a coffee shop, that means opening on time without sacrificing the finish. For a property manager, it’s a clean handoff between suite turnovers. For a developer, it’s procurement discipline and value engineering that actually holds. We bring the same playbook regardless of project size — the only thing that flexes is scope.
Featured Private Projects
Recent private work.
A cross-section of recent commercial work for private clients across Denver — each delivered on schedule and on budget.
Sugarcube and Historic Sugar
Three office suites — 250, 300, and 350 — for the same client, in the same building, in the same warm material language. The first turnover led to the next two. Cork flooring, timber accents, daylight-tuned lighting, and turnovers sequenced around an active leasing calendar.

FedEx Restoration
A major commercial restoration that ran from raw structure through full MEP rework to finished, occupiable space. The before-and-after panoramas tell most of this story without much commentary — the rest of it is in how cleanly we managed the in-between.

Halfdays
A flagship retail tenant improvement for a women's outerwear brand built on a single instinct: every fixture should feel like the brand. We delivered a buildout that photographs as well as it merchandises — and a cashier desk worth a permanent place on the brand's Instagram.

Little Owl Coffee Shop
A downtown coffee shop tenant improvement built around a single rule: open on schedule, no exceptions. Curved walls, warm wood, and a bar designed to keep the morning rush moving.

Four delivery models
Matched to your scope.
We tune the contract structure to the project. The throughline: a single accountable point of contact, transparent pricing, and a schedule we hold ourselves to.

Plan before you pour.
Estimating, value engineering, constructability review, and procurement strategy. Catch the cost, schedule, and design issues on paper.
CM / GC
Construction Management & General Contracting
For private builds where you want a single accountable team running schedule, budget, and trades. Negotiated and hard-bid both supported.
DESIGN - BUILD
Single contract, single team.
Design and construction under one agreement. Useful when you need to compress timeline, control cost, or remove handoff friction.
Tenant Improvement
Suite turnovers and fit-outs.
Lean TI methodology, clean site discipline, and the kind of tenant communication that protects the lease and the relationship.
