Builders in Fort Collins, CO

Coby they do Fort Collins as well. Give Tom a call at 303.921.7231 (that's his cell). And yes, they do basically anything on the exterior, really good quality work, super nice guy!

Don't forget to seal your deck after you build it. http://youtu.be/hkmeoYKYctw

I listen to audio book every day in the car. https://www.overdrive.com/ is free. I'd recommend https://www.twitter.com/lordgrimdark or https://www.twitter.com/patrickrothfuss

Get yourself a podcast app and start lostening to The Adventure Zone! Failing that The Dresden Files series is pretty great.

Not sure if there is an Audio Book for this, but "The Name of the Wind" is a good fantasy novel if thats your bag.

Tim Robbins reads Fahrenheit 451 pretty well, and Stephen Fry's done Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Welcome to Fort Collins friend. Finding good people to do any kind of skilled labor on contract is pretty hard. When repairing my fence I went through almost 30 different people. Half never called back, the other half were super booked, and the in between people looked like they just got off of a meth bender. Keep looking and you'll eventually find someone, but with the shortages of materials and all the new house construction most builders are not available.

Damn, this makes me want to renew my contractor's license in this state.

I have a husband and wife (to be) who help me out with dry wall and painting. I don't know if they'd build a deck but maybe. DM me if you still need info. The guy is Black. edit - I know they've been swamped so you might not hear back from them for a day or two.

Pm’d you

This comment doesn't address OP's question directly but is more of a statement about home ownership in 2021. Wife and I sold our mobile home and decided to rent. One of the primary reasons was exactly what you are describing. Sure, we don't own, but we also have no property ownership headaches and now live in a well managed community even when we were financially ready to take on home ownership (no more mobile home). We even presented contractors with "Money is not an issue" and still no shows, no reply, etc. Lived here for over 10 years at the time and it has been getting progressively worse. We had to take one contractor to court for putting down a deposit and then having months-long excuses for no work done then ducking our attempts to contact. We finally got our money back. I have a friend who purchased new construction and is finding poor workmanship with many home warranty claims within months of owning. Regarding race concern, which I know adds complexity for you: I am half Mexican but present as white, wife is white. My parents, in North Carolina, are dealing with the same issue. I called many advertising contractors for work on their home and repeats of no show, no contact, and if they did get someone, less than ideal workmanship. Maybe it is a generational thing? There's stories upon stories like mine for sure and it is not like how I remember when I was younger.

Elite construction just did my friend’s deck, and it looks fantastic,they are also known to be inclusive people. office@elitesc.net

I had a nightmare of a time finding a landscaper to build me a concrete patio and I’m neither black nor a man. So many companies were cancelling on me day of for consultations. I finally went with someone and it took weeks for them to schedule to start and 2 weeks to do a 2 day job. It’s a nasty time all around. Apparently all the landscaping companies are having a rough time finding laborers and a lot of them aren’t willing to do small residential jobs right now because there’s more money in commercial projects.

We've used Capital Construction for a few projects and have been very happy with them! https://www.capital-construction.biz/

We used Sundeck Designs a while back to build a cover for our patio. [http://sundeckdesigns.net/](http://sundeckdesigns.net/) They're a small, local company (husband & wife). I knew ahead of time from reading reviews that they weren't great with ongoing communication. So, I had to be more proactive. Our job was small, and we were happy it turned out the way we had envisioned. Good luck!

If you’re still looking for another recommendation, I am in the midst of a project with a handyman who can do drywall amongst a lot of other things!

I work at a construction materials supplier, it’s a crazy time in the industry right now. We have had price increases every single month so far this year on every single product we carry. Combine that with so many people having problems finding labor (fucking pay people more), and it’s very tough to get smaller jobs done. Make sure you get a contract that specifies that it includes any price increases on materials for the timespan of the job. The permit process is also adding a lot of time, my carport permits took 5 months to go through and my materials cost rose 34%. I have heard nothing but good things about Decks Of Distinction. I used Diligent Builders for my carport, Dan was incredible. They don’t usually build carports, but I caught him between jobs and he built us a beautiful big carport. Good luck, FoCo is very liberal, but we are surrounded by conservative rednecks who might have racist animosity.

Everyone has this problem in Ftc.

Check out Chile's home improvement. Chile is a great guy and has done lot's of decks, framing, bathrooms, kitchens, you name it.

See yards you like and try to ask the homeowners who they used. Getting a landscape plan is very worth the cost. Dig down ( a tiny bit below grade) for your garden rather than raised beds. Retaining water is #1 in Colorado, rather than too much (back East for raised beds). Gary Kershaw/Fort Collins landscape is the only name I know
