We likely wouldn’t have survived the experience intact if not for our builder, and brother-in-law, David Ellis. David’s wife, Jeanne, is Paula’s sister. Being related to David allowed us to witness firsthand the countless, amazing homes he has built and renovated in Boulder over the years. It would have felt weird using any other builder since we’re family but the reality is that we chose David because we knew beyond the shadow of a doubt that he’d do a great job.
David introduced us to an architect and an interior designer and they too were terrific to work with. They took the time to understand our needs and our budget and got to know us well enough to appreciate our sense of style as well as our lifestyle.
Going into the project I knew that David was a very competent builder. What I didn’t know was that he’s psychic. Okay, maybe he’s not actually psychic but he displayed an incredible sixth sense and a knack for envisioning the final product when all we saw was studs and vacant spaces. We dodged several major mistakes that neither the architect nor the designer recognized. David had the vision and foresight to second-guess various layout choices and to guide us to a much better solution. Looking now at the final product, we feel so thankful that we didn’t stick with the original design but trusted David’s instincts and implemented his recommendations.
He also protected us from ourselves on a few occasions when we made some questionable decisions about things like hardwood floors. The depth and breadth of his experience enabled him to guide us through these choices with learned advice about the pros and cons associated with our options. We ultimately trusted his advice and are so happy with the outcomes of the decisions we made. With the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, I can’t think of one single thing we would have done differently if we had known then what we know now. Paula and I are pretty confident in our tastes and style but David Ellis gets all the credit for taking our concept and making it reality and making it a home.
I've been dealing with my builder and select contractors for many months and I couldn't ask for a better relationship which has ensured the successful outcome.
At the onset, they provided me with a realistic quote based on my specific preferences for the build. Throughout construction they notified me if my selections were within my quote.
I can't say enough about David Ellis, his staff, and contractors. Not only are they terrific people they seem to be the best at what they do and focus on detail. It was so easy to put my confidence and trust in these people. They kept me informed throughout the project and helped guide me with they're expert advice.
If you join forces with this reputable builder, you should have a pleasurable and successful outcome and be ensured that there will be no shortcuts or big charge variations. I always felt Ellis Construction was looking out for my best interest and getting the job done swiftly and correctly and treated me like family. I couldn't be more sincere in my recommendation.
We believe this relationship, along with, of course his level of knowledge in the field was key in creating an atmosphere where superior workmanship stands out.
Our home is GORGEOUS! Attention was given to every detail! & those details were handled by David(& his team) in the MOST mindful and conscientious way EVERYDAY!
We were always updated and knew the expectations either through the email alerts from our individual program that he & Sarah set up, or just constant communication. We established what mode would work best for us in the beginning, & David always did his best to accommodate us!
This project was a long distance one for us(we live in Michigan), so being able to communicate when necessary was so important to us. David's great personality made the constant interactions easy & we always felt comfortable asking questions and reassured when we needed input.
We always knew what our options were along with our budget. David went above and beyond to make sure we were content with EVERY decision that needed to be made. The people he chooses to work on the job site represent the level of excellence, pride & RESPECT that CLEARLY stands out, not only in his finished product, but also naturally in the dedicated person he is.
From Dave, the foreman, to one of my favorites, Hank, the wonderful man who installed the carpet, it seemed every person/contractor involved, had a personal interest in making their piece of our home the BEST part.
I felt they each truly cared and took pride in making our home the PERFECT place for us! It was a total collaborative effort that could only be led by a man who TRULY stands out in his field. Without a doubt, we would recommend David Ellis - Construction!
We have been in our house for two years now and have had no major issues. The few minor things that have come up, David has addressed promptly. Always willing to help out, David has shown that he continues to care about - and take pride in - the homes he builds. I highly recommend Ellis Construction and will use him again for any future house projects we have. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me at 303-246-3858.
I've worked with David on several projects now; projects handled with great precision and sincere commitment to the overarching ideal of customer satisfaction.His ability to manage the complex array of trades, the requirements dictated by an"active" regulatory community, all the while managing his customer's expectations and their selection process has been amply demonstrated.
of a home, the ricia great Contractor to handle he costa his be remodelreturned as a result of a competitive bid process. This single metric for the selection of your Contractor can, and likely will, prove to be folly, when the realities that drove that low cost become apparent. I have, at times, been faced with under-qualified individuals in the construction trade that were present on the jobsite due to their sole possession of the "low bid". On numerous occasions, such individuals fail to provide adequate coordination for trades causing costly delays and oversights, and the quality of the finished product suffers. I will be glad to attest that David Ellis is not one of those individuals!
