Craftsmanship That Fits Your Life — and the Home You Love.

AAA Home Improvements

Colorado’s Trusted Experts in Home Remodeling & Additions Custom kitchens, additions, ADUs, and renovations built to last.

Home Remodeling

ADU Construction

Home Additions

Whether you’re adding a second story, crafting an ADU for your parents, or designing a custom home from the ground up — you need more than a contractor.
You need a partner who can visualize your goals, navigate zoning, manage complexity, and build with integrity.

Elite Homes Require a Different Kind of Builder

If you’re here, you’re likely not asking: “How much does a remodel cost?” You’re asking better questions:

“Can I build up instead of moving out?”
“How do I make my land work harder for me?”
“What’s possible on my property — and who can make it happen?”
“How do I find someone I can trust to manage a six- or seven-figure project?”

We may not have built 500 homes. But the ones we’ve built? We’d put them up against anyone’s.

We built our firm around homeowners like you — families, professionals, and visionaries who want a project done once, done right, and done to last.

What We Build — For Families Who Refuse to Settle

Whether you’re working with a blank lot or bursting seams in your existing home, we help you create the space, function, and long-term value your family needs — without cutting corners or compromising your vision.

We don’t do “one-size-fits-all” — we build what fits you.

Your Next Step Isn’t a Quote — It’s a Conversation

We’re not a one-call-close contractor. We’re a high-touch design-build partner for homeowners who want the job done right — not done twice.

Architectural Additions & Second Story Pop-Tops

When your family’s growing but your square footage isn’t, a home addition is more than construction — it’s a lifeline.

From structural second-story pop-tops that double your living space to custom room expansions that blend beautifully into your existing footprint, we don’t just “add on” — we elevate your home’s design, flow, and resale value.

Our additions aren’t obvious — they’re seamless.

We’re not a one-call-close contractor. We’re a high-touch design-build partner for homeowners who want the job done right — not done twice.

Luxury ADUs & Multigenerational Living Spaces

We build accessory dwelling units (ADUs) that do more than meet code — they meet your family’s evolving needs.

Whether it’s a detached guest house, a garage apartment, or a basement rental suite, we create turnkey units that respect privacy, generate income, and increase your home’s long-term utility. All designed to pass zoning, appraisals — and the test of time.

This isn’t just a building. It’s independence, income, and future planning — built right into your backyard.

Custom Homes Built From the Ground Up

You’re not looking for tract homes. You’re building your forever home — and you need a team who understands land planning, architectural flow, energy efficiency, and everything it takes to turn your dream into a legacy.

From hillside views to city lots, we design and build custom homes that reflect your values, your vision, and your lifestyle — with clear planning, full transparency, and total craftsmanship at every step.

Build once – Build well

Build with a partner who sees what’s possible.

We’re not a one-call-close contractor. We’re a high-touch design-build partner for homeowners who want the job done right — not done twice.

Whole Home Remodeling & Structural Reconfiguration

Sometimes the best foundation is the one you already own. We help you reimagine your home’s layout through wall removal, layout changes, expanded kitchens, restructured floor plans, and luxury finish upgrades — all while maintaining the bones you love.

These aren’t cosmetic facelifts — they’re full transformations. And they require a builder who can think structurally, build precisely, and manage every moving part.

You don’t have to move to live better — you just need a builder who knows how to unlock your home’s full potential.

What Sets Us Apart from Legacy Contractors

Modern Design, Not Dated Blueprints

We’re not recycling floorplans. We create bold, intentional architecture that reflects today’s lifestyles and tomorrow’s expectations.

White-Glove Design-Build Approach

From the first sketch to the final walk-through, you work with one team that owns every detail — no middlemen or miscommunication.

Unmatched Transparency

We prioritize clear communication, full budget visibility, and proactive project updates. You’ll never be left guessing.

Selective Project Load

We only take on a small number of custom home builds each year — so your home receives the care and attention it deserves.

I cannot say enough great things about AAA. I've worked with them multiple times, and they have always been super professional. Toby and his team were always timely and responsive when I asked questions. I've referred several friends to AAA because they do great work. My family is considering building an ADU, and we plan on having AAA build it. I highly recommend AAA for any project, big or small. They are great!

We had a great experience working with Toby and his team building a second story addition on our 100+ year old bungalow. In fact our first project so well, we hired them again to remove some walls and open the kitchen to the main living areas of the home, and finally complete a full remodel of our kitchen including redesigning the entire layout, moving the gas lines, water lines, drain lines, new electrical, cabinets and even a new kitchen ceiling. I don't have any reason I would ever hire anyone else after two successful experiences with AAA Home Improvements.

AAA home improvements recently finished our basement. From the start to finish, the project went great. Starting with Bob on the design and working with Luke, Toby, JT, we were thoroughly impressed with each phase of the work. Eddie, Rich, Merrill, Robert, Carlos, Andre, Antonio were all experts in their trades and we couldn’t have asked for better crews on this project. The basement was completed as scheduled and It turned out perfect! We highly recommend this company and would use them again on any future projects we may have.

Our first experience with AAA Home Improvements was in about 2006 for a “refresh” of our kitchen (light remodel). Since then they have assisted us with restoration repairs when a pipe broke, flooding our finished basement, then a deck, then new roofing and finishing a basement when we moved in 2013. In 2019 we came back to AAA for a major kitchen remodel, followed by a complete renovation of our primary bathroom a couple years later. We kept returning to AAA Home Improvements time after time because of the blend of customer service and expertise that they provide. Toby is very solution oriented and reasonable to work with when problems arise. Years of history of working with a firm that is obviously concerned with getting the job done right led us to asking Toby if AAA Home Improvements would be willing to tackle a new build in a mountain community. Working with Luke and Toby on the design-build of the house was an enormous task with beautiful results! We will continue to recommend AAA Home Improvements and seek them out for future projects. (In photos: the brick wall and windows were previously a wall of cabinets, the cooktop was moved off the island, the soffit was removed and the arch entryway was enlarged.)
