Licensed general contractor in denver
When homeowners in Denver start researching a remodel, they are often looking for two things at once: a contractor they can trust to build correctly, and a design team that can make the result worth building. Most of the time those are two separate hires with two separate contracts and a gap between them where most project problems originate.
At Lindy Design Build, the licensed general contractor and the design team are the same company. Lars Lindquist, our Managing Partner, holds a General Contractor license and has been executing residential construction since he was 17 years old. Every project Lindy takes on is permitted, managed, and built under his license, with Dave Lowrey, our Superintendent, overseeing field operations with more than 40 years of hands-on construction experience behind him.
our construction track record
We are known in the Denver market for two things that are surprisingly rare in residential construction: finishing on time and finishing close to the original estimate.
Our feasibility process is specifically designed to surface the variables that cause construction surprises before a project begins. Structural conditions, permit timelines, material lead times, and subcontractor scheduling are all accounted for before we commit to a scope and price. The result is a number you start with that reflects what the project actually involves, not a low bid designed to win the job and grow through change orders.
Our clients document this consistently in their reviews. A recent client noted that their estimate was within 5% on a substantial scope and the project finished slightly ahead of schedule. That is the standard we hold ourselves to on every project.
what a licensed contractor actually does
A general contractor is the legally responsible party for a construction project. Not responsible in a vague, general sense, but in a documented, permitted, inspected sense. The GC's license is what enables permits to be pulled. The GC's insurance is what covers the project if something goes wrong. The GC is the party a homeowner can hold accountable if the work does not meet code or does not match what was agreed to.
In Denver and surrounding municipalities, residential remodeling permits are required for structural changes, electrical work, plumbing modifications, and home additions. A project that moves forward without permits creates a liability that lives on the property and surfaces at resale. We pull every permit required for every project. That is not negotiable.
