What We Do
At DC Builders, we specialize in custom residential construction that’s anything but standard. From the initial design concept to move-in day, we manage every part of your build under one roof—including architectural design, structural engineering, interior design, framing and installation, and general contracting. This streamlined approach allows for better coordination, more creative control, and a smoother overall experience.
We’re best known for our timber frame and hybrid wood structures, but every home we design is tailored to the homeowner—whether it’s a rustic modern lodge, a transitional-style home with clean lines and natural materials, or something completely original. For clients interested in pre-engineered building kits, we also work with our sister company, DC Structures, to create custom homes based on their signature line of prefab models.

Our Commitment
At DC Builders, we believe building your home should feel as inspiring as the home itself. That’s why we approach every project with clarity, transparency, and a deep respect for the land you’re building on. In Colorado Springs, that means understanding how to design homes that can handle elevation changes, seasonal weather patterns, and the unique character of every neighborhood. With over 20 years of experience building across the West, we’re committed to delivering a custom home that exceeds your expectations at every stage.

Most custom home builds in the Colorado Springs area take 12 to 18 months to complete. Our streamlined construction process—which includes pre-cut and pre-drilled framing lumber—helps reduce delays. A 3,000 sq. ft. home typically takes 9–12 months to build, with 2–3 months for dry-in and another 8–9 weeks for finishing.
