Had Jose completely finish my basement and have never worked with a better contractor in my life. Not only was he always on time, but with every project comes issues, each and every time he was fair quick and honest with each issue. That being said, there was one real issue and he resolved it as quickly as possible and i could not have been happier to have picked him as the person to finish my basement. He completely gutted the basement, added a bathroom, and understood my vision for the basement. All inspections passed which made me truly know he knew what he was doing. could not recommend him more to anyone else and i continue to pass his number out to friends and family asking about the project.
Jose is one of the most professional and knowledgeable contractor I have ever worked with! I could not be more confident to recommend him for any framing work. He went above and beyond. We passed inspection first pass without issue. Best of the best. He is a basement expert.
From the first contact with Jose, I knew he was a man of his word and stood by his work. His professionalism was above average and the craftsmanship is top-notch. I would highly recommend him to anyone and am going to recommend him to everyone. Jose and his company have far surpassed my expectations. Thanks to him my project is going very smoothly and will be completed in a timely manner. I cannot say enough great things about Jose. He took the time to explain everything and ensure that his work is going to stand the test of time. Thank you again for all of your hard work and dedication Jose. Thank you Sir.
Local FAQ
Commonly Asked about Thornton, CO
Everything you need to know before starting your basement project.
Do you pull permits with the City of Thornton, or do I need to?
We handle the full permitting process with the City of Thornton building department as part of every project — you won’t need to navigate it yourself.
My home in Original Thornton is a 1950s ranch — is the basement usually up to code?
Often not. Many of Thornton’s original ranch homes have framing, egress, and ceiling heights that predate current code. We assess and re-engineer those areas as part of any remodel.
Do you serve all of Thornton, or just certain neighborhoods?
We serve all of Thornton — Original Thornton, Eastlake, Signal Creek, Hunters Glen, Riverdale, and everywhere in between.
How quickly can you get to a job site in Thornton?
Thornton is one of our core service areas, so estimates and start dates here run on our normal timeline from our Littleton home base — usually within a few days for an initial estimate.
Does Thornton have the same soil issues as the rest of Denver?
Yes. Thornton sits on the same expansive Bentonite clay common across the Front Range, so floating wall framing and proper drainage are standard on every basement here, not an upsell.
