What’s Special About Us?
We don’t wait for problems to emerge; we anticipate them. Every home we build is truly one-of-a-kind, with custom designs and construction methods that demand extraordinary attention to detail. We proactively "problem-predict" by thoroughly reviewing plans, conducting precise quantity take-offs, and, when necessary, using 3D modeling to foresee potential issues before they arise—minimizing surprises, delays, and changes during construction.
We are passionate about the art and science of homebuilding, continuously expanding our knowledge to stay at the forefront of industry best practices. Our commitment to innovation allows us to deliver high-quality homes at the most attainable investment levels. With expertise in ENERGY STAR and Department of Energy Zero Energy Ready Homes programs—as well as accreditation as a Certified Passive House Tradesperson—we prioritize energy efficiency and sustainability. Collaboration is at the heart of our process, working closely with clients, designers, and trade partners to maximize value and efficiency. Every recommendation we make is rooted in experience and a deep understanding of the expected outcome. We believe in fostering a strong, supportive industry by openly sharing both our successes and challenges, seeing colleagues as allies rather than competitors.
By deliberately keeping our business small, we provide a highly personalized experience, ensuring each project is guided by our client’s values and vision. Our success is defined by strong client relationships and exceptional project outcomes. Without the complexities of a large firm—such as excessive overhead, communication breakdowns, or management hand-offs—we’re better able to serve our clients. This lean approach allows us to maximize value, advocate for our clients’ budgets, and be involved in every detail along the way.
Who We Are
Building has been a life-long pursuit. What started as designing and constructing skateboard ramps as a kid evolved into a lifelong pursuit of craftsmanship and innovation. In junior high, drafting, home design, and metal shop classes solidified Evan’s dream of becoming a builder, leading him to earn a Construction Management degree from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.
With over 150 homes built under his supervision, he has held key leadership roles, including Project Manager, Quality Assurance Director, and Operations Manager for top building companies in Colorado. Evan’s hands-on experience managing design-build operations has reinforced the importance of collaboration between architects, designers, estimators, and builders so the vision comes to life.
Duration Home Builders was founded in 2022 with a commitment to raising the standard of home construction and client satisfaction. By integrating science-based building practices, staying at the forefront of new products and technologies, and prioritizing quality craftsmanship, homes are built to withstand the test of time.
Guiding Principles:
Excellence – We hold ourselves to a high standard, and expect the same of others. We operate with a “forever a student” mindset, acknowledging that we can always learn and improve.
Collaboration – Nobody knows more than we all know together. We listen, share and communicate to promote the best outcomes. Knowledge is shared, not guarded.
Integrity – We are honest, transparent and respectful. We take responsibility for our words and actions, understanding their impact.
Intentionality – Our decisions are made purposefully, based on long-term functional, financial and environmental logic.
