Dustin and Paul joined forces in 2017 to start Active Design & Build, a remodeling company in Denver. They started the home renovation company because they are both passionate about construction and remodeling in particular.
But more than that, they combined Dustin's experience in the military and Paul's operational management experience to create a ground-breaking technology-forward construction process that yields exceptional quality at reasonable cost.After spending five years in the Navy with the elite special operation force, Seabee Engineer Reconnaissance Team (SERT), Dustin studied economics and finance at the University of Colorado at Denver.

Services
We are residential remodeling contractors serving the greater Denver area, proudly specializing in basement finishing, bathroom remodeling and kitchen design. Our team focuses on achieving synergy between our interior design team, production team and our skilled trade partners. In collaboration with our customers, we emphasize pre-planning and leverage cloud-based mobile applications for communication, project management and scheduling.
It isn't just about creating a great design. Design is just one element in the formula for a successful renovation. A well-planned and highly organized project will help ensure that timelines are kept and budgets are met. Instead of working in a world where multiple parties are involved in a project, we maintain responsibility throughout the process by providing a turnkey approach.
All successful home renovation projects start with a plan. New homes cannot be built without blue-prints, so why would a home remodeling or addition project be any different? A detailed set of plans describes exactly what is happening and when so that each person working in your home clearly understands their scope and expectations.
Active Design & Build of Denver, CO is composed of vetted and carefully selected team members who are deeply passionate about our home renovation mission. The result is precision planning that allows for the smooth execution of our custom interior designs. Active Design & Build focuses on building long standing relationships with our talented contractors and trade partners over the years.

ADB recently finished our basement. The job came in nearly on schedule, in spite of the difficulties due to the pandemic. The design team did a wonderful job figuring out what we wanted and making it happen. We are really pleased with the result. Excellent work and great communications with the Project Manager.

After interviewing a couple of companies, we decided to hire ADB because of their process, design, proposal, timeline, and general knowledge of projects like ours. Remodeling a house can be confusing and if your contractor is unorganized it can be a nightmare. We were happy with our decision. A couple of issues came up, but ADB handled it professionally & in a timely manner. Most importantly, we came in on budget. Thank you!

Active Design & Build did an excellent design and execution in our kitchen remodel which was a complete gut job to the studs with a new layout which now looks amazing, even refinished hardwood floors. I highly recommend them, I like the transparency of the process, costs, management of expectations, all the dust mitigation efforts, planned schedules and ultimately the fact that they are upstanding people who are accountable. ADB did a great job.

Active Design & Build recently completed our rear extension and we couldn't be happier. The job was completed on time and the only changes to the budget were ones made by us asking for additional work. Their team's communication with us throughout the build was excellent, keeping us up to date and answering our questions. All of the guys working on the project were professional and friendly and we appreciated that Active Design & Build had the full range of trades which created a turn-key solution for our project. I also appreciated that the budget included a cleaner at the end so we could move

I have been in the construction business for over thirty years. I learned everything there is to know about residential construction. In all that time I have never seen a company more dedicated. Not only do they insist on top notch quality and care for there clients they care about the trades they use. They also have a schedule you can set your watch to. Military precision. It's like being on a winning team. I am proud to say that I'm on that team. I work as a subcontractor and would recommend anyone to contact them. For whatever the reason. They are always looking for team members .
