Your Guide to Building a Home in Denver with 303 Construction
Building a custom home is an exciting journey, but it requires careful planning, expert execution, and a reliable team. At 303 Construction, we specialize in residential construction in Denver, helping homeowners bring their vision to life. Whether you’re building a luxury home, a starter home, or a multi-family property, here’s what to expect in the home construction process.
Step 1: Planning & Budgeting
Before breaking ground, the first step is to create a detailed plan and budget. Key considerations include:
- Lot selection – Choosing a site with proper zoning, utilities, and accessibility.
- Home design – Working with an architect or choosing a pre-designed floor plan.
- Budgeting – Factoring in land costs, permits, materials, labor, and contingencies.
At 303 Construction, we provide cost estimates and guide you through the budgeting process to ensure your project stays on track.
Step 2: Obtaining Permits & Approvals
Denver has strict building regulations, so securing the necessary permits and approvals is crucial. Our team at 303 Construction handles all permit applications, ensuring compliance with Denver building codes and zoning laws.
Step 3: Site Preparation & Foundation
Once permits are in place, we prepare the site by clearing debris, leveling the ground, and setting up utilities. Then, we pour the foundation, whether it’s a slab, crawl space, or full basement. A strong foundation is key to the home’s longevity, and we use high-quality concrete and reinforcement techniques to prevent future issues.
Step 4: Framing & Structural Work
The home’s framework is built next, including:
- Walls, floors, and roof trusses
- Windows and doors installation
- Structural reinforcements for durability
Framing provides the home’s shape, and 303 Construction ensures precision to prevent long-term issues like warping or misalignment.
Step 5: Electrical, Plumbing & HVAC Installation
After framing, we install the home’s mechanical systems, including:
- Plumbing (pipes, fixtures, drainage)
- Electrical wiring and panel installation
- HVAC systems for heating and cooling
303 Construction partners with licensed specialists to ensure everything meets Denver’s safety codes.
Step 6: Interior & Exterior Finishes
Now, we add finishing touches that bring the home to life:
- Drywall, painting, and trim work
- Flooring (hardwood, tile, carpet, etc.)
- Kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, countertops, and appliances
- Exterior siding, stucco, or brick
Step 7: Final Inspections & Move-In
The last step is a final inspection to ensure everything meets Denver’s residential construction standards. After approval, your home is ready for move-in!
