Optimizing the urban footprint of Boulder, Constructive Alternatives specializes in space-saving and high-impact general contractors projects for city dwellers. This team brings an ICC Class A (Building Unlimited) general contractor license, demonstrating decades of proficiency honed since the 1990s. Initially redirecting their experience from high-rise and iconic commercial construction, including Denver’s 30-story Tabor Center and the Empower Retirement Triple Towers, they established a focus on award-winning, eclectic, green-built homes and ranches.
Known throughout the region for reliability, the firm prioritizes combining superior high-performance building envelopes with advanced renewable systems. They emphasize sustainably-sourced products, utilizing insulated concrete forms and cross-laminated timber to create high R-value, exceptionally strong structures. The team expertly integrates geothermal and solar thermal hydronic heating, smart home technology, and HRV/ERV air handlers to ensure healthy indoor environments. For complex projects across the Boulder community, including earth-sheltered dwellings and remote commercial sites, they design and install renewable power systems—solar PV, wind, and micro-hydro—complete with battery backup for true off-grid operation. This mastery of specialized construction offers the expertise that homeowners deserve.
