Basement Remodel

Tim Dooley
Owner/Estimator

I’m a University of Colorado Engineering School graduate that raised two great kids here in Colorado. My 30 year career in the plan, design and build domain has given me the opportunity to collaborate with amazing people from all walks of life on a variety of projects around the world – it has been a blessing. When not working, I try to spend as much time as possible with family and friends enjoying all that Colorado has to offer.

Russel Wise
Owner /Operations

Russel Wise has been living in Boulder County for 30 years. He decided to call Colorado home in 1992 and has never looked back. He has worked in the construction industry off and on since 1989. He quickly fell in love with transforming unused or under appreciated parts of the home into warm, comforting living spaces. His eye to detail is second to none. Russel is a clear communicator who truly enjoys interacting with clients and making their dreams become reality.

Russel is a dedicated father to four amazing young men. Raising four boys has only made his dedication to life, passions and creating the strongest it has ever been. He loves being a father.

Russel loves to take in all that Colorado has to offer. He and his boys can be found hiking, snowboarding, biking and camping through all seasons. Russel also enjoys playing guitar and singing with friends. As well, he likes to build guitars from scratch in his home workshop. He started his luthier journey as a passion project and has been creating fine six string acoustic guitars that many consider art since early 2018.
