Chris Kirsch began as a carpenter’s apprentice in Telluride, Colorado in the late 90’s. Over the next 20 years he became the town’s go-to contractor for homeowners, designers and community managers. In 2020, he returned home to San Diego where he now applies his keen eye for detail to deliver the highest quality finishes.

His partner, Kindal, assists in multiple capacities from estimating and running errands, to marketing and design.

ADUs

Additional Dwelling Units create extra living space for family or guests, or can be used to generate rental income for years to come. Plus, they increase property value by adding usable square footage. We create versatile living areas such as a granny flat/in-law suite, pool-house, she-shed, or even a well-appointed game room. Choose one of ours, or bring your own.
