Building in Avon
Avon sits at about 7,400 feet on the Eagle River in Eagle County, a few miles west of Vail on I-70 and at the foot of Beaver Creek Resort. The valley floor holds condominiums near the town core, and neighborhoods climb the hillsides above it.
Work here means remodels, additions, decks, and exterior replacements on homes and condos. Hillside lots bring steep access, engineered foundations, and wildfire exposure that shapes siding and decking choices.
Avon is also home to many of the people who work in the valley year-round, which means primary residences as well as second homes.

Avon remodeling questions
Do you work in Beaver Creek and Edwards too?
Yes. Those areas are unincorporated Eagle County, and permits go through the county rather than the Town of Avon. We confirm jurisdiction before pricing.
Can you build an addition on a steep Avon lot?
Yes. Steep lots need engineered foundations and careful staging, and we coordinate the structural engineering and design review.
Do you handle condo association approvals?
Yes. We prepare the scope, schedule, and insurance documents associations usually ask for, and we work within building rules on hours and access.
Where are you based?
Our office is in Loveland. We take projects in Avon and across the Eagle River valley with one project lead responsible for each job.
