Whole home renovations, basement finishing, kitchen and bathroom remodels, home additions, and new builds across Lafayette and Boulder County.
A ground-up container cabin, taken from foundation through final finish. Steel structure, custom cladding, and a full interior build out. Permitted, engineered, and built to code.
As a licensed general contractor, Torres Sustainable Builders manages the full range of residential construction across Lafayette and Boulder County. Scope decides how a project runs, and knowing where yours sits before anything gets priced is the difference between a schedule that holds and one that does not.
A general contractor manages your whole project. Design, permits, materials, scheduling, the build, and the final walkthrough. We coordinate the architects, engineers, and trades so you deal with one team instead of ten.
You need one when a project touches more than one trade, needs a permit, or changes the structure of the home. A basement finish with an egress window cut into the foundation. A remodel that moves plumbing or a load-bearing wall. An older home where the plan changes mid-project once the walls open up.
Scope stays contained when the work touches one trade, needs no permit, and changes nothing structural. A fixture swapped in place. Drywall patched over sound framing. The moment a second trade gets involved, or a wall or a permit enters the picture, the job needs coordinating. Tell us what you are looking at and we will tell you which one it is.
Most remodels, additions, basement finishes, and new builds require a permit. We handle the submission and see it through approval before construction starts. Review times are set by the city, not by us, and they vary from one jurisdiction to the next.

When the whole house needs work, not just one room. We open up main levels, remove load-bearing walls and set the structural beam the span requires, relocate plumbing between floors, and bring dated homes up to how families actually live now. Architects and engineers come in as the structure demands.

We build custom homes and accessory dwelling units across Lafayette and Boulder County. Site work, foundation, framing, and every finish trade run under one contract. Permitted, engineered, and built to code from the ground up.

We handle Lafayette kitchen remodels from layout through final finish. Cabinetry, countertops, lighting, and appliances are coordinated by one team so the trades are not tripping over each other. If the plan moves a wall or relocates plumbing, we pull the permit and bring in the engineer the work requires.

A bathroom touches plumbing, electrical, tile, and finish work all at once, usually in the smallest room in the house. We sequence every trade and build to code so nothing has to be opened back up later. From a single guest bath to a full primary suite, we handle Lafayette bathrooms start to finish.
View Service »Every project runs the same way, so you always know what happens next.
We define your goals and budget. We inspect the space before anything is quoted.
Floor plan and finishes come together. Architects and engineers join when the structure requires it.
We submit to the city and wait for approval. Nothing gets built until it is approved.
Materials are ordered and the site is set up. We protect the areas we are not working on.
Construction starts and runs straight through to completion. We keep you updated as it moves.
We walk the finished space together. Minor issues get fixed and every system gets tested.
We clean thoroughly before handing the space back to you.
Most of our clients come to us after a bad experience with another contractor. That shapes how we work.
Torres Sustainable Builders is a family owned general contractor based in Lafayette. Over 300 projects completed in 24 years in the trade.
We hold a Class B General Building Contractor license, which covers residential structures from basement finishes through ground-up new construction. We specify materials to suit the project rather than defaulting to whatever is quickest, and when a plan changes the structure we bring in the architect and engineer the work requires.
Every project runs the same disciplined way. We define your goals and budget, draw the plan, and help you choose finishes. We submit to the city and wait for the permit, because nothing gets built until it is approved. We protect the parts of your home we are not working on, complete the build, then walk a punch list together, test every system, and deep clean before we hand it back.
We are not the cheapest builder in the area, and we do not try to be. We take on a limited number of projects at a time so each one gets real attention.
