Our Process
The construction process can be daunting. To make the road
easier, we personally promise to help guide and advise you throughout the journey. Let's review ID Builders' 4-step methodology:
We start off with an initial discovery call, where we explain how we will deliver the best possible service to you and decide whether we're a good fit for each another.
In deciding to move forward we then utilize the latest onboarding construction management software to develop a rough schedule and budget for the project.
We then have multiple client meetings to understand the vision and how we're going to get to the finish line, where we will work closely with the architect, designer and/or homeowner to develop the project's Construction Management Plan.
We then get to work, turning the vision into reality. Quality control is always paramount in all aspects of the build-out process, checking and re-checking every aspect, every step of the way, ensuring that everyone involved is satisfied with the final product.
At ID Builders, we specialize in the construction of high-end new homes and remodels. With an in-depth knowledge of all aspects of the industry, we are able to more easily understand the desires and needs of our clients within all the different divisions of construction.
Having one of the few full in-house design-build teams in the Roaring Fork Valley gives us the ability to self-perform many aspects of construction so we can deliver our services quicker than our competition, while maintaining more competitive pricing.

Our Story
Having come from four generations in the construction industry, ID Builders founder Doug Olson has been familiar with high-end custom finish his entire life. After moving to the Roaring Fork Valley in 1994, Doug immediately founded Swedish Painting Company and over the course of the next 11 years worked with some of the top designers in the world in executing complex finishes on a host of custom home and commercial projects in the Aspen area. After building SPC into one of the largest custom painting companies in the State of Colorado, Doug sold the company in 2005 to become a full-time developer and general contractor.
The name ID Builders comes from Doug's philosophy that the design-build process should reflect the identity of the client. The types of windows selected, to the door and trim finishes, to the flooring, cabinetry, countertops, siding and stone materials chosen, should all capture the essence and character of the client.
Today, ID Builders is a close-knit and family-run business with 30 years of experience and expertise in the high-end construction industry in the Aspen area. With a deep understanding of all aspects of the design and construction process, Doug and his team are able to give advice and expertise during every stage of the build out, leaving no stone unturned. Doug will guarantee the job is done to the highest standards each step of the way.

Property Manager
“ID Builders is a GC that truly knows high-end custom finish. They are familiar with every division of the construction process, but they especially understand the finish side, what it takes to create a beautiful finished product. They are able to ascertain clients' precise specifications and can navigate the custom design world with ease. I highly recommend ID Builders to all of my clients seeking to carry out a remodel or new-build project.”
Owner, “At Home In Aspen”
“In choosing a General Contractor to do my "spec" building work in the Roaring Fork Valley, I need to make sure I hire someone who both does exceptional work and can stick to a budget. ID Builders accomplishes both. Their high attention to detail, as well as their ability to complete projects for a predetermined price, seem to be rare in today’s “all over the place” pandemic see-saw construction world. Working with ID Builders is refreshing and reassuring in this regard, and I hope to do several more projects with them in the near future.”
Developer
“I recommend ID Builders every chance I get because I know without a shadow of a doubt that they will perform excellent work in every instance, regardless of the level of detail or the intricacies of the trade work involved. Owner Doug Olson has been in the Valley for decades and reputation means everything to him, so he won’t quit until he knows that each client is satisfied with the project’s outcome. This gives each homeowner assurance and peace of mind that everything will be running smoothly and finished to the highest level of detail before the day is done. That’s what I call true accountability.”
