“Don't look any further for a quality builder! Derek Best and his AMAZING team at Best Custom Homes built our dream home while we were long distance and were able to keep us sane with regular communication and photos of progress. Kudos to Justin & Scott! We are also grateful these wonderful people will be our future neighbors!!!” ~ Ruth M.

“I’ve done a lot of remodels and extensions and at the end of each of those projects I never wanted to see or talk to my contractor again. They were so disappointing. SUCH A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE WITH BEST CUSTOM HOMES! I will be forever grateful. We just came from the house. IT’S SO AWESOME! Kids and I couldn’t be happier and more excited - not just because we are tired of moving, but because this house is so COOL! Every room is better than we imagined it would be. Every room! Thank you so much for all of your advice along the way. You have a gem in Justin! Best Project Manager ever - don’t let him go anywhere!” ~ Jessie S.

“Nothing but positive comments about Best Custom Homes. Derek and his crew build top quality homes. Knowledgeable about building in the mountains and has an awesome attention to detail. Probably the thing I liked the most about working with Derek was that I never felt like he was trying to scam money from me. Very upfront about what costs would be and was willing to work with me on solutions to still get some of the “must haves” in our home. Honest and professional.” ~ Alex E.

“We have had a wonderful experience so far with extensive home renovations. The Best Team communicates well and has involved and managed a great group of independent contractors. We expected the project to take about a year and seem to be on course with a few months of work to go. Highly recommend!” ~ Art W.

“We are doing a remodel of our existing concrete deck because we have had water damage over the years due to improper waterproofing under the concrete. Danny Woods is overseeing our project for Best Customs Homes and we have been thrilled with his management skills every step of the way! As portions of the concrete covered deck have come down, we have realized the extent of the water damage to the structural wood frame. Danny and Best Custom Homes have responded with excellent problem solving skills and attention to detail. Their subcontractors working the project for them are very respectful and do great work. Danny is extremely quick to respond to all questions and find answers and quotes when we ask. We trust his judgement and have even trusted him with a key to our home for quick access if we are unavailable. We are pleased that our structural engineer recommended Best Customs Homes as a trustworthy and reliable builder to help us with our project and we will not hesitate to use them again in the future!” ~ Melissa B.

“Derek and his team at Best Custom Homes have been invaluable. Always willing to support us throughout the project with any questions or concerns we may have had. Even if they were outside of the scope of our specific project. The attention to details and transparency on the original budget were of the utmost importance to us, but the attention to perfection and creative input on the designs and build were what really set his team apart.” ~ Matt D.

“Danny's involvement has been critical to our happiness and the project(s)'s success. I've really appreciated your communication and attention to detail and quality, and to doing and getting things right. I've valued, and the home has benefited, from your judgment and experience, and from your willingness to offer alternative ideas and your opinions to guide us, or prevent us from making mistakes.
I've also really appreciated your patience, as well as your balance of making us happy and, when necessary, setting a boundary and communicating what can't be done or what would be unreasonable to do or expect, always professionally. You communicated well and we always ended on the same page one way or the other.” ~ Tre F.

“Derek Best, owner of Best Custom Homes, was referred to Centre Sky Architecture firm by another builder for a custom home project of ours in Evergreen, CO. Right from the beginning Derek and his team were amazing to work with. Their good communication, timeliness with deadlines, and being very competent has made this project go very smooth so far. The couple that we are designing the home for could not be happier with their General Contractor selection. We look forward to working with Best Custom Homes on future projects! Thank you for all of your hard work.” ~ Centre Sky Architecture Ltd

“The team at Best Custom Homes has helped me with two remodels on our personal residence and a complete home build in Winter Park. Each experience was professional and the job was done properly. Furthermore, they stick behind their work if there is a problem. The complete home build in Winter Park was done during the pandemic, a challenging time to say the least. They got us across the finish line despite numerous obstacles. Excellent team and an amazing owner. Derek is personable, courteous and a pleasure to work with.” ~ Ernie C.

“Best has done an amazing job wrangling and completing this remodel! Our thanks goes out to you, Justin, and the whole Best team. Thank you again, Derek! It’s been great working with you.” ~ Omar P.

“Best Custom Homes built our home in Evergreen on time and UNDER budget in 2019. We began the process while living in Florida, and at the time the idea of choosing a builder from a distance was stressful, but Derek was awesome from the beginning. We talked with several local builders and one in Denver, and the bid from BCH was the most comprehensive as it included real bids from subcontractors in detailed categories, rather than general buckets based on estimates that we received from other contractors. The first bids that came back with all of our wishes were over budget and we had to scale back a bit, and Derek was the first contractor to get us a bid within budget. Given that, the details his bid provided, and his approachable, honest personality we chose to go with BCH, and we are so happy we did! Building a home is a stressful process even in the best of circumstances and it's imperative to have a good contractor.” ~ Cody S.

“We have partnered with Best Custom Homes to assist their clients with flooring for nearly two years. I really have to say how refreshing it is to work with a team of absolute professionals with a level of perfectionism you don't often see in this industry. Their communication is top notch, their attention to detail is second to none and every member of the team has been an absolute gem to work with!” ~ Britt S.

“I had the pleasure of working with Derek here in Alaska for a couple of years before I retired. I was a superintendent for a custom builder in Anchorage and Derek was assigned to my project. It took a couple of weeks for me to realize that the company was wasting a very valuable asset by not having Derek running projects on his own. I have followed Derek's progress and am not one bit surprised that he is where he is today! In my 40 years in the construction industry men with the dedication to quality combined with his level of integrity and honesty are what should make Derek a top choice for anyone considering a high end custom home. They just don't come any better in my opinion.” ~ David G.

“Working with Derek and team to build our home in Pine has been a great experience. His personal integrity and focus on quality service and delivery is reflected through his team and through the final product. His knowledge and experience of mountain building has been extremely valuable during our build. Every step in the process, is defined and openly communicated. He and his team have been very helpful to find solutions to ensure we work within budget and stay on time. They work hard to stay ahead of any possible issues and openly communicate them as well as potential solutions. We have been able to maintain the “must haves” as well as most of the “nice to haves”, despite the difficult economic times and escalating inflation (material and labor costs). The relationship he has with his suppliers and contractors is impressive and the quality of work product is outstanding. We are not local for the build, so having the daily logs (with updated pictures), cost, budget, and timeline updates has been invaluable. Lastly, we have never experienced such a clean build site, something we greatly appreciate! Overall, they have proven to be an open, honest, focused, professional and caring team to work with, and we are very happy we chose them.” ~ Shawn R.

“My experience with Best Custom Homes has been nothing short of extraordinary! From their impeccable craftsmanship to their valuable partnerships with esteemed trade professionals like Academy Roofing, they have set the gold standard for high-end custom home builders. If you're in search of a builder who prioritizes quality, integrity, and excellence, look no further than Best Custom Homes. They not only build homes; they create masterpieces that stand the test of time.” ~ Bobby L.

“Best Custom Homes is an organized builder who goes the extra mile for their clients. In this day and age, it can be difficult to find such a hardworking team who really care about their final product. We’ve worked in Denver’s luxury custom home scene for over 30 years and are honored to be an electrical partner of Best Custom Homes as they grow & continue to showcase their dedication, thoughtfulness, and knowledge in the beautiful homes that they build.” ~ Brant Electric

“Major Heating and Air Conditioning and Best Custom Homes have had an ongoing relationship for the past ten years. It’s always a pleasure to work with their professional and friendly staff on a daily basis. The most enjoyable part of working with Best is the attention to detail and the different variety of homes they build/remodel. If I was to build a new home, I would definitely have Derek and his team build it for me!” ~ Bob Major
