David's strengths are his detailed oriented and problem-solving nature, and he brings that quality to all of his projects. His cost estimates - comprehensive and informative tools for guiding decision making. His job management - well coordinated and thorough. No project can come off without a hitch somewhere - David works very hard to minimize these in advance by looking forward always. His style, demeanor, ability to communicate effectively and completely are exceptional. **★★★★★ — Paula Hansen, Feb. 2017** > David helped my husband and I with our basement remodel. We couldn't have been happier. David's ideas and attention to detail are invaluable. He is reliable, honest and fair. If you want a "job done right," hire Ellis construction. **★★★★★ — Tucker Humphrey, Feb. 2017** > We used David for a large remodeling project after the 2013 flood. David was professional and honest throughout the entire project. In addition, his ideas and problem solving added tremendous value. I would highly recommend him. **★★★★★ — Eiko Okura Interior Design & Feng Shui, Feb. 2017** > David Ellis is a gentleman who carries himself with grace of integrity and honesty. His vast experience and knowledge of the industry is priceless. He and his crew are the TRUE professionals you can trust and depend on, not only in good times, but especially in the times of creative problem solving are needed (such occasions arises often in construction projects). I highly recommend Ellis Construction for your project. You will be in good hands. **★★★★★ — Courtney Faust, Feb. 2017** > We hired Ellis Construction, Inc. for our "pop the top" project on a 1946 house and were very happy with the results. New windows, new floors, new walls, new second story with a bathroom and closet/book shelf built-ins. The project came in on time and on budget. Highly recommend David! **★★★★★ — Jane Fettig, Feb. 2017** > We had an amazingly successful and pleasant remodeling experience with David Ellis and his team.

David Ellis personally oversaw the job. He is as thorough and concerned as a professional can be, and his attention to detail, to budget and to design is unprecedented in my experience. The job was not one penny over budget, and was done in a meticulous and sensitive way.

We recently found a leak in the upstairs bathroom coming from behind the toilet and shower and have had to rip out the entire bathroom and remodel on the fly. A: It is Benjamin Moore's Revere Pewter HC-172 flat **Q: Sconces** *(in Photo Questions)* Could you tell me about the sconces? A: Troy Lighting is the manufacturer; Inlighten Studios in Boulder is a great resource for any lighting needs. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-13.*
