Leadership

Colton began his professional career in product and furniture design, graduating from Kendall College of Art and Design. His experience in designing product aesthetics and user experiences formed the foundation of what would become Grant Buildworks.

Years of hands-on remodeling work as a carpenter followed, cultivating a deep appreciation for fine craftsmanship. He discovered a skill for finish carpentry, enjoying the challenge of balancing accuracy and efficiency. He witnessed first-hand the thousands of coordinated decisions required to transform an old home into a fresh, carefully considered space.

Working on dozens of homes ranging from near-new to over a century old instilled an on-going fascination with building science. How to build a durable, comfortable home is a question without a single answer; each project demands solutions tailored to its structure, climate, budget, and goals. Helping clients understand these tradeoffs and make informed decisions has become one of the most rewarding parts of his work.

Colton founded Grant Buildworks in 2023; built on a foundation of client experience, fine craftsmanship, and building science. He continues to lead and grow the business; collaborating with excellent trade partners and design professionals to bring client's projects to life.

Kind Words

  • We hired Grant Buildworks to turn our unfinished basement into two bedrooms, a bathroom and an entertainment room and we couldn’t be happier with the result. Colton did a great job managing the project throughout all stages from planning to completion. He brought our ideas to life and helped us make the best decisions to optimize our budget. He did a beautiful job completing our framing and trim, installing the floors and tile shower, and building shelves for our closets. He was extremely detail-oriented and ensured that even small flaws we overlooked were promptly addressed. He is talented, professional, and trustworthy. We will definitely be using him for all of our future projects! He is the best of the best!

  • Colton was amazing! He went above and beyond what I wanted. My main issue was mold. He investigated, figured out the problem and fixed it. His attention to detail is exquisite! Like he was never there. 100% will use his expertise again, and definitely recommend him. He’s honest and upfront with everything. Totally worth it, you’ll love him
