Carpentry Subcontractors. Important elements of Portfolio's ability to execute a custom home "as designed" are its strong relationships and "semi-exclusive" use of 1-2 carpentry subcontractors. At least one of these craftsmen is a former employee of The Portfolio Group.

Other Subcontractors. Like all custom home builders, Portfolio maintains a relationship with a number of subcontractors. We seek out the most professional and experienced subcontractors available in the Estes Valley and Colorado Front Range..
