The Ranking

Our top 5 remodeling contractors in Denver

Remodeling in Denver usually starts with an older house. Much of the city is built from brick bungalows, Denver Squares, Victorians and mid-century ranches, many with unfinished or low-ceiling basements, original wiring and plumbing, and kitchens sized for a smaller household. Demand stays steady because buying a bigger home is expensive, so owners in neighborhoods from Barnum to Lincoln Park to Cherry Creek tend to renovate what they have. Basements, kitchens and bathrooms are the most common jobs, and additions and pop-tops are common on small lots. Two checks protect you. First, Colorado has no state general contractor licence. Denver licenses contractors itself through Community Planning and Development, and the city publishes a contractor licence search. Ask every company for its number and look it up before you sign. Electricians and plumbers are licensed separately by the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), so ask who holds those licences on your job. Second, most structural, electrical, plumbing and layout changes need a city permit. Ask who pulls it, whether that person is licensed, and whether the fee is in your quote. The five companies below range from a showroom-led kitchen and bath firm to design-build teams with in-house architects and an owner-led general contractor. Each profile notes what the company publishes about licensing and warranty, and what you should ask for. Several firms print no licence number on their sites, so do not skip the question.

Methodology

How we chose the best remodeling contractors in Denver

We searched Google Maps for home remodeling contractors, home remodeling companies, kitchen and bathroom remodelers, basement remodelers and design-build firms in Denver, CO. To be listed, a company needed a rating of 4.5 or higher from at least 50 Google reviews, an operational status, a working website, a real logo, at least four real photos and a staffed street address inside the city of Denver. We rejected handyman-first businesses, roofing and window companies, firms based in suburbs such as Federal Heights, Commerce City and Arvada, shared-suite or mailbox style addresses, sites that contradicted themselves, and companies whose websites we could not verify. Companies are listed in the order Google returned them across those searches; B&B Design Build, FBC Remodel and Factor Design Build came from the basement and design-build searches. Ratings and review counts were read on October 31, 2026. No company paid for a place on this list, and we did not verify licence numbers ourselves, so check them with the City and County of Denver.

Hiring

How to choose a remodeling contractor in Denver

  1. Verify insurance and credentials

    Ask for a current certificate of insurance and confirm registration or licensing with the authority that issues it, not with the company.

  2. Ask for a written estimate

    Scope, materials, removal, disposal and who pulls the permit should all be named on the page rather than agreed on the doorstep.

  3. Compare multiple quotes

    Two or three bids on the same scope. A number far below the others usually means something has been left out of it.

  4. Understand the warranty

    Separate the manufacturer's warranty on materials from the company's own warranty on the work, and get both in writing.

  5. Ask who performs the work

    Find out whether the crew are employees or subcontractors, and who supervises them on the day.

  6. Check recent local projects

    Ask for addresses or photographs of comparable jobs finished nearby in the last year or two.

  7. Avoid high-pressure sales

    A discount that expires today, or a knock on the door after a storm, is a reason to slow down rather than sign.

  8. Get everything in writing

    Change orders, timeline and payment schedule included, before the first payment changes hands.

FAQ

Remodeling companies in Denver FAQs

How do I check a Denver remodeling contractor's licence?

Colorado has no state general contractor licence, so the check happens locally. Ask the contractor for its City and County of Denver contractor licence number and look it up in the city's contractor licence search, run by Community Planning and Development. Confirm the business name matches your contract. Electricians and plumbers are licensed by the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), so ask for those licence numbers too. Get everything in writing before you pay a deposit.

How much does a home remodel cost in Denver?

Prices vary widely with room size, layout changes, finishes and the age of the house, so the honest answer is to collect at least three written quotes for the same scope. Basements that need dig-downs, kitchens that move plumbing and older homes with surprise wiring cost more. Ask each company what is included, how change orders are priced, whether permit fees are in the quote and whether design fees are separate. Several firms on this list offer free or complimentary consultations.

Do I need a permit to remodel in Denver?

Most remodels that change structure, plumbing, electrical or layout need a permit from the City and County of Denver, and additions always do. Cosmetic work such as paint or flooring usually does not. Ask your contractor who pulls the permit, confirm that person is licensed, and make sure the fee and inspections are in your quote. Factor Design Build on this list publishes Denver permit guides on its website.
