L&D Construction

L&D completed our new garage and ADU just over a month ago on time and on budget. I still can’t believe what an amazing, seamless, transparent, and genuinely easy experience it was from start to finish. From our very first exploratory meeting to the final walkthrough, we felt as though we were working with trusted friends. From the start Dave, Sarah, Ryder and Clayton were casual, at ease, yet always professional, competent, and responsive. No matter what decisions had to be made or the inevitable changes and unforeseen challenges, it always felt like we were on the same team, working towards the same goal. They have such pride in their work and are so very helpful every step of the way. What’s more, they brought in the most talented assembly of subcontractors I could imagine. Every sub is clearly hand picked by L&D for top quality work and for alignment with L&D’s values. Every member of every team were true craftsmen in their field, be it plumbing, electrical, framing, drywall, tiling, painting, HVAC, you name it. Every sub was excellent. And holding it all together every day was the tag team of Ryder as onsite construction manager and Clayton as overall project manager. I really can’t say enough about our experience. It was so above and beyond our expectation for a general contractor. We are absolutely thrilled with the final product and couldn’t be happier about the experience. L&D are the experts at ADU’s. They know all the in and outs for every project phase better than anyone: from design to the navigating the labyrinth of city zoning and approvals, through to constructions and final inspection. It was seamless. Hire them. You will be delighted and amazed.

The L&D Construction team, David, Ryder, and Sarah worked with me to build an ADU (apartment over a 2 car garage) on my property in Denver. From start to finish they helped me plan and design, answering any questions I had along the way. Once construction started everything went very smooth. Any changes I needed to make were handled with an easy mobile platform and simple discussion with the guys. I am very happy with the ADU and have lived in it for about 6 months now, enabling me to rent out my main house. I highly recommend L&D!

Strongly recommend L&D for construction. They were professional, timely, thorough, and responsible. The entire project went more smoothly than we could have hoped, from start to finish, and if something's not right, they'll fix it. Really grateful we went with L&D.

It's been a year now since we hired David to do a remodel of our second garage into an office and workout room for myself. He was recommended to us from friends who were extremely happy with his work, and they weren't wrong. David (and Ryder) were both great communicators and up front about all decisions that needed to be made. The quality of the work was top notch and everything ended up just like we wanted it. A year later and I can say I'm still really happy with the project, and beyond that, David has stepped up in a really big way and taken care of a repair that technically occurred outside the warranty period. He stands by his work and his reputation and I really applaud that. I will never hesitate to recommend him for any project in the Denver area.

David Schultz of L & D Construction completed a major remodel for my husband and me after a clean water flood did extensive damage to our home. David was very hands on and did an excellent job being sure every detail was taken care of for us. We are both commercial brokers and had recommended David's services to several clients in the past with great results on their office remodeling projects. When the need arose we immediately thought of David. His easy going manner is deceiving, he always had everything running smoothly and makes every effort to keep you posted on the progress of your project. Our first floor as well as our basement had to be completely redone while we were still living in our two story house. The workmanship was excellent and thoughtfulness of his crews was very much appreciated. His crews are beyond competent, they are craftsmen and gentlemen. They made a tough personal situation much easier to live through. We recommend David and L & D highly and will hire them again as well as recommend them to our clients going forward.

When we were looking for someone to build our ADU I called one of L&D's clients. Before I even finished my question they said "Hire them!". We are so glad we did. They worked with the city and our architect to save us money on a better design. The city took forever on the permitting and without David it may have never been done. Ryder was always there to make sure everything was done right. He kept the crew focused and had great attention to detail. He and David had excellent advice on design, mechanical options, layout, and just about everything else. We always felt like they listened to our concerns and if we had an issue we knew that David, Sarah, or Ryder were going to get it solved. Their sub contractors were equally amazing. Several of them even told us how great it is working for David. Making changes was never a problem and if it wasn't a good idea they explained why. I was expecting a drawn out construction process with lots of delays. None of that happened. The construction was the least stressful part of our project. David kept the project on time with a very aggressive schedule. This company is honest and straightforward. If you're looking for cheap, these are not the guys. If you're looking for a good product, good workmanship, honesty and a good value, you can't go wrong. We've had so many compliments on our ADU and a big reason it turned out so nice was because of L&D.

Building an Accessory Dwelling Unit with L&D was a fantastic experience! We finished our ADU a month ago and couldn't be happier with our completed project. David, Sarah, Adam, & Clayton were detailed oriented, organized, client-focused, and made the building process easy from start to finish. Sarah did an excellent job with permitting and communicating with the City of Denver (something we were relieved to not manage ourselves). In addition to coordinating demolition permits, Water/Sewer/Gas/Electrical, and other red-tape, Sarah also helped us secure a rebate from Denver Water for changing out our Water Tap. Clayton helped us order materials and price-out selections based on preference and budget. Despite supply-chain delays during COVID, Clayton was able to ensure building materials arrived ontime and in good condition. David - President of L&D - worked with our architect to ensure plans translated from paper to reality. His team at SimpleHomes built our ADU inside their warehouse in North Denver, then erected the building in one-day (using a crane to move walls & joists from a flatbed truck into position on our foundation). It was reassuring to have David onsite to ensure the framing and the crane operation went smoothly. Adam, the Onsite Superintendent, is excellent at his job. We trusted Adam to ensure work would get done on schedule and within budget. Adam's communication, attention to detail, and work ethic are commendable. While other Superintendents might show-up occasionally to manage subcontractors, Adam was present nearly every day and kept us informed with progress reports and creative solutions. Overall, We highly recommend L&D and would gladly contract with them again. Our finished project is high-quality, well-constructed, and an excellent addition to our property.

We could not be happier with the process and final product from L & D Enterprises following our full basement remodel, including a bathroom, bedroom, build in cabinetry and a wet bar. David Schultz was transparent throughout the entire process from bid to completion. He conveyed expectations, pricing, overall process, and schedule clearly and openly. David took our project and thought about it as if it was his own home when presenting us with decisions and options. His team and his attention to detail and overall workmanship completely exceeded our expectations. We would recommend L & D Enterprises without reservation and will call on David again for future projects.
