Create the Home of Your Dreams in Boulder, Colorado

BOULDER HOME REMODELING -
DESIGN & BUILD EXPERTISE

Boulder Colorado – there are few places like it. Consistently named as one of the top cities in the US and overall best places to live, it's hard to beat Boulder when it comes to beauty, days of sunshine, and overall quality of life. Riddled with trails and bordered by the majestic Flatiron Mountains, it's easy to see why this Front Range town is an outdoor enthusiast's dream. Whether biking, hiking, rock climbing, or paddling down Boulder Creek, residents have year-round opportunities to enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds them.

Besides being known as one of the fittest cities, Boulder has plenty of other things to offer. For one, it has an impressive food and craft beer scene. Visitors and residents alike also enjoy strolling down the four-block-long pedestrian mall known as Pearl Street. There they can find quirky shops and upscale boutiques mixed in with bars, cafes, and restaurants of all types. For all of these reasons, Boulder has become one of the most desirable destinations in Colorado despite the staggering home prices.

If you're planning a move to Boulder, you'll likely buy an existing structure. That's because Boulder has a strict limit on new homes within the city limits. Because of this, and a limited supply, people often buy homes that they don't necessarily love and then make plans to renovate them sometime in the future.

Whether you're buying, building, or transforming an existing home, we can help you create your dream home within your dream city.

Looking to Make Boulder Your True Home?

Need a Home REmodel in Boulder?

Remodeling an older home or a recently acquired residence is exciting! Many people have a dream to reimagine the property in which they reside so that it’s a true reflection of their personal style and lifestyle. Unfortunately, it's easy to oversimplify the process, thinking you can create your dream home through a series of weekend DIY projects.

Remodeling a home takes an understanding of design and construction, as well as a thorough knowledge of the general real estate market. The goal should be to create a design that fits the house, as well as your needs, while also maintaining quality standards that will stand the test of time. Making smart decisions and doing things right “the first time” is essential for ensuring a successful remodel and a good return on your investment.

Home remodeling can get complicated very quickly. Even small projects have a lot of moving parts and many decisions that need to be made. Don’t get in over your head when your remodel turns into a monster project – let Forge & Bow Dwellings take care of the details for you!

We can help you overcome every obstacle and bring increased value to your property. We’ll work with you from start to finish, ensuring nothing is overlooked, from your initial vision to the project finale.

Boulder Weather

Everyone who relocates to Northern Colorado always wonders about the weather forecast. Will you be stuck in feet of snow most of the time? Those who have lived here know the weather will keep you on your toes – often changing drastically within the course of just a day. We like to say that if you don’t like the weather, just wait a few minutes and it’s likely to change!

The type of weather Boulder gets ranges from sunny days to thunderstorms to snow, and sometimes all three can happen is the same day. However, what most people love about Boulder weather is that they receive roughly 300 days of sunshine throughout the year. That means even in the middle of winter, it can get quite warm and when snow does fall, it doesn’t tend to stay for long.
