Fish Builders

At Fish Builders, we pride ourselves on being a unique fusion of old-world craftsmanship and new-school knowledge. Located in Salida, Colorado, we have been delivering residential and small commercial projects, as well as additions and structural modifications, for over a decade. We understand that no matter how small your building project is, it's a significant investment of both time and money. That's why we prioritize communication and professionalism in every project we undertake.

Our Story

Fish Builders was founded by Greg Follet, a seasoned builder with a passion for mountain living and a commitment to sustainable building practices. Greg's journey began in Wisconsin, where he worked construction jobs from an early age. His quest for adventure and continued education led him to Colorado State University, where he earned a degree in Construction Management in 1993. It was there that he met his wife, Stacy, and eventually settled in Salida, Colorado, where they're raising their two children and pursuing their passion for the mountains.

Our Philosophy

At Fish Builders, we believe that home building has forgotten the art of traditional craftsmanship. New home defects are at an all-time high, customer satisfaction is at an all-time low, and litigation is soaring. We believe that the key to building a better home is to combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology and sustainable practices. We prioritize durability, comfort, and the well-being of our clients and the environment.

Our Approach

We treat a home as a complete, integrated system, considering every material and its impact on the overall performance of the house. From insulation to energy-efficient systems, we strive to create homes that not only look beautiful but also function optimally. Our goal is to build homes that are durable, sustainable, and comfortable, while also promoting the health, safety, and well-being of our clients.
