"This project seemed to move along effortlessly, and we have Matt to thank for that. He was incredibly easy to work with, truly one of the most professional builders I’ve ever collaborated with. I hope we get the chance to work together again."

One of the Most Professional Builders I’ve Worked With

Everyone understood why we were doing this kind of high-performance work, and then it was just a matter of figuring out the how together. That mindset of shared purpose and problem-solving is rare—and really powerful when you're tackling something as complex as a Passive House.

Greg F,  Architect

Working with Bauen Build felt like being on the same team.

"These are the kinds of technical details that can easily get missed, but Matt flagged it early and helped us get ahead of the issue. His attention to detail and proactive mindset made a big difference, especially as we were just getting started."

Dana, AVCRAFTERS (subcontractor)
