Customer Reviews

Roberta Mullen

Little Home Builders, owned and operated by Christy and Bryan Silva, is an exceptional company. The Silva’s are highly professional and knowledgeable as well as kind and caring. They take good care of their customers through design, construction and final permits while consistently being willing to accommodate change requests with a smile. Their crews who labored to build my house were masters of their trade - skilled, proficient, competent, courteous and very easy to work with. I researched and interviewed other ADU builders, but only Little Home Builders offered the product that met my needs at a reasonable price. I absolutely love the ADU that was built for me and I feel blessed to have worked with Christy and Bryan in its completion. I would highly recommend Little Home Builders to anyone interested in building an ADU.

Bryan Morrow

We recently completed an ADU with Little Home Builder & were thoroughly impressed by their technical expertise & project management. As homeowners navigating Colorado’s complex zoning ordinances, we needed a partner who could provide a turn-key solution, handling the heavy lifting of design, plan development, permitting, construction, and inspections, all on an aggressive schedule & budget. The Little Home Builder team also ensured the new unit integrated perfectly with our primary residence. The build was completed on time with exceptional craftsmanship, from start to finish, the Silva’s team delivered. Their licensed general contractor & local trades team maintained a professional, eco-friendly job site & kept us informed via regular communication, including walkthroughs, calls, texts & virtual meetings. Having a 7-year structural warranty provides incredible peace of mind for our new investment. If you want a builder that bridges the gap between high-end and affordable housing, Little Home Builder is the premier choice in Colorado. We highly recommend Little Home Builder for their mission-driven approach & quality results.

I can’t rave enough about our experience working with Christy and Bryan. We were one of the first to take advantage of Denver’s new ADU permissions in the Barnum West neighborhood (building on the back of an existing lot with a 3-BR main house), and we were impressed with their high-quality work in progress in mid-December 2024. We began work together in January, and worked with an excellent architect and designer. Since we live a 6-hour drive away from Denver, our meetings were all virtual. The new-build process was new for me and my husband, and the LHB team was fantastic in guiding us through, step by step. When the build began in the summer of 2025, we received weekly videos showing the progress. LHB completed the project (the Ann 1BR) in 10 months— including about 5 months of permit work before the build. Bryan is truly impressive in managing his building team and creating a high-quality home. LBH in a nutshell: great communicators, flexible with our changes and needs, stunning results, really nice people. We are thrilled! Happy to chat with anyone who wants to speak with an LHB client.
