A Valley Carpentry Crew With the Owner on Every Job
Six years of framing, finishing, and remodeling homes from Aspen to Rifle, now under our own name. Written estimates, kept schedules, and work we're proud to sign.
Built on six years of valley jobsites
Ivan Pena spent six years on construction sites across the Roaring Fork Valley before putting his own name on the truck. He framed new homes in Basalt and Carbondale, hung and finished drywall in Aspen remodels, set floors and trim in Glenwood Springs, and built the decks, fences, and pergolas that let people actually live outside in a mountain summer. Ivans Construction LLC is that experience, organized into a company.
We still work as a subcontractor for builders who need a framing or finish crew they can trust to show up, and we work directly with homeowners who want one accountable person from estimate to walkthrough. The approach is the same either way: a written scope, materials staged before the first cut, and the owner on site instead of on the phone.
Mountain building is its own discipline. Snow loads, freeze-thaw cycles, intense UV at 7,000 feet, and a building season that ends when the passes close all change how you frame, flash, fasten, and finish. We build for those conditions because we live in them, and because we'd rather do it right once than come back to redo it.
What we stand for
Six standards we hold ourselves to on every project — big or small.
Do the Whole Job
Frame it, finish it, and clean up. No half-done handoffs.
Straight Answers
Itemized estimates, honest timelines, no surprises on the invoice.
Built for Altitude
Snow, sun, and freeze-thaw shape every detail we set.
Show Up
On the day, at the time, for as long as the job needs.
Details Matter
Tight miters, flat floors, clean lines, square corners.
Respect the Home
Protected floors, contained dust, and a tidy site every night.
A better service experience, by design
Generic promises are easy. We focus on the habits that actually make the difference.
