Nothing like innovation, quality, and service from one firm. In a world of mediocrity and mistrust, this combination is rare to find anymore. I can’t offer a stronger recommendation than Dream Weaver. If we build in the area in the future, you will surely be our first choice.

Chris & Lisa Tarr, 4319 Wildflower Court, Evergreen CO
Through the process, we found Dream Weaver Homes to be fair, honest and hard working - bottom line, they do what they say they will. They sweat the details and are prompt on follow-up.

Ron & Ruth Holm, 1361 Bross Court, Evergreen CO
We moved into our home in September, and couldn’t have been any happier with the finished product! My wife and I were extremely happy with Richard and the service he provided. He is reliable, trustworthy, and a man of his word.

Christopher J. Ainsworth, 1464 Belford Court, Evergreen CO
Not only has Richard been fair in his dealing with us prior., during and after our purchase, but also his followup has been remarkable. After living here exactly one year, the workmanship and quality throughout our home is above our expectations.

Dear Richard,
My wife Lisa, my kids, and I have been living in our Dream Weaver home in Evergreen for two years now. The innovation and attention to detail in the design and floor plan of the home was refreshing two years ago when we first say and fell in love with the house. Two years later our home still provides a welcome invitation whenever I walk through the door.

It is both functional and beautiful and carries a design that will surely hold the home’s value for many years to come. Perhaps best of all. the quality is top notch. After two years we have had only minor maintenance required and Dream Weaver has been responsive to each and every call we have made. Nothing like innovation, quality, and service from one firm. In a world of mediocrity and mistrust this combination is rare to find anymore.
I can’t offer a stronger recommendation than Dream Weaver. If we build in the area in the future, you will surely be our first choice.

Thanks to you and your team.
Sincerely,

Dear Richard and Steve,
We want you both to know how happy we are with our new home on Belle Mont Trail in Conifer and how grateful we are for the whole experience in working with both of you over the past year,
Richard, you were with us right from the beginning when we made our choice of the property here in Conifer. You advised us every step of the way for the feasibility of building on the property to handing us the keys to the finished product. You came up with many ideas we never would have thought of that made this truly a beautiful house. This could have been a tortuous process since we were living 900 miles away in Arizona as the house was being built, but you made it a pleasure.


Steve, as the project manager we quickly became aware of your amazing attention to detail as well as your ability to reach the hundreds of decisions needed to create the great house we’re living in now. You also demonstrated incredible patience with all our questions and changes.

We have lived in five new homes, but this experience was completely different from any other. The other homes were done by builders and construction companies. We feel this one was built by our friends, even though we had not met either one of you prior to buying the land. On our four week-long visits up to Colorado during construction, you both spent every minute with us guiding us through the selection process of every tile, window, door and fixture. Your organization and care made the whole project manageable, even though we were in another state.

We whole-heartedly recommend Dream weaver homes to anyone who wants to build a quality home in this area (or anywhere you are building). We can confidently say that the experience will be a good one and that the home will be outstanding. We would be happy to talk to any prospective Dream Weaver Homes customer.

Thank you for a great home.

To Whom It May Concern:

Richard Hansen and Dream Weaver Homes completed a high-end remodel of our kitchen in 1998 and then a remodel of our entire home in 200 and we could not be more pleased.
From the very start, Richard assumed ownership of this effort and his commitment did not end until everything was complete and to our satisfaction. His excellent follow-up, reliability, trustworthiness, and expertise allowed us to relax and let him do what he does best. The workmanship and quality in all the rooms of tour home is outstanding, and the end result is beyond our original expectations.
We were also very pleased with all the subcontractors that Richard brought into the job. He obviously has a network of highly skilled professionals who showed up when they said they would and did excellent work.
We highly recommend Richard for any of your building needs whether it’ an addition, remodel or new home. We know with 100% certainty if we ever decide to build in Evergreen, Richard will have the job.

Sincerely,

During 2001, Dream Weaver Homes remodeled our home with a 2000 sq. ft. addition. This addition doubled the size of the original 1950’ house. This remodeling required all plumbing and wiring throughout the old house to be redone, and a new roof structure to cover the old house and the new addition.

We are so pleased and comfortable in our new home that we wish to recommend Dream Weaver Homes. We found the personnel working for Dream Weaver Homes to be very capable and reliable. Our job superintendent, Steve Nelson, was very responsive to any question or call and was very friendly and courteous. We feel he is a family friend. The sub-contractors, also, were very considerate, polite and courteous. There was no foul language used. Any trash that accumulated was hauled away.

Richard Hansen was always available and in charge. He would resolve any problem quickly. Our home is very well built, inside and out. The decks are very sturdy and attractive. Our home does not look like a “remodel.” It appears inside and out as one attractive unit.

We commend Richard for his crew and subcontractors. His carpenters, finishers, plumbers and heating personnel etc. were as thoughtful and considerate as though they were family members. This difficult project was made enjoyable because of the high quality of Dream Weaver Home's personnel. For anyone interested in Dream Weaver Homes, we will be happy to show our home.

Richard Hansen was a pleasure to work with. Dream Weaver Homes not only builds a beautiful, quality home but also makes the process fun and as stress-free as possible. We love our new home.

Richard and Steve are the best! I would refer anyone to Dream Weaver Homes

Dear Potential Builder,
In May of 1998 my wife and I decided to remodel our small starter home. To say that it was a fixer-upper would have been an understatement. The original structure apparently was a tool shed built in the 1930’. Many additions and improvements had been done over the next 60 years resulting in a large diversity of quality and appearance.

We contacted Richard Hansen of Dream Weaver Homes for construction advice and contracting on what was going to be a difficult job. Richard did and exceptional job of implementing our ideas and wants for our home. The floor plan he designed for us makes the best of the space available and flows very well. He made many timely suggestions creating a much more cost efficient end product. Richard spent many long evenings and weekends helping us get done on schedule saving us untold thousands of dollars.

Richard’ direction and skills made our home something to be extremely proud of. We highly recommend Dream Weaver Homes for any project you may be considering.

Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern:
My wife, Ruth, and I purchased a home from Richard Hansen (Dream Weaver Homes) in March of 1999. Our home is located in a small North Evergreen residential development called the Promontory at Soda Creek. We own the business shown on this letterhead. Home On The Range is a furniture showroom and interior design studio located in the Elk Bridge Center, just across the Evergreen Parkway from the Promontory.

Close proximity was certainly a factor in our purchase decision, but quality, workmanship and our working relationship with the builder were equally important. Our home was about 60% completed when we he happened upon the for sale sign at the end of the driveway. Upon our first visit, it only took fifteen minutes before we knew that we’d found the right home.

We loved the layout and the signature Dream Weaver features such as the large walk-in closets and spacious, airy living areas. Getting in at the 60% completion point allowed us the luxury of choosing all finishes, rock work, flooring, tile, light and plumbing fixtures. We were even able to talk Richard into making several last minute design changes to suit our “mountain casual” decorating style.

Through the process, we found Richard to be fair, honest and hardworking. Bottom line, he does what he says he will do. He sweats the details, and is prompt when it comes to follow-up.
We’ve owned our home for nearly two years, and I’m happy to say, we haven’t experienced any significant problems. All minor adjustments and repairs after move-in were done promptly, to our satisfaction.

One intangible bonus is Richard’s sense of humor. He enjoys his job and the people he works with and for. When you have to work closely with a builder for weeks or possibly months at a time, a good sense of humor goes a long way.

Sincerely,
Ron & Ruth Holm, 1361 Bross Court, Evergreen CO

Dear Richard,
We wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how much we are enjoying our new home. Val and I spent several months looking for the perfect home. I can honestly tell you that the quality and value of your home far exceeds what was available in the market. Our new home is very functional as well as beautiful. The service we received after the sale was exceptional. We want to thank you for completing all of the additional work so promptly. Willingness to go the extra mile is a rare quality today. You have our recommendation. Be assured that we will have you build our next home. Please feel free to use us as a reference. You really do build dream homes! Thanks for building ours.

Sincerely yours,

Richard Hansen & Dream Weaver Homes recently completed a home remodel and deck addition for us. After some discussion of our ideas, Richard designed the two room additions, as well as a large deck (20-25 feet off the ground). We are very pleased with the completed project and would not hesitate to recommend Dream Weaver to friends for their building projects.

To Whom It May Concern:

We contracted with Richard Hansen as he was nearing completion of our current home. During the eleven years we have lived in Colorado, we have built two other homes, so as you can see, we are accustomed to working with builders.

Not only has Richard been fair in his dealing with us prior, during, and after our purchase, but also his follow-up has been remarkable. After living here exactly one year, the workmanship and quality throughout our home is above our expectations. During the months after we moved in, he was very visible to make sure everything was to our liking and functioning as expected.

We feel he is the most professional and caring builder we have encountered. We are planning to build another home as we near retirement, and Richard will be our first choice to build this retirement home for us. We can assure you that if you choose Richard as your builder, you will not be disappointed.

Dear Richard:
We have been remiss in not formally thanking you for a wonderful home building experience. Even through this letter is a bit late, it is most sincere.

Richard, you are without a doubt the BEST!! You are a stand-up guy, totally honest, and have always been more than fair in all of our dealings with you. This is a rarity in the Building Industry.
As you know, this was the second custom home we’ve built in Colorado. The first experience was an absolute nightmare! Even though we’ve heard similar horror stories from other folks, we can now confidently tell everyone that Richard Hansen is an exception!!!

Now that we’ve been in our home for several months, and the home you also built next door to us is compete it is quite clear you put a great deal of thought into where all the homes you built on Belford Court should be situated on their respective lots. You could not have done a better job in the placement of our home. We have the most privacy we could possibly have and thank you every day.

During the building process, you coordinated with the various subs to ensure their work was performed on a timely basis and at a high standard. Building a home is stressful for everyone, but thanks to your attention to detail, things moved along smoothly. Consequently, the construction of our home went well considering how busy everyone is in this booming market.
Your calming disposition and focus on end results parallels our approach to getting things done. We complemented each other. As an example, whenever a problem did arise, we mutually agreed upon the best possible solution and moved on . . . we were a great team.

We also appreciate the way you diligently resolved our various punch list items.
If you ever want us to chat with one of your prospective buyers, please don’t hesitate to have them call us.

Thanks again, Richard for always being there for us.

Future Dream Weaver Customer,
My wife and I decided to build a new home in 1999. After visiting many neighborhoods in the Evergreen area, my wife fell in love with the Promontory at Soda Creek. We toured several of the homes then for sale in the neighborhood, and were particularly impressed with the design of three homes under construction by Richard’s` company.

I preferred the large open rooms and efficient utilization of floor space the designs incorporated. My wife loved the contemporary mountain styling and high quality of interior amenities. We decided to have Richard build our home, because no other contractors could match the style and open floor plan of Dream Weaver designs.

Richard was involved in every aspect of building our home. We purchased our lot in the Promontory from him, used his architect, and even had him offer advice on the quality of finish materials. I feel the cooperation and assistance we shared resulted in the design and construction of the home we love and will live in for many years to come.

Ground was broken for our foundation in late January 2000. Progress was steady and on schedule, even though we had several snowstorms in February, March, and April. On occasion subcontractors became unavailable, but Richard was always able to find top-notch replacements that completed the highest quality of work. We were fortunate we were able to stay on schedule. 2000 was the peak year in Colorado for new home construction, and sub-contractors were in extremely high demand! Richard’ diligence and dedication resulted in our home staying on schedule and on budget!

We moved into our home in September, and couldn’t have been any happier with the finished product! As with any new home, we found a few (very few) items that needed to be fixed. Richard had each item replaced or repaired within a few days. We couldn’t have been happier. Our last home had punch list items, which had not been repaired nearly two years after it was built.

My wife and I were extremely happy with Richard and the service he provided. The overall experience was pleasant, and not nearly as stressful as our prior home construction. If my wife and I ever build another home in Colorado, and Richard is available for the job, we will definitely use him. I have already recommended Richard to several of my friends, and would highly recommend him to anyone interested in building a new home. He is reliable, trustworthy, and a man of his word.

Sincerely,
Christopher J. Ainsworth, 1464 Belford Court, Evergreen CO

Richard:
Chris and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the fantastic job you did building our home. We loved the floor plan, the workmanship was impeccable, and it has really been a pleasure to work with someone whose word is as good as a signed contract. We also appreciate all of the follow-up work that you did long after we moved in. It has been our experience that most builders disappear shortly after settlement.

So thank you for all you’ve done, and if you ever need a customer recommendation, please feel free to get in touch with us.

Sincerely,

Richard,
I wanted to mention that this was my first experience with a general contractor. Here is what I learned:
If you find someone who does what they promise, meet deadlines, stays in the cost objectives, and delivers a quality product; this is the only way to go. You did well.
Additionally, your crews were all exceptional, they along with your calming effect on us homeowners, truly came to work.

Thanks and Best Regards,

To Whom It May Concern:
We would like to recommend Richard Hansen of Dream Weaver Homes as your homebuilder. We moved from Copper Mountain, Colorado to Evergreen in October 1996. Being in the market for a home, we were looking at approximately 50 homes and the home we settled on far exceeds anything else we viewed.

Richard Hansen does a remarkable job with an eye toward quality building, i.e. foundation, construction, placement of the home on the property, and the finishing touches inside the home. Everyone who has been to our house has been very impressed with the quality seen in all areas of the home, inside and out.

Richard is also excellent with his follow-up of any items needing attention. Upon our moving in, Richard called us one or two times a month to see if anything needed repair. If something did need attention, he was always here within twenty-four hours to get the job done. We have never known another homebuilder who showed such a conscience effort and pride in his work and wanting his buyer to be satisfied.

We must add that there have been very few items that did need attention.
As a side note, although we love our home very much, we would like to be closer to I-70 due to a commute to Copper Mountain. We have asked Richard, without any hesitation, to keep in contact with any land being appropriate to our needs and have expressed serious interest in having him build a custom home for us.

Sincerely,
Alan and Nancy Roman, 137 Nuthatch Road, Evergreen CO

Dear Richard,
It is with love, gratitude, satisfaction and pride that I write this semi-formal letter of appreciation to you for building our beautiful new mountain home in Colorado, a dream which began shortly after you and Lynn moved to Evergreen a few years ago and which has finally come true for your mother and I, thanks to both of you. As we have told you so many times, there is no way either of us could be more pleased with how everything has turned out or be more proud of the kind of builder you have become.

Even if I am guilty of bragging about my own son, I feel apologies are unnecessary because the fact remains that the outstanding quality of workmanship in this home certainly speaks for both itself and you the builder without needing any additional help from me. Furthermore, I have no doubt that if you continue building to the same exacting standards you have set for yourself and with the same amount of uncommon attention to detail that it is easy for anyone to see in our home, you are going to soon enough earn and enjoy an industry reputation second to none in this community.

Finally, for whatever use this admittedly prejudiced, but honest opinion my be worth, we would be pleased and honored if you ever choose to show this letter and/or better yet, our home as “proof of the pudding,” to anyone who might be interested in contracting for your services. In addition, you know that will always be happy to talk candidly with anyone at any time about your, what you do and how well you did it for us.
Thanks again, son, for a job so well done and especially for adding that little extra personal touch to our bedroom which seems to make this lovely home just that much more special for us. Colorado summers with you and Lynn close by are also going to be kind of special to us, we happily hasten to add.

Love,
Dad, 180 Nuthatch Road, Evergreen CO

Evergreen, Colorado Homes

Dear Richard:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful home we purchased from your company. We are enjoying the home tremendously and continue to be impressed with the forethought in the placement of the home on the lot and the quality construction and attention to detail found throughout the home. Further, your attention to our needs during our ownership period demonstrates your commitment to your buyers.

If you should ever require a reference for future buyers of your properties, please feel free to call on us. Any of your prospective buyers should fee free to contact us for a tour of our house or to discuss our experience working with you.

Sincerely,
R. Zane Dennis, 174 Nuthatch Road, Evergreen CO

Evergreen, Colorado Homes

To Whom It May Concern:

I purchased and moved into a new home built by Richard Hansen in the summer of 1994. My entire experience in dealing with Richard was wholly positive. I can’t say enough about the way he handled both my special requests and upgrades, as well as the various subcontractors under his care. He was organized, communicative, and clearly in control throughout the project. My home was completed (including upgrades) earlier than scheduled, and to my total satisfaction.

I put an offer on the home just before framing was completed. I had a list of requested upgrades and changes that I worked through with him. He was professional, courteous, and punctual throughout the following few months. I traveled extensively on business during the building period and always felt comfortable that significant progress was being made during my absence. He always seemed to secure subcontractors who could handle my special requests. And in the few cases where a subcontractor did not follow through, he always found a way to complete the task at or better than specified.

I would not hesitate to recommend Richard for any residential building project. He is, in my opinion, capable of and suited towards organizing, recruiting, and completing any high quality construction project. He is my idea of an ideal residential builder, and I would comfortably recommend him for any custom home project, or any similar project where people with high expectations are buyers.
I would be happy to entertain any questions or discussions regarding my experience, and would be willing to open my home for inspection to those interested in reviewing the work performed here for their own edification.

Sincerely,
Edward J. Mance, 84 Nuthatch Road, Evergreen CO
