Who we are:

Millikan/Lawler Builders is a partnership built on many years of construction experience and a lifelong friendship. We take on projects big and small, new construction and remodels, residential and commercial. Our employees and subcontractors are skilled craftsmen and excellent communicators. Together we build functional and intentional spaces, most often rooted in an aesthetic of simple, yet elegant design. We value durability, sustainability, and innovation in a rapidly changing environment.

Collaboration based on mutual respect is at the core of everything we do. It animates our relationships with clients, architects, engineers, subcontractors, building inspectors, employees, and neighbors impacted by our work. We work hard to establish the trust necessary for honest conversations, knowing that the best decisions arise from the respectful interchange between the various stakeholders in any given project.

What makes us stand out as a company is the joy that we try to bring to the work on a daily basis. We work beside the people we hire and together we have developed a culture where the challenges of the work become opportunities for collaborative and creative problem solving. That culture trickles down to the way we interact with our clients and the result is a process that feels good to everyone.
