Constructive Builders was born from a vision to complete building projects in a more positive way. Eric Kottke founded the company to serve clients who share his appreciation for positivity, quality craftsmanship, great value and green practices.
More than just a project manager or a general contractor, Eric has 20 years of hands-on experience in all phases of construction, from foundation work to finish carpentry. His greatest satisfaction comes from seeing custom details come to life in an awesome finished product.
Eric began his career on a framing crew in Minneapolis. He then moved to Boulder, Colo. in 2001 and framed multi-unit apartments until he was hired for an apprenticeship under a veteran custom homebuilder working in the Colorado foothills. It was here that he worked for five years learning every phase of construction, eventually moving on to build his own custom 4,000+ square foot homes for clients. Eric returned to the Twin Cities with his family in 2010, eager to build a company on his home turf, focusing on customer satisfaction and projects both small and extensive. After 11 years of amazing projects in Minneapolis, the mountains called again and Eric relocated back to Colorado to continue the Constructive Builders mission just with a steeper backdrop.
In his free time, Eric enjoys hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and hanging out with his wife, two kids and his Aussie dog.
