“I couldn’t have asked for a better team. I would work with RA Nelson over and over again, for sure.”
Colleen Weiss, CEO, East West Hospitality
"The project management team worked tirelessly with the owner, architect, engineers and other key partners to bring this project to fruition. Their professionalism, communication, and delivery went above and beyond our expectations. We could not be happier with the final product – our BrightHouse! We are truly honored to be able to provide such a beautiful and well-constructed building for our clients to use and for our community to have access to. RA Nelson is definitely the builder you want – the years of experience show – they are still thriving for a reason!"
Sheri Mintz, CEO, Bright Future Foundation
"After the completion of our first three buildings in 2011, we continued to work with RA Nelson on the remainder of our campus for two main reasons: the trustworthiness and integrity of their staff, and the overall quality of service and construction we received. Indeed, our beautiful LEED Platinum Campus has become an important educational and cultural resource in our community and RA Nelson made certain it will stand the test of time."
Markian Feduschak, President, Walking Mountains Science Center

"RA Nelson was the General Contractor throughout the three phases of construction of our campus, in total six buildings, and we could not be more pleased with our working relationship with their team and the quality of the construction of all our buildings. We hired RA Nelson early on in our design process to inform pricing and it proved to be beneficial to take full advantage of their well-organized preconstruction services to manage our project budget. Their high level of organization carried through to construction, building completion, and the move in and warranty period. When we first opened the doors of our campus, the highest compliment we received was that the buildings had exceeded the expectations of our board and staff."
Markian Feduschak, President, Walking Mountains Science Center
"I wanted to mention what an outstanding job the project team has done at Burlingame. I have been in the hospitality industry for years and it's great to see customer service extending into construction services as well. The team has been tremendous in assisting getting us settled in our new home by accommodating or correcting any minor issue we have encountered... I wanted to extend my gratitude for everyone's dedication to the Burlingame project."
Burlingame Owner
"I can only image the early season winter conditions that moved in suddenly in the early stages of construction would have likely hampered some of the process. I would have been really concerned had I not been a part of the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater Phase 2 and saw firsthand how R.A. Nelson dealt with winter work and were able to complete the effort. It was truly remarkable, and I have great respect and appreciation with how the whole team pulled together."
Pedro Campos, Zehren & Associates
"Thanks again for your staff's hard work, competence, and good attitudes throughout the Hideout's construction. It is a pleasure working with you and your team and I am proud of the projects we've done together. It is a gratefully and well-received building by all who frequent it. Hat's off to everyone at R.A. Nelson."
Vice President of Aspen Skiing Company
I was most impressed with the buy-in from the team to get the work done. It was a tight schedule... A lot of people worked awfully hard - more than what they signed up for - but this couldn't have been done any other way. The entire team is to acknowledged for that.
Johannes Faessler
“RA Nelson has proven to be a very professional, transparent and enjoyable contractor to work with; three very important qualities in my book to building lasting relationships”
Steve Habaradas, Cumming Senior Director
"The quality control and final product were exceptional. Follow up energy metering has shown the facility to consume 64% less energy than a comparable building. We are convinced this was achieved in large part due to RA Nelson’s diligence, team approach, and relentless efforts to ensure that the facility was built to the highest standards."
Steve Russell, Executive Director, Western Eagle County Metropolitan Recreation District (Mountain Rec)
"On Friday we did the punch walk on the last Westin condo... the architect said that this and the other two condos created the smallest punch list he has had in his experience. Congratulations."
Jim Adams, East West Partners

We wanted a library that would fit into the small town character of our community. We wanted it to be functional and beautiful and fit within our budget. Our Team that included R.A. Nelson helped us achieve that goal. That created a library we could be proud of. Thank you R.A. Nelson!
