Getting To Know Baker Builders
A Letter from the Owner
I started this business in 2005 as a sole proprietor. After getting married to my beautiful wife Jodi in 2006, the company has grown and evolved from a sole proprietorship to the family-owned business that is Baker Builders today. Over the last decade we have not only grown our business but grown our wonderful family as well with the addition of three bustling boys and a precious daughter.
I started in this industry at the young age of 10 years old working for a former baseball and football coach. My loyalty, along with his generosity and willingness to teach, allowed me to continue working with him until I was 23. Every weekend and every break from school, if I wasn’t playing sports, I was working on a construction site and loving every minute of it. Growing up working construction from such a young age helped me intimately learn every facet of the industry with a hands-on perspective that is immeasurable. After graduating high school, I was blessed enough to receive a scholarship to play baseball. I graduated college with a degree in Finance and Entrepreneurship. After graduation and a brief stint trying to pursue a professional baseball career, I went home and went to work building. After receiving my General B contractor’s license, my business was born.
I am constantly busy coaching my sons’ football and baseball teams or watching my daughter in Volleyball & Softball. I enjoy spending time outdoors, but my true passion is hunting, preferably with my bow or with my two labs chasing birds. In the summer, I love taking the family camping at Glendo Reservoir and relaxing on the lake.
My wife, Jodi, handles our marketing and helps with office responsibilities. She loves coaching our daughter in volleyball, and cheering on the boys in baseball, lacrosse, wrestling and football. Jodi loves to sew, scrapbook and be outdoors as well. Being on the lake, camping or anything up in the mountains with the family is a perfect way to relax.
We take the family-owned aspect of our business very seriously and our co-workers understand, above all, that they are family to us as well. We have some amazing people that have joined our team and help run this business. Please take a look at our staff page to learn more about the people we are proud to have in our Baker Builders family.
We approach our relationships with prospective clients the same way and welcome you to join our family too. We will always be here to make your dreams a reality.
Sincerely,
Dustin Baker
