Craftsmanship from conceptual design to the completion of construction...
RUSS & PAM TURPIN
Owners and Custom Home Builders
With over 40 years’ experience in all aspects of the home designing and building process, Russ prides himself on being a results-oriented, hands-on construction design and development expert. His vast experience in construction includes everything from building homes in California as a licensed general contractor to building an underwater home in Hawaii.
As an integral part of the Custom Touch Builders, LLC team, Pam expertly manages the office. All aspects of the construction process are documented by Pam and she will work with each client to find innovative solutions in the Durango area for making sure the home building process is seamless. Pam is an avid animal lover and you will frequently find their two welsh Springer Spaniels, Maddie and Macie “helping out” at the office.
Having lived in Durango, CO for 25 years, Russ and his wife, Pam are proud to call this mountain town their home. Clients often describe Russ and Pam as “part of the family”. Their work ethic is simple: to communicate with everyone involved (be it clients, subcontractors, suppliers, or employees) with the highest standard of integrity and respect.
