Testimonials

Mt. Element Construction completed our house 1 1/2 years ago. I have come to appreciate the expertise of the builder in knowing what and how to build a house in McCall. His knowledge of suitable building materials helped give us an economical and energy efficient home. We lived out of State during the construction, so open communication was crucial during the building and he provided that. I highly recommend Mt. Element Construction as your trusted builder.

As well as being efficient, Aspen’s Crews have always been polite and courteous. At no point have I felt unwelcome or uncomfortable whilst visiting the job sites. The fact that we have returned to working with Aspen so many times over the last 6 years is the clearest endorsement for his professionalism, care, and skill. – David Carey – Owner/Operator Hotel McCall and Jug Mountain Ranch

As a local Real Estate Broker, I have had the opportunity to refer Aspen Pulliam, with Mountain Element Construction several times – and have seen the quality of his construction and finishes! Knowing that we are in the mountains – snow country half of the year – his blend with nature as well as his build job to last in nature is so beautifully executed! Highly recommended McCall Builder.

Aspen built our custom home. He was integral to the entire project, not just the builder. He works well with clients and with architects and builds like a true craftsman. He also was cost conscious with our budget, working with us to identify area where we could save but still achieve our design goals. After construction was complete, Aspen has continued to follow up and ensure the quality met our standards. He has our highest trust and recommendation.

He takes a great deal of pride in his work, has an attitude of collaboration with the project team, inclusive of the architects, owners, and his subcontractors, and he is respected in the community. We highly recommend him to our clients and trust that he will be in good hands. – McCall Design & Planning

Aspen and his craftsman helpful us add about 300 feet to our cabin. The remodel touched all the important spaces in the house. We now have a much larger and more beautiful kitchen and all new bathrooms in the house. We had a wonderful experience with Aspen

I hired Mountain Element Construction to build a new cabin/house in Idaho. I have been extremely happy with the finished product. As, I my permanent residence is in another state, it was important to me to have excellent communication with the company owner and builder. He was very good to communicate with me through email, text, telephone and send regular photos of progress. We also had regular in-person meetings throughout the construction process.

Aspen Pulliam with Mountain Element Construction is an outstanding builder. We cannot imagine having selected a better contractor to build our “mountain modern” vacation home in McCall. Aspen completed our project in 2017, and our home is even more beautiful than we anticipated. Aspen took painstaking care to meet all of our needs, creating a true dream home.
