About Us

Starting a building project can be overwhelming.

CLAA can make that process just a little easier with our Design- Build process and over 30 years of experience. We guarantee a space that is more than just up to code. We want to build a space you’re proud to be in every day. Whether it’s a residential home, commercial, healthcare facility or higher education, CLAA is here to do what’s best for the project.

We are located in Laramie Wy and do work all around the state and north Colorado. The process we use is proven to be 36% faster than the traditional design- bid- build process. Reach out to our team and let us create a great, long-lasting space together.
