Pioneer West Homes

Founded in 2004 by Nate Grabill, Pioneer West Homes is an award-winning custom home building company specializes in designing and building highly energy-efficient custom homes. Our philosophy is to build homes that are not only exceptional from a craftsmanship and design standpoint but also push the boundaries in energy efficient design. We were the first company in Southern Colorado to certify a LEED for Homes project as Gold and Platinum. As well, we are the only custom homebuilder in Southern Colorado to commit to building 100% of our homes to the strict Energy Star Version 3 Standards. Our design and build process allows our customers to build their unique ideas and specific needs into the home of their dreams. We specialize in many types of energy-efficient construction techniques including ICF (insulated concrete forms), foam insulation, solar thermal, solar electric and geo-thermal heating and cooling. We are proud to be a part of many great communities in Southern Colorado. We consider Southern Colorado our home territory and build homes in the following counties: El Paso, Pueblo, Cheyenne, Custer, Fremont, Huerfano, Kiowa, Kit Carson and Las Animas. We have proven ourselves as the leader in combining quality craftsmanship with innovative designs. For the past 8 years Pioneer West Homes has won many awards in the Pueblo Parade of Homes. In addition, we have been awarded the prestigious People's Choice Award for 8 consecutive years. The People's Choice Award is based on the votes of the people that tour the Pueblo Parade of Homes. In 2013 we entered our first home in the Colorado Springs Parade of Homes. We won 5 of the 7 industries awards in the $1,000,000 and over category. These awards were: Best Kitchen, Best Master Suite, Best Landscaping, Best Overall Home and the one we are most proud of; Best Craftsmanship! We are proud to be the leader in Southern Colorado in energy efficient home building. In 2009, Pioneer West Homes became the first builder in Pueblo County to join the U.S. Green Building Council and begin certifying homes to the LEED for Homes standard. In 2009, we became the first builder in Southern Colorado to certify a home to Gold LEED for Homes Standards.
