After years of traveling in the building industry and being away from his family, Tom Jurgens wanted to do something that would keep him closer to home to watch his kids grow up. “I had been in the industry for many years, I saw practices that I didn’t agree with, and I thought I could make a difference,” said Tom. “I made the decision to start my own company.”
Originally utilizing his relationships with subcontractors to meet the area’s needs, Raeco Builders soon evolved and grew into more employees with the ability to provide more self-performance in order to deliver the quality customers had come to expect. “All projects follow our proven process of Consultation , Design , Customer Approval , Manufacturing , Construction , and Completion ,” described Tom.

The entrepreneur launched Raeco Builders in Parker in 2009, which is named after his children, Raelin and Cole .
