About 361 Builders

361 Degrees is a construction management, consulting, and general contracting firm specializing in custom homes and commercial construction projects across the Colorado Front Range and I-70 corridor of the mountains.

Community Engagement and Sustainability

361 Degrees is actively involved in helping the communities we work in. We strive to employ local tradesmen for each project and are committed to best practices in sustainability through the construction process. We work closely with design teams to find cost-effective, sustainable solutions. Most importantly, we believe sustainability is most effectively met by first eliminating wasted time and inefficiencies in the planning and construction process. That’s why we believe in a high level of forward planning and a commitment to an ever-evolving process in the project management practice.

Our Logo and Name

We often get asked about our logo and name. The title of our company, 361 Degrees, is meant to reflect our commitment to a thorough and all-encompassing approach to project management and project execution in meeting client expectations. We aim to ensure that we have exceeded client expectations.

Our logo is the plumb bob, a tool that dates back thousands of years in the history of building, as far back as the ancient Egyptians. Used to ensure that two points are aligned with a true vertical line, it reflects our commitment, and history, of aligning client interests with project outcomes.

Todd Architecture LLC

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Billy Leggett on a variety of retail and office remodels since he began 361 Builders in 2012. It’s been remarkable to watch him transition his company from a small construction management company to a general contracting firm capable of significant local and regional projects.I can attest to Billy’s honesty, character, and attention to detail. He’s an excellent communicator who never fails to go above and beyond the expected. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Billy and his team to my clients in need of construction services."

Morning Story Restaurants

"361 Builders absolutely rocked the remodel of our restaurants.  We changed out flooring, banquets, painted walls, replaced lighting and took out and revamped half walls in the restaurant AND WE WERE ONLY CLOSED FOR A WEEK.  They brought to fruition the design that was created by a third-party and when faced with a challenge created smart and sleek solutions which added to the original design.  The 361 team are all-stars from top to bottom, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any construction project big or small."
