Company

Building from Experience

Russ and Tom Foote started working construction and learning to frame homes when they were teenagers. Fast forward nearly four decades and the brothers continue to lend their expertise as the leaders of Choice Built. The company was founded in 2012 when Russ, General Manger and Principal partnered with Lance Keller. Prior to joining Choice Built, Russ spent 18 years as the General Manager for a large framing company, running 42 crews. After joining Choice Built, Russ quickly brought Tom on board as General Superintendent.

Choice Built employs teams of professional carpenters and construction workers; many of them have worked with Russ for more than 20 years. The management team also has strong working relationships with subcontractors and vendors, which allows Choice Built to consistently deliver quality services. The teams’ knowledge, experience and talent set Choice Built apart from its competitors.
