About Us

Steve Litchfield has been building and remodeling homes for over 20 years. After building homes as a framer and finish carpenter right out of high school, Steve decided to further his education in building by enrolling at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo’s School of Architecture and Environmental Design where he earned a BS in Construction Management. Steve then went to work for one of Santa Barbara County’s premier custom home builders, overseeing some of the company’s most challenging projects and honing his abilities for high-end building.

After 12 years as a project manager, Steve and his wife Tara founded Litchfield Builders in Santa Barbara County. Tara continues to run the accounting side of the business, while Steve is in the field. We offer hands-on custom craftsmanship for small projects and dependable contracting services for larger ones.

Through effective communication, strict attention to detail and a hands-on approach to building, we will ensure your project meets or exceeds your expectations.
