ABOUT

Since its founding in 2006, Carlton Builders has been synonymous with excellence, professionalism, and drive for perfection—a standard set by our founder, Tim Mortimore. We do things the right way. Every time. 

We serve the Palouse area (chiefly Moscow, Idaho, and Pullman, Washington) but our projects have spanned from the Snake River to Lake Coeur d'Alene and everywhere in between.  

We love our work and are incredibly grateful for all the families and businesses that have entrusted us with bringing their visions to life.

Team

    TIM MORTIMORE - CEO

    Tim Mortimore started Carlton Builders in 2006, naming it after his home area of Oregon. Tim started his construction career in 1996 and finished his BS in Construction Management in 2006 from WSU. Beginning as a siding subcontractor, he steered Carlton Builder through various local projects from work on WSU campus to some of the most remarkable homes on the Palouse. Tim's drive for perfection in the details has facilitated Carlton Builders growth year after year to more complex projects.
