About Us

Dear Friends:

We were founded in 1989 by Lynden Kunde. He was working for a General Contractor in Idaho Falls as an esteemed estimator. While there he recognized a demand for a contractor dedicated to quality. His aspirations for having this number one company were burning within and in that year he broke away and started the beginnings Pacific West Construction.

It started off like most, work was scarce and difficult. Though tough, our name grew quickly in the market and success was prominent. Since then, we have done over 200 million dollars worth of work, including hospitals, lodges, libraries, schools, churches, hotels, apartments and custom log homes. We worked hard, took care of our customers, provided the highest quality of work, and had fun.

While in the midst of doing these projects we started to receive offers to work on multi-million dollar resorts and homes. One that started it all for us was Flagg Ranch. This beautiful resort was just the start of our legacy as a custom builder. From then on our popularity grew into other parts of Wyoming and Idaho. This has allowed us to provide projects that exceeded all expectations.

Since these times we are still growing with work in all aspects of the construction industry. We have loved to see successful project complete from the custom residential home to a multifamily apartment complex. However, large or small, we approach each project with the same diligence. We love and demand quality for our customers. We consider ourselves to be an advocate for owners and architects to provide the best possible project at the best possible value. Please strive with us to provide this for all and our work here will never end.

Sincerely,

Pacific West Construction
