Owner-operated, hands-on, and built around getting the frame right the first time.
Ten Two Builders was founded on a simple idea: the steel frame sets the standard for everything that goes up after it. Every column plumb, every beam level, every connection torqued to spec — that's the work, and it's the only work we do.
Based in New Mexico, we work directly with general contractors and project owners across the high desert Southwest, bringing an owner-operated crew to every site instead of handing the job off down the chain.
A third-generation ironworker, Ryan brings more than 20 years of experience in structural steel erection to every Ten Two project. He prides himself on getting jobs done quickly and with close attention to detail, leading field operations and crew coordination from initial site walk through final close-out.

Every lift is checked and braced before we move to the next. Tolerances aren't a punch-list item — they're how we build from the start.
Ryan and Olivia are involved in every project directly — no layers between the person you called and the crew on site.
Steel erection sets the pace for every trade behind it. We sequence around your GC's timeline and communicate early if anything shifts.
Every crew member trained, every site walked before steel goes up. No shortcuts on fall protection or rigging.
