In today’s episode, we sit down with Tyler Hall, owner of Hall Contracting, to unpack his nearly 20-year journey from evenings-and-weekends side work to leading one of Colorado’s most respected landscape construction and maintenance companies.
What started as a small operation focused on craftsmanship, specifically water features, has grown into a business with nearly 100 employees, a powerful reputation, and a culture rooted in service, accountability, and family values. Tyler shares the real story behind that growth: the risks taken, the mistakes made, and the mindset shifts required to scale without losing what matters most.
You’ll hear how Hall Contracting built a thriving business primarily through word of mouth, why leadership at scale requires letting go of perfection, and how investing in people and culture creates long-term stability, even in a seasonal industry.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur just getting started or a business owner navigating growth pains, this episode delivers practical lessons on leadership, resilience, and sustainable expansion.
