The Nehemiah Way is an idea we strive for as a team.
Nick was inspired by the Book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament when naming his company. Nehemiah was the original general contractor, rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem and helping restore peace in the city. Nehemiah General Contractors wants to make the construction process a positive experience allowing you to focus on the improvements we’re making. We understand that construction in someone’s life can feel intrusive and chaotic, but the Nehemiah Way means that all actions we take for your job are in service to the well-being of you, your family, and our work together.
The Team
Nick Muller is the owner and founder of Nehemiah General Contractors. Nick was born into a working construction family in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In 1998, he came out to Fort Collins, Colorado to complete a bachelor’s degree in Construction Management from Colorado State University. Nick has been working in the high-end, new-home and remodel industry for the past 20 years and has been building and remodeling in central Denver since 2003. Outside of NGC, he’s working on home projects for his wife, Kristin, or watching their four boys play sports. They love to road trip and are currently building up their boys’ Junior Ranger badge collection from National Parks across the country.
Nehemiah General Contractors is a Colorado based, family owned business focusing on construction and remodeling with a clear conscience. Service, honesty, and a passion for getting it right is the Nehemiah Way. We work hard to fulfill dreams: your dreams as our client and our dreams as a company. We believe our success is marked by your satisfaction with the end results and the process of getting there. We achieve this by upholding the highest quality standards, implementing effective communication, and treating you and your home with respect.

Alex Krutikov

I was born and raised in Eastern Europe, my family moved to Colorado in 2002. From a young age my father introduced me to the construction process as he was a home builder, later we worked together installing wood floors and taking on various carpentry projects. The construction industry is exciting and challenging at the same time, but most of all it is always rewarding to see how our hard work makes a big difference in our customer’s life. My wife Anna and I are raising two boys and are thrilled to be part of Nehemiah family.
Chris Wenhold

Chris is a multifaceted craftsman with an eye for detail. In January of 2020, Chris relocated to Denver from Philadelphia, PA with the drive and determination to take his career to the highest level of excellence. He has brought with him over 14 years experience in all stages of residential remodeling and an excellent history of client satisfaction. It is rare to see him without a smile on his face and a positive, can do attitude in his tool belt. Chris and his wife, Taylor, are completely overjoyed to have found their home with the Nehemiah family.
Julie Gibbs
Director of Finance
I am from Scottsdale, Arizona and thankful to be in Colorado. I can’t believe I survived in that heat! I love to cook. Cooking relaxes me and brings me a lot of joy to serve others. What I love about being in this industry is our company’s ability to make client’s dreams come true. This brings me a lot of joy and also I am very proud of the work my team has done. They are experts at what they do! If there is one cause that I am passionate about is serving people. If it is just a smile or if it’s to lend a hand with a friend who is almost blind and needs my eyes in taking her to the grocery store, I treat it as an honor to serve and show that person the love and dignity they deserve.
Kathy Schissler
Director of HR/Talent Management
Believe it or not, my birth certificate says “Denver, Colorado”. I am a certified native! I love hosting women’s retreats with an element of adventure. Our industry gives me the chance to be a student every single day. I love how Nehemiah earnestly tries to bridge the gap between a constantly shifting economy and helping bring our client’s dreams to life within the shifts. Someday I would like to take my grandkids on a drive around Denver to show and tell the story of the projects I got to be part of. I am passionate about helping people find freedom to thrive. Encouraging others with both practical help and good words is a worthy use of my time.

Born and raised in Denver, I received my Interior Design degree from a local college and jumped right into the construction industry. The most rewarding part of my career is having the opportunity to be part of impactful transformations. When a vision comes to life it’s more than a new space – it’s a representation of inspiration, hard work & collaboration. My biggest passion in life is rescuing dogs, specifically the misunderstood breeds. Providing dogs with their second chance to feel love, know trust and have safety is the most rewarding experience I have had in my life.

Our Passion
The Nehemiah Way is a foundational aspect of our company, influencing not only our client interactions but also how we engage with our community and the world.
When the owner of Nehemiah General Contractors started the company, there was always a vision for giving back. In 2019, we partnered with LOL Ministries in Belize, an organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable children and families. LOL Ministries operates a children’s home that provides care, education, and support for orphaned and at-risk children in the region. Through this partnership, Nehemiah contributes manpower, plans, and supplies to help build single-family homes on the orphanage property, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment where children can experience a sense of family and thrive.
In addition to housing, LOL Ministries focuses on holistic development, offering educational programs, healthcare, and spiritual guidance to empower the children they serve. If you are passionate about community service, traveling abroad, or wish to donate items, we encourage you to reach out to our office. We would love to discuss our upcoming projects and how you can get involved. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve through this vital partnership!
