Following a life long passion for architecture and building technology, Livwell Homes was founded by Dr. Chad Kotlarz in 2014. A special interest in environmental medicine and the science of “healthy” homes drove Chad to the construction industry, along with a desire to bring modern, efficient building to the area.

Chad’s expertise lies in the ability to design and build homes that emphasize efficiency, healthy living, and advanced construction techniques.
