Meet The Team
A Family-Built Company Rooted in Real Life
Built From Family. Designed for Real Life.
Tatro Building & Remodeling is a family-run design + build company based in Northern Vermont, serving families throughout the surrounding areas.
Our work is shaped by real life inside real homes
We are a large, blended family—biological, adopted, and foster children—navigating busy schedules, evolving needs, and the kind of daily logistics that make function, flow, and thoughtful planning essential. We’ve lived in homes that supported our family well, and homes that didn’t. That lived experience changed how we see building.
To us, a home should do more than look good.
It should support the people living in it.
That belief is the foundation of everything we do.
Why We Believe Homes Should Support Life
When a home works, life feels easier.
When it doesn’t, stress shows up everywhere.
We’ve experienced firsthand how cramped layouts, poor flow, and spaces that don’t adapt can make even simple routines exhausting—especially for a growing family with complex medical and accessibility needs. We know what it’s like to plan a day around equipment, appointments, and care, and how much a thoughtful space can lighten that load.
That’s why we don’t build from templates.
We build from understanding.
Every project begins with listening, planning, and making intentional decisions that support how families actually live—now and in the years ahead.
Our Core Values
The way we design, build, and work with families is guided by three core values:
Intentional
We plan carefully and make decisions with purpose. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is assumed.
Liveable
Homes should feel good to live in—not just look good in photos. Comfort, usability, and longevity matter.
Flow
Spaces should move naturally and support daily routines, not work against them.
These values guide how we approach every project, every conversation, and every home we’re trusted to work in
Meet the Family Behind the Work
David Tatro — Owner
David is the owner of Tatro Building & Remodeling and brings over 25 years of experience in construction and remodeling. He served in the U.S. Army directly out of high school, an experience that shaped his leadership, discipline, and commitment to responsibility, follow-through, and doing things the right way.
David is involved both in the field and in overseeing projects from start to finish, ensuring each home is planned carefully and built with intention. He believes that quality work begins long before construction starts—with listening, clear communication, and respect for both the home and the people who live in it. His steady, hands-on approach sets the tone for how projects are run: organized, thoughtful, and never rushed.
For David, building isn’t just about structures or timelines. It’s about creating homes that function well, hold up over time, and truly support the families living in them—because a well-built home makes everyday life easier.
