Meet Our Team
David Thorne
CEO
Meet David, our visionary CEO with an illustrious career deeply rooted in the construction industry. From residential remodels, additions, and smaller renovations to large commercial projects and tenant improvements, David has done it all. He’s distinguished by his hands-on approach, often self-performing the work, and his journey began with his father’s construction company, where he earned $5 per blister—instilling in him the value of hard work from a young age.
As a serial entrepreneur, David’s passion lies in building both companies and meaningful relationships. He’s learned that the cornerstone of a successful construction company is the right focus, where meaningful relationships serve as the foundation. David is dedicated to ensuring that the company’s core values permeate its very essence.
Beyond the construction world, David is a fervent BYU fan and season ticket holder, but he has one weakness—spiders. In a charming twist, it’s his wife who bravely takes on the task of spider extermination in their household, showcasing that even fearless CEOs have their vulnerabilities.

What It’s Like to Work with CM Pros
David was correct. Not only did he diagnose the problem but did an amazing job repairing the extensive damage, including a main support post, that wasn’t part of the original project. While most people are waiting months for appliances, sub-contractors, etc. in this horrible supply chain climate he used his network to find everything, and everyone, we needed to get the project done in record time. He took care of literally everything throughout the process. His sub-contractors love working with him and they actually show up 😊 We are enjoying our new beautiful space already with only a few small details to finish up. We’ll be sad to see him go. Not only is he an amazing contractor but really does care about his customers and takes great pride in the quality of work performed. David is a great person all the way around. We’ll hire him again for future projects and highly recommend him. Happy CMP Customer in Sandy, Utah"
We made a couple of changes and added on couple of projects and he adjusted as needed for us. He also had a couple of creative suggestions for us which we appreciated. The crews and sub contractors were professional and dependable and I felt good and did not worry about having them in my home.
Just like others during this time there were supply chain issues and Dave dealt with these issues professionally and communicated with us. Dave is honest, and the work was done the way we expect, I’m picky, and it turned out beautiful.
I would work with Dave again and highly recommend him."
David communicated well throughout the process so that there were no surprises and made himself available to answer any questions or concerns we may have had.
Also, despite the craziness in construction these days with regards to worker and material availability, he was able to get all of the work done as planned (we had a strict deadline).
Overall, after vetting a few contractors out there, we are glad we decided to choose David for our project!"
See for yourself
