C3 Construction Services, LLC

Peter Crain founded C3 Construction in 2001, after being engaged in the business of building since 1991. With a Masters Degree in Education and working full time as an Art Teacher at Eden Prairie High School specializing in sculpture and theatre set design, Peter also pursued his second love of building during academic breaks. After a decade of both teaching and building, Peter’s contracting business became a full time endeavor. Attracted to the idea of utilizing his artistic talents on a larger scale, Peter transformed his one-person construction company offering remodeling and carpentry services to a full-service remodeling and building company working to create exemplary homes throughout Edina and South Minneapolis.

Majoring in Art Education and studying architecture at the University of Minnesota strengthened Peter’s natural talent for construction and design. Founding his own home renovation and custom home building company has provided Peter with the opportunity to capitalize on his aesthetic strengths and education. His expert eye, natural curiosity and creative talents make him an excellent partner with the homeowner leading to an exquisitely finished and distinctly original project.

As a resident himself of an established and older neighborhood, Peter’s tasteful focus keeps C3 projects true to their original roots, while his natural designer’s eye leads to innovative ideas and unique opportunities. His experience in raising three boys (the origin of the C3 name – three C’s!) has provided him firsthand knowledge of prime utilization of space and room for growth based on the unique preferences of his clients.
