We moved to the mountains from Salt Lake City about 25 years ago , a strategic move that truly set us apart

Values and commitment
As one of Utah ’ s leading homebuilders , Watts has achieved remarkable success over the years . Russ explains what factors he believes have contributed to the company ’ s continued growth . “ I believe that our ongoing success can largely be attributed to our talented and dedicated staff . Many of our team members have been with us for years , even decades , with some of them having been at Watts for as long as 35 years . At Watts , we operate like a family-run company , where employees do not just come and go every few years . This is because we treat everyone with integrity and as if they were a member of our family , and we are connected by common objectives . Our family values and vision extend beyond our employees and are shared by our suppliers and subcontractors as well . By having such a cohesive group of partners and employees committed to delivering high-quality work , we have built an even stronger reputation , enabling us to secure business and remain busy even when the economy slows down ,” he says .
