Design and Build Companies in Pittsfield, MA

“We hired Tony and crew to design and execute a Post and Beam front porch using our own cherry harvested from our property. Tony chose the trees, harvested them , planed the beams , and designed and erected the most beautiful, elegant front entry we've ever seen or could have imagined. It has a simplicity that makes the most of the wood and complements the design of the house. His enthusiasm and craftmanship with the project was unparalleled in our experience.”

“Thanks to Flatbrook, I LOVE my kitchen again. They transformed a small, uninteresting space into an modern, beautiful and ergonomically designed space that has become the central focus of the house. They were respectful of my time line and my budget and I highly recommend them.”

“I have hired Haydenville Woodworking and Design twice. This gives an idea of how pleased I am with their work. They redid my master bathroom and the powder room. Each project came out better than I had hoped. Their construction work and their cabinetmaking are excellent. In addition, they were the most pleasant work people I have ever had around. The estimate was very clear and Lance explained all charges in detail. I would not consider using any other company. If you hire Haydenville you will be happy with your project.”

“Taylor Bryan designed and built a major kitchen/half bath/mudroom renovation for our 1960's home. They were courteous, knowledgable, creative and wonderful to work with. They listened to our wants and needs and worked with us patiently to come to a design that satisfied both our wants in terms of space and our needs in term of a budget. They also were willing to help us envision a fourth bedroom addition that we will hopefully undertake in the near future. We needed to "see" the whole picture renovation before committing to the first-stage of the renovation and they were willing to do this with us. They also worked with us to figure out a solution of where to put the washer/dryer for we had to move it from its existing space on the first floor for the 1st stage of the renovation but weren't ready to put it where it will eventually go once the second stage of the renovation is complete. They began the project on time, finished on time and the price of the project was exactly the price we agreed upon (to the penny). We would recommend them for sure!!!”

“The Laplante Construction team is top notch. Every project they complete is impeccable down to the smallest detail. Bill and Ray are both great people and great to work with as well.”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Todd Cellura over a year ago and found him to be very knowledgeable and Honest. We are now working on a Project together that will surely turn out Fantastic.”

“Jock and his team have now done two big renovation jobs at our house outside Chatham and we are already talking about a third. I wouldn't think of hiring a different builder. The budgeting and billing process is fair and transparent with no rude surprises, the workmanship is flawless, the workmen are great to have around and both jobs have gotten done in exactly the time frame promised. (Having done other jobs with other contractors in other places, believe me, these are words I never thought I would say about any contractor!) When unexpected conditions come up as they always do in renovations of old houses Jock is instantly on the spot to address them. Andrew, Jock's design partner, is gifted and tireless. Though I am now a screenwriter and director I was previously an architect, which makes me not the easiest design client, and both Andrew and Jock have handled my hyper-involved madness with grace and calm. The finished product on both jobs has the glow of work done meticulously and with a deep commitment to getting it exactly right. I give Claverack Builders my highest recommendation.”

“Decumanus Green built my beautiful, sustainable, near-zero-energy home with expertise, care, forethought, and follow-up. They understood my green building goals, were eager to work with me, proved to be excellent and intelligent advisors, and executed professional building skills and knowledge. In addition, they worked well with me at every stage, in particular in making ongoing decisions and in keeping the project affordable. Three years past construction, I continue to be thrilled with my home. As a super-insulated, passive and active solar house that uses no fossil fuels, it is performing extremely well and costing a very small, fixed amount for energy. I would highly recommend Joe Carry and his team at Decumanus Green for small or large construction projects, especially those that have interest and concern for environmental sustainability.”

“Just finished a major renovation of our home with Oxbow--three bathrooms, kitchen work and other smaller changes. From start to finish they were professional. They are also extremely creative with interesting and wonderful ideas. And most of all, they are easy to work with. Communication was clear from the initial meetings on. Once work began, they arrived each day on time, cleaned up at the end of each day and were easy to have around the house. When issues came up during the renovation, which they always do, they were able to offer great solutions that were within our budget. We're thrilled with the outcome and intend to use them again for a basement project in the near future. Couldn't have been happier.”

“Design-Build: Renovating the Right Way When we first entertained the idea of remodeling our home we worked with an architect to help us figure out how we could make our house function better. We ended up with drawings and had no idea where to go next. During our search for a builder, we learned about design-build which provides one unified flow of work from initial concept through project completion. We engaged Integrity Development & Construction under a single contract to provide design and construction services. The collaborative relationship we built with Heidi, our designer, and Kyle, our Project Manager, during the design phase set the stage for a smooth and successful project. Heidi and Kyle were extremely patient with us, answering all of our questions and providing us with excellent advice and ultimately a great design that addressed our needs. We spent a good amount of time selecting tile, flooring, paint colors, plumbing fixtures, finishes, etc. that all went into the final scope of work which determined the bottom line contract cost. Because Integrity was responsible for both designing AND building the project, great attention was given to pricing and scheduling in the design phase. The costs of all aspects of the project were taken into account early on in the process; all fees, construction costs, finishes, etc. were accounted for in the contract and the cost would only change if we – the homeowners – made changes. On the first day of demolition, we were introduced to Bert who was our lead carpenter for the entire project. He was at our house every day during the entire renovation. Kyle, our project manager, checked in weekly to review any change orders or to discuss upcoming work that was to be done. Both Kyle and Bert were very responsive to any texts/emails we sent with questions or concerns. Any issues we had were addressed immediately and with perfect aplomb. We worked closely with the Integrity team with a shared goal of completing a successful project. We lived in our house during the entire 4 months of demo and construction. Everyone from Integrity was very respectful of our space leaving the house clean and tidy at the end of each workday. We had a great working relationship with Bert, our carpenter which was important as he arrived at our house at 7 AM each and every day. He was incredibly industrious and kept the project on track. At the end of the project when we looked at our new kitchen and two new bathrooms we felt like we were looking at a high-end design magazine. Attention had been paid to every little detail. And the budget stayed on track – no surprises! Strangely we missed all of our Integrity friends after the project was done. When we are ready for another project Integrity will definitely be our first call. Bottom Line: if you want your project to run smoothly, stay on budget, work with fun and interesting people, call Integrity.”
