Berkshire Mountain Design Build, LLC
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Great Barrington.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 August 2016
“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.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 March 2015
“Jay built our house and Maurica designed the kitchen. We are thrilled with everything. Our house was very challenging, with a lot of strange angles. Plus, Jay started building during the height of winter and still finished on time. Couldn't offer a higher recommendation.”
Shimon Rotches Construction

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 November 2017
“I have come to rely on the knowledge and expertise of this general contractor more than my architect! Always on schedule and always fair with his pricing - I have worked with Shimi for almost 5 years on projects of all sizes - I just can not say enough about his attention to detail, ability to problem-solve and coordinate all the millions of details that i toss in his direction.”

“Steve MacLeay provided the comprehensive services of costing, project management, and construction for a custom home that I designed. I found Steve to be very professional and thoughtful throughout the process, with an appreciation for the balance between design and budget. Long afterwards he continues to serve that customer, who was obviously very pleased as well.”

Cavagnaro Construction Co., Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Great Barrington.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 June 2013
“Larry Cavagnaro is a gem. His crew is outstanding, bright, creative and knowledgeable. They come on time, work hard and clean up at the end of the day. I have heard such horror storeis about other people's renovation jobs. Mine has been better than I could have imagined. I had the floor in the great room replaced with bamboo throughout rather than the rug and tile that was there. The propane fireplace was installed, along with the skylight; the entire room painted to lighten up the existing tongue and groove ceiling and walls. The existing fan was replaced with a new modern one. I am delighted with the results and highly recommend Larry's services.”
Lanoue Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Great Barrington.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 May 2020
“Dave Lanoue has a family operation and it comes across in everything he does. Dave is professional, communicative, thoughtful and highly skilled. There is not a person who has entered our home that has not commented on the excellent workmanship. We feel fortunate to have found Dave when interviewing contractors to build our home. He puts a great deal of care and attention into not only the details of the build, but the quality of his relationship with his client. I could not recommend him more highly.”

Whitehall Construction LLC
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Great Barrington.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 May 2014
“Meo Veldhuizen at Whitehall Construction was great to work with on the construction of our new home in Litchfield, Connecticut. He listened carefully to our design needs and then translated our ideas into reality. As a result, our house is infused with custom features---from the curved arch in the dining room and fireplace to the custom pantry shelving and cabinetry in our mudroom, laundry room, and the custom bookshelves and window seats in our home office, master bedroom and other rooms. Building a new house was overwhelming to me at first, but with Meo's support and clear ideas based on his knowledge of architecture and construction, the process was a smooth one (even though I worked with him remotely most of the time!). Our current project with Whitehall, which is now halfway complete, is building a new barn with loft above and room for 2 vintage cars below using both salvaged and new materials. The aim is a classic "New England" look by using both vintage and modern materials. So far, the results look every bit as wonderful as I had hoped.”
