Van Natta Builds

“I have worked with the Van Natta's for many projects over the past 15 years. We have done major renovations as well as smaller projects such as window and door replacements.

“Excellent firm. Every employee is courteous & extremely knowledgeable. They listen to your wants and needs & devise a plan around that. Very professional. Beautiful wood-working. All builders should strive to reach their level. Definitely recommend them as number one for a timber frame home.”
Dufour Design LLC
Home Builders & Construction Companies in West Dover.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2013
“Project: Redesign small, 1970's era outdated galley kitchen to make more open/inviting/up to date. Dufour Design was selected after a thorough review process amongst other local contractors. Jamie stood out as someone with integrity and honesty, a willingness to work within a budget, and an ability to think "outside the box" for concept, design and efficient/responsible use of materials. Deadlines were met with effective communication of progress--this was especially important as we were not physically at the project during renovation. Superb craftsmanship and attention to detail. We are thrilled with the finished product, and would highly recommend Dufour Design.”
Jamaica Cottage Shop Inc
Home Builders & Construction Companies in West Dover.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 April 2015
“Jamaica Cottage Shop is awesome. We had a playhouse (Writers Haven) and a shed (Potting Shed), and both are extremely well built. They're very sturdy, and they delivered it to the exact spot we wanted. Our customer representative, Mindy, made sure we got everything we wanted for specifications. She let us customize the buildings so that they were exactly what we wanted! You can always check out pictures on their website.”

Vermont Barns
Home Builders & Construction Companies in West Dover.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 March 2018
“The Wadsworth Company/VT Barns built our dream home near Mount Snow in 2015. We could not be happier with their level of execution and the quality of the workmanship. Rob Wadsworth and his team have a unique ability to turn dreams into reality and this is largely due to the incredible group of designers, carpenters and subcontractors that they assemble for the project. They truly cared about turning the collective vision for the project into reality. A key testament to their professionalism and capability is that they remain great friends with so many of their clients. We love being part of the Wadsworth family :-)”
Outer Green LLC
Home Builders & Construction Companies in West Dover.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 March 2015
“We wanted to remove our old deck and replace it with a larger, multi-step deck almost triple the size and made from cumaru, a Brazilian hardwood. Daniel from Outer Green spent a great deal of time working with us on the designs and providing drawings for me to complete the permit and inspection process with the city. I wanted to take care of the wiring/lighting myself and he made sure that the construction phases lined up with my schedule. The work was completed right on schedule and we could not be more pleased with the deck! We are planning to use Outer Green again this year for a bathroom renovation.”
Seaver & Sons Custom Builders
Home Builders & Construction Companies in West Dover.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 December 2016
“Chris and his crew built a house for us in 2002–2003. He designed the house as well, working closely with us to give us everything we wanted within our budget and meeting all deadlines. He's a delightful guy to work with. He and his crew were friendly, cheerful (that really does make a difference) professional, and skilled. It was a very positive experience and we love the house.”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service firm to design and build your entire West Dover, VT project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build construction for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?


Design-build companies take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, design-build firms are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which oftens speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Before deciding on a design-and-build firm, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for aVermont design-builder who specializes in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which design-and-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
  • Are your employees licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can this job get done?
  • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
