Featured Reviews for Builders in Princeton, NJ

Fresh Start Renovations, LLC
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 May 2017
“Fresh Start renovated our kitchen when we were looking to move. Cody and his team did a fantastic job!! They helped come up with a more efficient layout and assisted every step of the process from picking out cabinets to appliances. It was a very smooth process and we would definitely like to use them for projects in our new home.”
Dino General Contractor
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 May 2019
“Dino installed our kitchen cabinets with perfect precision and detail. He built our island beautifully like a piece of furniture. He sat with us through the entire kitchen design to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and that all designs made sense with functionality and fit. He often followed up with vendors to ensure we got what we paid for and received the best finished product. Dino was a great liaison for us to source the right products and subcontractors, we are not in the construction business and this was our first home and renovation. He spent all the time we needed with us and we never felt rushed. He completed our project down to last detail before moving onto his next job. We felt we could then and still can call him anytime with questions.”

VLS Builders, Inc.
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 March 2023
“Big shout out to Val and his team. Reliable, honest, high communication and great skills. Complete renovation down to the studs with a massive addition, new everything! Renovations are never an easy thing but Val held our hand throughout the entire process and made our dream home a reality. So many decisions to make along the way. Val was always available to answer questions, support and guide us in the right direction... and keep us calm, LOL. It came out beautiful and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. If you're thinking about hiring VLS Builders don't hesitate, my wife and I highly recommend them. Thank you Val for your dedication and hard work.”

A to Z Improvements
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 June 2017
“AtoZ Improvements are my go-to contractors and have done multiple jobs in my new home, the most recent of which was my master bathroom. The owner Bill is truly an artist and takes the time to discuss design with you, he has a GREAT eye for detail and will explain every detail of your project so that you understand exactly how the work will be done. He will not stop until the job is done to perfection and within budget! Thank God because it is hard to find contractors that are reliable or care these days! Hire AtoZ Improvements, don't waste time searching elsewhere, this is a sure thing!”
A&E Construction and Design Center
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 January 2013
“I have hired A&E Construction for both large and small projects multiple times over the past 8 years and without any hesitation, give them the highest recommendation possible. The owner of the company, Greg Fontaine, is experienced, knowledgeable, honest and reliable. Projects were always done on time and on budget and if for some reason, the schedule needs to change, Greg does an excellent job communicating the reasons. Before working with A&E, we hired many contractors over the years, and no one ever compared in terms of quality of work combined with reliability and trustworthiness. Another thing we've really appreciated about working with Greg is his ability to provide us with options and ideas if we needed to scale back on a project. Two of the larger projects Greg did for us were finishing our basement and building a poolhouse. Greg was very cognizant that we did not have an unlimited budget and worked with us to make sure we got the most for our money. Greg also does an excellent job hiring talented and reliable people that I am always comfortable having in my home. Additionally, they are very neat and always clean up after themselves at the end of each day. Lastly, and most importantly, Greg really cares about his customers and goes above and beyond what's expected to make sure they are 100% satisfied. I can't say enough good things about him and A&E!! If you hire them, you won't be disappointed.”
AW Martin Construction, Inc.
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 July 2014
“Built a new extension, remodeled kitchen and built a new deck. The majority of the work was of the highest quality. Organization and planning could have been better. The project took a lot longer than expected. Some situations were beyond our control while others could have been avoided through better coordination. On the whole we are very happy with the work. We broke ground in November - it's now late July and I think we have 3 - 4 more weeks of work till we are completed.”

“These guys do great work. I will use them again and recommend them as well. Very personable and real easy to have in your home while improving how we live!”
Primiano Architecture
Builders in Princeton, NJ
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 April 2020
“We hired Primiano Architecture to design an addition for our house. We had no experience dealing with an architect or doing a home improvement project of this magnitude. Primiano Architecture was recommended to us by an acquaintance. From our first meeting with Joe we knew he was the right person. He was honest, intelligent and most importantly he listened and made suggestions. It was a true partnership. Joe worked closely with us throughout design, township approval, choosing a contractor and final approval. We could not be any happier with how the project turned out. I would give Primiano Architecture 4 out 4 stars and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for an architect.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Princeton:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects.
