Lefevre Remodeling, LLC
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 February 2015
“Mike and his crew were amazing to do business with. They were prompt, professional and neat. They did an amazing job with great attention to detail which is very important to me. I would highly recommend them for any job you have big or small!”
Chenaille-Moore Builders
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 November 2020
“Very professional. They knew better than I knew myself what I wanted. They made the project better. I paid for the extra but I never regretted the choices. Ten years later I still smile when I walk out onto the deck. Thanks guys! My only complaint is how busy they are and that is understandable. They are well worth the wait.”
Aspen Associates LLC
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 March 2016
“I have been in business for 36 years and rarely find a tradesmen of such knowledge and integrity. Aspen Ass. are experienced to the point where they know how to get the project done right first the first time around. His guidance helped me make the right decisions in many aspects of our job. Mike is a pleasure to work with and I hope he is around for a long time too come for I have other projects I would like him to perform.”
Jack Miller Contractors
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 January 2015
“We have worked with Jack Miller Contractors on a porch railing project and had nothing but success. They were careful to do their "homework" on the materials, and then ordered in a timely fashion so that there were no hiccups in the process. We would recommend them, and gladly work with them again.”
Cummings General Contractor, Inc.
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2012
“Albert Cummings was hired as general contractor for the remodeling of our 19th century carriage barn. He and his wife, Christina, contributed a great deal to the pleasure of this project. Starting with an neglected bldg and restoring it to its magnificent state required many, many problem solving tasks. Responsive to our limited budget, Albert and his crew were simply wonderful to work closely on doing the right things. This building, one of the best in our small town, is a wonder to behold in no small part becuase of what Albert brought to the project. Highly recommend him for contracting and for his blues guitar playing. Amazing guy.”
John J. Read Construction Corporation
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 February 2016
“John was great to work with. He took the time to go through several options for our deck and exterior door, made sure we were comfortable with our decision. His work exceeded our expectations and price was competitive. We definitely plan on using John for all of our future work”
Lijoi Builders
Builders in Shaftsbury, VT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 September 2012
“As co/owner of Laney's Restaurant I hired Vince Lijoi of Lijoi Builders to repair and rebuild sections of my restaurant that were damaged. Not only did Vince fix the damage he made my building better by fixing it the correct way. On one occasion my ceiling collapsed over night, I called him the next morning, he responded and fixed it immediately so I could open for business. Vince is a wonderful contractor, does GREAT work, has an exceptional attention to detail and on top of all that he is fair and honest. When starting another business I used Lijoi Builders and Vince helped me through the planning and zoning process. I would highly recommend Lijoi Builders if you want things done right.”
West River Builders LLC

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 December 2019
“Thoroughly enjoyed working with West River Builders. They are honest, respectful, and professional. Matt proved to be a good listener and adviser, with great ideas to share. He honors his commitments to quality and timeliness. We are very pleased with the end result of his work and plan to engage him again for future projects in the spring. Thank you, Matt!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 December 2012
“Tim, of MTJ Home Improvements, just completed our master bath and did an exceptional job. Tim's work is impeccable as are his work ethics. He is reliable, honest and a pleasure to work with. Tim has done other projects for us and we have always been extremely pleased with the results. Tim will be renovating our kitchen shortly and we have full confidence that he will do as beautiful a job as he did in our bathroom and elsewhere. We could not recommend him and MTJ Home Improvements more highly!”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Shaftsbury:
  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.
