“I have had the pleasure of working first with Lance's dad who had excellent vision of the projects that I as a developer and builder was looking for. Lance has continued of the with tradition and has been great help to me and my customers, some of which were able to work directly with him to connect on their personal desires on what they want in their new loving homes.”

“Kevin and Joe were excellent to work with. They were responsive when I had a question and respectful in our home. They solved my kitchen demands within my budget and I ended up with a kitchen where I would not change a thing! Thank you!!”

“Great work ethic, meticulous to detail and enjoyable to work with. Together, Joseph and I designed a beautiful wall cabinet and then it was professionally installed by RemodelWerks's fantastic carpenters. We're getting RW back in to design another cabinet for the study.”

“Charles is an excellent architect whose advice and expertise were invaluable. He was very thorough and attentive to details for every aspect of our project. He was very easy to work with and always made himself available to answer any and all of our questions. We would definitely highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good, quality architect with high standards and integrity.”

“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.”

“Doug and Bill are an exceptional team. I have been working with them for many years and can say they have been nothing less than a first-rate team to associate with. Their knowledge, experience, organizational skills, and especially their attitude is outstanding. They are both a couple of "can do" guys that strive for nothing less than exceeding our clients expectations. Meeting budgets, schedules and satisfying clients are commonplace will Doug and Bill. Stating that I enjoy working with them is an understatement. With them on your team, success is inevitable.”

“Sage Builders were the general contractors for several projects in our home in particular for the large and complex retrofitting of a paneled library with coffered ceiling, purpose built sliding French doors, remodeled fireplace and special lighting. The project required the coordination of a variety of providers and contractors, including architects, carpenters, millwork specialists, decorators, lighting specialists, AV professionals, alarm system providers, painters, electricians, stone cutters, etc... Sage did a terrific job in guiding us throughout the process, they were reliable, available and present whenever needed, trustworthy, honest and meticulous in their follow through. They provided us with helpful and sensible advice borne of experience, were generous with their time and went out of their way to get the results we were seeking. They were always responsive, communicative, reasonable and a true pleasure to deal with. It was an expensive project but we are very pleased with the results as Sage was able to understand and interpret our desires extremely well. We would recommend them wholeheartedly and without reservations.”

“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.”

“Excellent process, from start to finish. Carolyn approached the design with thoughtfulness and creativity, and was clear about pricing. The team executed on the plan with a real focus on the quality of the work, while maintaining a clean and safe site for the time they were here. We couldn't be happier with the results.”

“WBA did my new roof, hardwood floors, plumbing, and other jobs in my renovation. The work was done quickly, professionally, and is beautiful. I would be happy to hire them again or recommend them for projects big and small. They were very helpful and understanding during the renovation loan process.”
