“Performance Excellence (Single-Family Homes): Bellwether Craftsmen and New Frameworks for Rose Hill Lane (Shelburne)”
We absolutely loved working with Bellwether Craftsmen. We wanted to come up with plans for a large home renovation, which I assumed would be a stressful project. Bellwether not only took the stress out of the project, but even made it enjoyable.Communication with these guys was easy. We are new home owners (very inexperienced) and we found that the Bellwether guys were great at speaking in terms that we could understand. They were able to listed to our needs/ideas, and translate that into a concept that was just what we wanted. Thanks guys!
Hiring Bellwether Craftsmen to convert a very rough workshop (that had a lot of issues) into a one bedroom apartment was absolutely the best decision. We loved working with them and the apartment is amazing. Communication was clear, the design was beautiful and creative, and the process was enjoyable. Brian's attention to detail and the quality of his work really shows in the final product. He and his team created a space that is both gorgeous and incredibly functional and we would not hesitate to recommend them or work with them again.
Good morning, so I wanted to take a second and leave a wonderful review of bellwether. They are the best builders in the state of Vermont. The Quality and workmanship they offer is unmatched. I have been working with them for many years now. I honestly cannot say enough good things about Brian and his crew. I hope to continue working with them for many more years. Thank you all. Happy holidays to the entire company.
