RIDGEVIEW CONSTRUCTION

My family hired Shane Carter and Ridgeview Construction for the building of a single residence home in Newmarket, NH. We were looking for a "green" builder who had experience working with energy efficient building concepts during our search. We found Shane on the internet and after an initial meeting with him, decided to work with his architect to design the home. RC helped us integrate a # of "green" elements into the home including structurally integrated panels (SIPs), a air-source heat pump (ducted with HRV), locally sourced white pine flooring, reclaimed interior doors, energy star windows and doors (41 in total), a heat pump water heater, and thoughtful integration of the entire energy system to take best use the energy generated by our solar tracker. The RC team and their subcontractors were all very professional; performed exemplary work and ended up building the exact house that we wanted. They essentially took a Powerpoint drawing that we made and turned it into a house. Some of our favorite design elements of the house are the reclaimed doors that we purchase from Architectural Salvage in Exeter, NH; an extremely well planned and space efficient pantry, built in book cases in our office; stained glass windows that look into the stairs from our kids bedrooms and a beautiful farmhouse sink that we had obtained for free from a house in Newfields (which they masterfully cut to fit under the windows). RC was very flexible throughout the entire building process and made adjustments as we made small changes during the build. Shane was also very helpful in making sure that we were well within our allowances and went out of his way to help us save money. Our total project costs ended up being under the original cost projections because of savings he found us in our allowances. We were extremely happy with Ridgeview and would highly recommend them to anyone interested in "green" building in NH. Thanks Shane, Andy and the entire Ridgeview team-Jon, Jane, George, Eva and Bonnie.

I hired Ridgeview Construction to remodel my kitchen last fall after moving into our home. The process went very well and to my surprise they finished a week faster than they said they were going to in order to have everything complete in time for the holiday season. After the kitchen was installed I realized that I wanted to make a change to something that required a new cabinet to be built. I was impressed with the turn-around time to get this done and I think it helped to have been working with a cabinet maker right here in NH. The entire team was extremely helpful. Matt worked with us on our design to make sure that we had captured all the details and never made us feel rushed. All of the people that worked on our home made my family comfortable and I've already began the process of hiring them for future projects on the home. I've recommended them to friends and they have had the same experience. We are happy we found them.

We hired Ridgeview to do a complete remodel of our kitchen. We were under some time constraints, as I was due to have our second child just a few weeks after the start of the project. Ridgeview did a phenomenal job on the remodel and completed it before the arrival of our daughter, which was not an easy task. The Ridgeview employees and subcontractors were all very professional and even made the project fun for us. They also made sure we were completely satisfied with all aspects of the project, which is why we are hiring them to remodel other parts of our house.

I have hired Ridgeview Construction for many projects at my home over the years. My experience has always been very positive. The end result of this comprehensive renovation was a beautiful and energy efficient rehab of my home. The crew was a pure pleasure to have around and were respectful, timely, and worked tirelessly. My home was left spotless every day. This is a company that knows what they are doing, believes in perfection, and keeps organization and communication with the home owner as a top priority. Ridgeview is the first company that I have worked with that would often times make cost savings suggestions when it made sense which was very much appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the talented crew at Ridgeview for your building needs.
