Many architects and designers work in isolation, without the input from experts in the trades. Construction today is far too complex for that as products, methods, and codes change almost daily. When we design, we rely on input from our partners in each pertinent field, from foundation, to roofing and everything in-between, to find the optimum value solutions for each design.
Builders
Our hands-on and decades long construction experience is complimented with focus, integrity, and a personal touch. This ensures that our clients’ specific goals and needs are not only met with meticulous craftsmanship but with cleanliness and care as well. Our services go beyond the “bricks and sticks” and extend to every facet of the construction experience.
Managers
Our focused management and organizational skills are the cornerstone of our clients’ satisfaction. These benefit the entire design-build process and help us create solutions while meeting your budget and expectations at every stage of the project. From the detailed plans and specifications, to the written weekly work schedule, to the clearly formulated accounting procedures, our clients are well informed and able to follow the process.

I used Cottage to redo the kitchen and laundry room in my Turn of the (20th) Century house. It was also the house I grew up in, so it was an emotional process for me as well. Everyone at Cottage was professional yet understanding. The first thing they did was listen, and we

As an interior designer I have had such a good experience working with Cottage Industries, Inc. Having worked with many contractors I know how crucial and how rare it is to find one in which every professional communicates well and in which projects are finished on time and

In 2016 my wife and I embarked on a full house renovation of a 6100 sq ft, 1893 stone Victorian home. We interviewed several design and build firms and chose Cottage because they seemed to care as much about restoring the home as we did. Nick and Adam were very professional

Cottage Industries finished my basement exquisitely, which included a partially sunk endless pool and a decorative fireplace. They also did a thoroughly unique sun room for me. It included floor to ceiling glass and we use it daily. Adam always kept his word and the answer w
