Farnsworth Builders

Wes and David and the Farnsworth team built our dream house. They listened. They asked great questions. They gave great advice. And then they built the house that we will live in for the rest of our lives - the house we will raise our kids in - the house we love. Farnsworth Builders built our entire house from the ground up - better than we could have imagined because they had the experience to know a hundred different tiny little solutions to things that wouldn't have ever occurred to us - things that will save us time and money and frustration down the road. They are smart. They are capable. They are kind. They listen. And they build well. If you need a contractor, you cannot do better. You should call them.

We worked with Farnsworth Builders on a renovation project that basically became a new build of the existing residence. The scope and client were very specific and Wes and his team always asked the right questions and made sure that everything was built per the drawings and design direction. We have worked with a number of contractors and their team really goes above and beyond. They were not only very cordial and easy to work with, they were always there with a discerning eye and incredible attention to detail for the finishing touches; a skill you don’t often encounter in this industry. I whole heartedly recommend the team at Farnsworth Builders for any building project and we are excited to continue to work with them as we refer them to other clients with the utmost confidence in their skill and expertise.

We just completed a huge remodel of our home (master bath, master bedroom, master closet, guest bath, guest bedroom, open kitchen area) with Wes of Farnsworth Builders. I was very apprehensive about starting the process for this remodel as I almost didn’t even know where to start. Everyone has horror stories of hiring a contractor. I did my research and read numerous reviews on Angie’s Lists, Yelp, and also took recommendations from friends. Although all of the people I read about and spoke to seemed top-notch, what made Farnsworth Builders different was that Wes (the owner) was very easy to talk to about everything. He brought in his architect to also take a look at the structure of our home and to assess how the project could be completed. We would be tearing out walls, adding large windows, adding a balcony, and a patio door so there needed to be a proper structural assessment of the home. After the architect completed the design, Wes gave me an estimate, and I was ready to go with him. He asked me if I had received any other bids and I told him I wasn’t going to bother as I felt most comfortable with him right from the start. He insisted that I get some other bids because he wanted me to be completely comfortable with his process and estimate but it would be good to see how other contractors worked and what their estimates would be. He explained what to look out for and what kind of questions to ask. I ended up interviewing several contractors and architects and all of them were great, but I did not feel the kind of rapport I did with Wes. His architect also explained that one of the bonuses with hiring Wes was that he could also be consult on the interior design, picking out products and items for the house; basically it was a “one-stop shop” with Farnsworth Builders. Wes had even said that after we got the design from the architect, we didn’t even have to hire him as our builder. We could take the design and go with someone else. But of course, we told him he was the one we wanted to use. In the months before the start of the remodel, Wes guided us into preparing for the remodel. What I needed to look into, what kind of cabinets, tile, bathroom products, doors, etc. By the time we started, we were in a really good place and had most products delivered and ready to go. Wes insists on having everything ready before he starts so there aren’t unreasonable delays and wasted time. His workers were on time every day, on schedule, cleaned up after every work day, and a pleasure to have at our home. They were such a pleasure to have at the house. My husband would even hang out with them after the day and talk shop. We had some major issues that were discovered from the previous owner's "remodel" (using that term very loosely), but Wes not only explained the problems but also helped us fix things without breaking the bank. Throughout the remodel, Wes would explain what was going on, what needed to be done, and kept us fully informed on the process. I felt like Wes was building our home as he would his own. There were times that he would redo something if it weren’t exactly to his specification. And other times he would ask our opinion on something and I would just tell him to do it as he would his own home. That’s how much we trusted him. When we had our final inspection, our inspector praised his work. He said that he knew Wes’s work and completely trusted that everything was done according to code and knew that Wes is not the type of contractor that cuts corners or does anything unsafe. After almost 4 months, our home is complete and we are beyond thrilled. The process from start to finish was the best I can imagine for any remodel. I can't recommend them enough.

Really great experience with W. Farnsworth Builders in all respects and feel fortunate to have connected with them. Wes did a major remodel job on our first home - demolishing stone tile flooring, replacing it with hardwood, stripping ceilings and walls, installing recessed lighting throughout, 2 new bathrooms completely re-done, etc. We thew in a few difficulties like only deciding on doing the Master bath at the very end after we'd seen the great result on the guest bath and W. Farnsworth Builders didn't blink. On-time, on-budget, great communication and always accessible. They were out our home early in the morning and always working hard when we stopped by. Trying to save some pennies for hiring them again... Our experience with this contractor was totally the opposite of what we heard from friends and family on their experiences with other contractors!
