New Home Construction Services in Durham, CT

“My wife and I hired Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling to build an addition onto the back of our house, which included a new kitchen, family room, patio, mudroom, and other modifications to the interior. From the start, I was very impressed with Keith’s preparedness and diligence. He created a very detailed and transparent budget (approximately 10 pages), which outlined each item to be done and the price. More importantly, his estimate was accurate, and the prices that we agreed to did not change throughout the project. Keith is also very hands-on. He was on-site every day during the project. He is extremely responsive by email and phone, and if I emailed him a question while I was at work, within a very short period of time, I would receive a response. He was also available on weekends to meet with me, which was more convenient for my schedule. The workmanship of Kling Brothers Builders is top notch. Their on-staff carpenters are excellent, and their subcontractors are all superb. I did not have any issues with shoddy work or questionable characters walking around my property or in my house. Keith is very diligent about the “structure” and integrity of the building, and takes pride in how well built and solid the “bones” of the project are. Although I am not a builder myself, you can just tell that something is well put together by looking at it. Keith stresses quality and perfection, and was not satisfied until we were satisfied. He has access to some of the best craftsmen in the area, and in particular he introduced us to a custom cabinet maker who created a showcase kitchen for us. His other subs, such as the electrician, the plumber, etc., were all personable and flexible. All in all, we were very impressed and happy with Keith Kling. Although my wife and I are reasonable, we also have very high standards. Given the size of our project (to us), we expected top service and attention. Keith came through with flying colors, and he was very friendly, personable, and professional throughout. I have no tolerance for service providers who do not do what they say or make you feel as though you are doing them a favor by giving them your money. Keith is certainly not one of those people. Our project came in on budget, and any additional work that I wanted done was communicated and agreed-to up front. There were no surprises and the communication between Keith and us could not have been better. I give Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling my highest recommendation. I hope to use them again on a future project.”

“Exponent is a highly professional company that we plan to use again. Ethan DeSota, the owner listens well, and follows up on every detail. He quotes open and honestly with transparency all along the way. He keeps to his timeline and the budget, there’s no wondering whether he’s coming back or if he will drop the project at any point. Ethan keeps his word and shows up every time. His work is impeccable and his team equally professional, highly skilled and conscientious! We’d recommend him to anyone who has a project large or small!”

“Highly recommend Grain and Steel contractors. Keith and his team did an excellent job of complete remodeling of two bathrooms in an older home. Nothing was too much trouble and his advice and Robin’s design choices were always sound. I would definitely use them again.”

“MOST Builders & General Contracting provided an estimate that was in-line with other kitchen remodeling companies in the area. The project was to remove current cabinets and replace with new, using relatively the same footprint and to convert a coat closet to a dry bar, including the installation of a shelf for wine bottles and rack for glasses. MOST Builders custom built the new cabinets and installed them, worked with the countertop installer and plumber to coordinate demolition of old and installation of new. Very neat, cleaned up each day after working and removed debris from work site. I also hired them to replace old inside doors with new, including installation of new handles. I would hire them again for any other work needed in my house!”
