Our Process.
At Haven Hill Builders, we want your space to be your own. A collaborative partnership with the client is square one. We start by listening to you—your ideas, priorities, and concerns—then share ours. Together, with our creative vision and experienced craftsmen, we’ll design and craft beautiful spaces and fixtures you’re sure to adore—personal, serene, and functional.
1. Consult & Collaborate.
We start by listening to you. In a walk-through or office consultation, we’ll respond with insight gleaned through years of experience designing, crafting, and restoring spaces. We’ll look beyond your immediate needs and maximize open space, functionality, and longevity.
2. Design & Refine.
We have a unique vision--an ability to brighten and enhance spaces through clean lines and understated beauty. Our spaces and fixtures reflect our belief that elegance must be functional, and our experience as artists, woodworkers, and LEED certified builders results in innovative designs that continually impress our clients.
3. Craft & Deliver.
Once a design has been finalized our builders and craftsman get right to work. Because we craft all our cabinetry and fixtures though our in-house woodworking studio, quality and timeliness are assured. No outsourcing means a perfect-fit, on time. Our woodworking studio and in-field builders work together to assure a perfect fit and finish in a timely manner.
Our Values.
At Haven Hill Builders, we're passionate about woodcraft. Whether it's a site visit to a new client's home to discuss the ways we can open and enhance their space, or laying down a final coat of varnish in our cabinetry shop, we love what we do. From the complete restoration of 19th century post-and-beam barns, to the design and construction of modern, zero-impact green homes, we've come to value a few things along the way.
1. Fine Craftsmanship.
We love what we do, and we put our best into everything we build. Haven Hill Builders is comprised of some of the most talented, knowledgeable, and experienced builders and woodworkers in the area. The quality of our work is second to none--it's what our customers keep coming back for.
2. Functional Beauty.
First and foremost, Haven Hill Builders wants your home to be yours. With a broad range of experience, from modern, zero-net use green homes to post-and-beam farm houses, we believe in crafting spaces that suit your unique tastes and needs, rather than conforming to any particular style or school of design. Many of our homes seamlessly blend New England tradition with contemporary open-design and utilize modern techniques and materials to craft what we call “functional beauty”-spaces that become the centerpiece of your living, while reducing long-term cost and environmental impact.
3. Balance of Tradition and Innovation.
The science of building and the availability of materials have greatly evolved over the past decade, but the beautiful heritage of the past need not be sacrificed in order for homes to evolve. We believe that through forethought and innovation, beautiful homes are made even better. In designing and building spaces that are purposefully crafted to suit your particular aesthetic taste, we’ll consider cost, longevity, and impact; evaluating materials use and sustainable practices, natural lighting and air circulation, and functionality and patterns of movement.
4. Collaboration.
Communicating with our clients matters. Our responsiveness to home-owners requests and open dialogue with them have helped us establish a great reputation. We know your home is important to you, and we'll keep you informed every step of the way.
