Dan's very pleasant demeanor was a very nice complement to the whole experience. we would highly recommend him for your consideration.

I had a really positive series of experiences w/ Polli, including a porch they built for us. From…read moretheir estimator to their project team on the ground, and their staff in the office, I have nothing but good things to say. They made a recommendation for type of wood for our porch (that we hadn't considered). We listened to it and it worked out great. They communicate extremely well, provide a clear contract and did an outstanding job. They even removed some existing concrete I was trying to get rid of on my property for me. The guys on the work-site were kind, courteous and tried to make every accommodation not to be in the way. They get busy, so while they always responded to me it does take them awhile (during busy season) to get on the job. They are not 'cheap', but they do excellent work. I thought the price was pretty fair for the quality. I recommend them highly for reliable, high quality work.

I hired New Frameworks as they are affiliated with Efficiency Vermont's energy audit program. I…read morejust purchased a house built in 1921. It's a lovely little house and in very good condition, but old homes don't often meet today's high standards for insulation, etc. and I was curious to find out what my options were. It took a little while before they had free time for the audit, but in my estimation, if they're busy doing work for others that's a good thing. Dave and his partner did an amazingly thorough audit. Well surpassing anything I expected and turned around the report to meet my tight schedule. In fact, they uncovered things that I did not know about based on a previous inspection. Because it was a rainy day they were able to find a spot in the attic where things were leaking. Also they found some moisture damage I wasn't aware of on my second floor. Their report was extremely thorough containing photos and charts. And it came along with a 3-tiered recommendation list which was extremely helpful to me. I just got off the phone with Jacob who walked me through the report and the recommendation list. He was patient and comprehensive and agreed to coordinate with some of the other contractors I have met with to figure out the best solutions for me. New Frameworks does more than energy auditing. The do new build and renovations along with more offerings. They care about energy efficiency and it shows. Easy to work with. Very helpful and good customer service. Had I known what I do now I would have used them before buying the home to be completely educated. In fact, I think anyone buying an old home should have an energy audit from these guys/gals BEFORE purchasing as a condition of moving forward in the contract. I would have still bought the house but I would have known even more about it and that's never a bad thing. Highly recommend. And if you work with Efficiency Vermont (you're in their customer area) you get a $100 rebate on the cost of the audit, which is already well worth it based on what I now understand.

We had great difficulty finding a local roofer--with three companies, we faced multiple no shows, long waits for call backs and quotes, and trouble with scheduling. It seemed like none of the roofing companies had time for us. Someone suggested we take an alternate route and work with a general contractor...in comes Stewart Construction. Their quote was comparable to the roofing numbers we had seen, and we were scheduled to begin work two weeks later. S.C. was patient while we deliberated over colors and options, and they discussed in great detail how one product compared to another. We went with a 25 (30?) year architectural shingle by CertainTeed. S.C.'s carpenters uncovered a great deal of rot in the frame and nearby siding (half of our roof was 35+ year old metal w/ no plywood underneath). Working hard in the bitter cold, they repaired the damage at little extra cost to us. The porch section of the roof needed rolled out asphalt, which S.C. suggested we complete in the spring to avoid cracking the material. I appreciated that they were concerned with the manufacturer's recommendations and the longevity of the roof. When warm weather settled in, the guys came back and finished up. Overall, I was impressed with Stewart Construction's communication, respect for their client, and commitment to a job well done. When we do other projects around our home, I will certainly contact them again.
