Everything from the framing materials (love the 6″ walls) to the pocket door pulls (nicer than we’ve found in any big box store) was a pleasant surprise from a quality perspective.” - The Atwell’s, NY Custom Hamilton Ranch | Springport, NY

Tuesday's Testimonial

“Thanks for all you’ve done to help us build our Duplex in Cortland. We’ve enjoyed the entire process, beginning with our first meeting with Eric Barden and Steve Hollister. We were pleasantly surprised to learn you could work with our drawings. Once the deliveries began arriving on our site, we were impressed with the quality of the lumber. The panelized system turned out to be great for us because we did the labor ourselves. We were able to set the floor deck in one weekend, then set all of the wall panels the following weekend. The way the wall panels were placed around the floor deck maximized our efficiency. The deliveries were all on time and the drivers courteous. Overall, the process you took us through was professional, and you did everything you said you would. Steve was always available to answer our questions. We appreciate that you cared enough to visit our project, even long after the Hamilton material package was delivered. We look forward to recommending Hamilton...

Friday Floor Plans

You've decided you want to design and build your own custom home and like most prospective home owners, you have a vision of what your "dream home" would be like. With so many elements to consider when designing your own home, let the Hamilton team help you from start to finish and beyond.  So, how can you be sure your dream will become your reality? First, you can look at homes in the area in which you will be building your custom home. Do you see a common style throughout the homes that you'd like to mirror or do you prefer something entirely different? Then, look for open house signs and advertisements. Visiting homes is one of the best ways to determine what features you like and dislike.  Secondly, take photos of what appeals to you. After viewing dozens of houses, magazine after magazine, or searching online plans, there is no better way to recall what you may have liked than a photograph. It may have been the exterior color, the entry door, the interior t...
