Great experience. Project results were exactly what we hoped for.
We are so lucky that we worked with Foremost Builders for our building project. Foremost Builders was an excellent partner all through the design and construction process. It was clear that every employee not only had significant construction experience and an admirable work ethic, but also were people of the highest integrity. Each person was kind, compassionate, and patient with us. We do not believe that we would have had a better experience with another building firm.
For instance, Foremost Builders worked with us to minimize the time our family needed to move out of the house during construction. From day one, they prioritized our ability to live in our space through construction, even moving our dishwasher into our temporary basement kitchen. This vastly reduced the stress associated with small schedule changes. The job site was kept incredibly clean which further made living in a construction zone doable for our family of four.
Complex building projects often have unavoidable surprises, but we were fortunate to have an experienced and knowledgeable partner in Foremost Builders. As in any partnership, communication skills played a key role in navigating the unexpected. Foremost Builders was incredibly responsive and met challenges head on. Through out the process, they were trustworthy and collaborative.
From an outside perspective, Foremost Builders has built a company culture where everyone is treated with respect. With this value at its foundation, Foremost is then able to deliver an exceptional experience where a culture of safety, careful communication, and continuous improvement is baked into every interaction whether with a client, a subcontractor, or a building inspector. Vendors through out our community shared with us their positive experience working with Foremost and now we’ve lived through it ourselves.
Foremost gave us a house we hope to call home for a long time. Thank you!
Good process and team. Do quality work and stand behind it
First class work by true professionals.
I would recommend Foremost to anyone considering remodeling.
.
From the start of design to the very last day of construction we felt like we were in safe hands. The entire Foremost team was exceptional and we will be coming back to them far into the future for our remodeling needs. I would suggest Foremost to anyone in the Upper Valley looking to get high quality work done with folks they can trust.
I would recommend Foremost Builders to a friend. In this recommendation, I would mention the issues I had that are listed below.
The media room looks exactly the way I imagined it would.
Amazing
Excellent business model made the process easy to navigate. Outstanding work with very skilled workers. The final product is fantastic.
Definitely. From the initial discussions and throughout the project, I fully trusted that the contracted work would be of outstanding quality and that Foremost would stand behind their name.
A bath remodel was the second project that Foremost has undertaken with me. As before, from design to construction to punch list, all aspects were completed in a professional and collaborative fashion. Two major unanticipated problems during construction were quickly resolved to my complete satisfaction and at reasonable cost. Kelsey, once again, started by eliciting a thorough understanding of what I wanted in the finished renovation and assisted me in determining how to achieve it while saving me from myself occasionally and suggesting features/equipment that I was not aware of. Jon executed beautifully, and also consulted me on construction details that I might want to consider. Trade partners were professional and skilled. The small number of punch list items was corrected expeditiously and to my complete satisfaction.
Highly recommended in all aspects of a remodeling project.
Very easy to work with. Cost is transparent and managed throughout the project. Makes sure everything is done properly. Foremost is the builder to work with for a low stress, high quality build.
All work was done well and as promised. We are very pleased with our new sunroom and deck.
Foremost provided excellent service. The quality of the work is exceptional. Much attention was given to all phases of the process from design to demo to building. They always made sure that our new kitchen would be what we wanted and would reflect our needs and lifestyle.
The outstanding design and build processes resulted in a beautiful kitchen that clearly increases the value of our home.
Recognized Excellence - Kelsey was extremely helpful in fulfilling our vision for our new kitchen. His relationships with local vendors ensured that products were of very high quality and were available on time. The professional, detailed plans removed any guesswork from the build process.

I was completing this project via long distance, so I had family and friends overviewing the project. My family and friends were impressed with them and have asked me for contact information, so they can use them. I am very happy with the final result and the entire process. Although it was long distance, they had excellent communication and I knew what was going on. It was easier than I expected.
Recognized Excellence - I would like to recognize Dave, Lee, Travis, and Kelsey for their exceptional service.
Improvement Suggestion - I do not have any suggestions. They were amazing. Although I was completing the project via long distance, I knew what was going on. If something occurred, which caused a delay, they would notify me and provide a new timeline. They gave great service and helped. They provided pictures on a regular basis. Everyone that would check on the project for me was impressed with the workmanship and professionalism.
