Owner's Review / Testimonial:
Gilmore Building Company, Inc. is a professionally run company founded by Eric Gilmore. He has a Master's Degree in Construction Management from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and has a Civil Engineering background from Syracuse University.
Given the new, more challenging building codes in New England for energy efficient homes, Eric is one of the few builders I have interviewed who has kept up with the latest building technologies. The custom home Eric is building for me is a classic design with custom trim, best practice in energy efficiency using the latest hybrid insulation techniques, new Geothermal heat pumps using coaxial wells, hydronic snow melt, home automation, high end internet connectivity, and security, robust electrical design with backup generator.
Eric works well with top building architects, engineers, landscape architects, and interior designers. The house design was done using computer-aided design (CAD) drawings, cut on computer milling machines (CNC) with great precision (panelized construction techniques). Building envelope is largely maintenance free using materials like mahogany trim, copper flashing, Zip wall, breathable construction, Advantech flooring (better moisture resistance and nailing benefits over plywood), Hardiplank siding, interior stone and quartz, and exterior stone work.
My main objective was to find a builder to construct a traditional/classic home with high technology amenities and advanced construction techniques. Eric is one of only a few builders I have found that could satisfy those objectives.
