We know the homes here, the historic colonials, the newer developments, the well-kept village houses, and we know what each one needs to live better without losing what makes it special. We also know the townships, the approval boards, and the way these neighborhoods hold their value, which keeps your project moving and your investment sound.

Words From Our Clients

"Gary redid two rooms for us. Replaced the Sheetrock, leveled the floors, and installed laminate. The worker he used put in long days and was very professional. They did a great job, and I highly recommend them." 

Patrick W.

"Gary has just finished a renovation of our first floor. His crew worked hard every day and gave us amazing results. He arrived when he said he would and completed what he promised. In a world where contractors don’t show up or don’t deliver, I can highly recommend Houghton Contracting for a successful project."

Bryan A.

"Gary just finished a job at our house and we could not be happier! They arrived on time each morning, cleaned up before leaving and were more professional than any contractor we’ve ever used. Quote was impressive as we had two others along Houghton Contracting. Materials used were better quality than what other two were going to use and for less money. They didn’t even charge for travel time! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work. No doubt in my mind!!"

Michele M.

"Gary and his team has taken on a huge renovation job that included gutting most of my house, replacing electrical, insulation, drywall, painting, finishing floors, kitchen renovations and building me a laundry room…you name it Houghton Contracting has done it! Every step of this project has been done so well and I couldn’t be more pleased. I would recommend Houghton Contracting to anyone who is looking to beautify their home!"

Maggie M.

 

Great experience. Needed a small job done and within a week of talking with Gary, the job was scheduled and completed. Could not ask for a better experience. 

Ian L.

"I called Gary for an estimate to fix out deteriorating detached garage. He came the same day to provide an estimate and within a week our garage was fixed. Although the project took a half-day longer than expected, Gary honored his original estimate. I am very happy with the quality of work and would recommend Houghton Contracting."
