Town House Siding 

This home was in need of an upgrade!
We surrounded the whole house with new, durable vinyl siding. This home is now ready for many more years of New York weather and it is looking like new!

We were pleased with the work Williamson Building and Remodeling did for us. They were prompt in getting us the estimate we requested and in coming to do the work when scheduled. They price quoted was what they charged. They were careful to clean up and take away left over materials. We would use them again.”

Some of our most exciting news from October! We recently took on a painting job for the national television show “Restaurant Impossible”. We really enjoyed teaming up with Robert and Tom and seeing the behind the scenes of the show.  We aren’t able to share any pictures of the finished work yet, but as soon as the episode is out we will let you know. We can’t wait for you to see it!!

Hello Friends and Family! 

Fall is in the air and we are trying to get our outdoor work finished up before the cold weather really sets in. Fall is that perfect time of year when its not too hot or too cold to be outside and we have plenty of work to keep us busy for these few short months.

Pictured above is one of the many stairways we constructed recently. The lake life is a great life, but the steep bank leading from the road to the shore needs to be safe and easy to navigate. A set of stairs can look simple when it is all completed but building them is not as easy as it looks. The process of building on a bank has its own set of challenges, but our team tackles these projects like pro’s, and that is exactly what they are. 

Before and After! 

New Addition.

Check out these before and after pictures of this new addition!
This was a fun job to work on. Not only did we add new living space to this home, but we also updated the siding and trim on the entire exterior. The added space and new siding brings so much class and character to this otherwise unnoticeable cottage.

Hello all! 

Our summer has been full of small and large jobs as well as great home owners and fun family picnics. As these long warm days come to an end we are hanging on to all the great memories.

The picture above shows a home we have been working on this past year. We purchased it in December 2019 and after all the legalities were taken care of got to work in early January. This was a great project to have this summer as it was a place to keep our crews busy between their other jobs, and although it took 9 months to bring it to completion the the total labor from start to finish was only 11 weeks. We are really pleased with how it all turned out and will begin renting it soon. Something we value as a company is our community, having made this physical change to a place in our town brings a cleaner look to the area and value to the surrounding homes as well. This was a great endeavor for us and we really hope you enjoy seeing it come to life!

Hello friends and neighbors! 

We have been quite busy on these warm summer days completing a lot of exterior jobs, installing new siding on a home or building an entire new addition!

The picture above shows a home with a brand new shingle roof. It is important to keep the exterior of your home in good shape, without a good exterior the condition and quality of the structure and interior of your home is compromised. We really enjoy helping our customers bring the value of their home up. We are currently planing our interior work over the winter months, so if you have a project in mind let us know! 

Before and After! 

New siding and second story porch.

This was a fun exterior remodel to work on. This small lake cottage needed a little updating, and now it looks so charming! We put on all new siding which is helping to keep the building from the weather, we then added a small second story porch. This porch is overlooking the lake and makes the entire home look just a little more extravagant. Finally we installed a new pressure treated stairway coming down from the road in the back of the house. After all these updates this home has a whole new look.  Check it out!

The team from Williamson Building and Remodeling, L.L.C. provided us with a rapid response and estimate. They listened to our ideas then shared their expertise and knowledge towards finishing the project. From beginning to end they provided outstanding service. We will use them again and highly recommend them to others.

Hello friends and neighbors! 

What a month it has been! Getting back to work and the warm weather has kept us busy and we are excited to show you what we have been up to!

The picture above shows our team in front of a very large home that has been restored. They went up and replaced all of the old windows with brand new, fully insulated windows. This is going to make all the difference for these homeowners as they host large groups of guests throughout the year. We are so excited to see their quality of life improve! This project is special in the fact that all of our team members volunteered their time to show up to work. We are so proud to have the team that we do, these guys go above and beyond! We like to give back to our community and this is one way that we can do that. Everyone gets in on it and it becomes a fun day where we can all work together to give to someone else.

New siding and shingles.

We Love to see a dramatic transformation and this before and after is just that. We tore off all the old siding and roofing on this charming little home and installed all new vinyl siding and shingles. This is a satisfying upgrade, not only because it looks dramatically better, but also because it is now safe from all the weather. Check it out!

“We would highly recommend Williamson’s Building and Remodeling, LLC for any work you need done. They not only showed up when they said they would, but called us when they were going to be later than expected. Not only was the work done neatly, but in a timely manner. All the young men that did the work for us remodeling our bathroom were pleasant, efficient and hard workers.”

New outdoor stairway!

With Spring here and Summer coming fast it was time for an update on this stairway as trips to the lake are quickly becoming a regular occurrence. Here we used pressure treated lumber for the frame and spindles and MoistureShield composite decking for the railing, steps and landings.

 “WBR did 2 projects for me: They put an addition on my cottage, as well as a new deck and it went well.  They called me back, they showed up when they said they would and the project started and completed right when they said it would.  Cottage renovations usually involve some unexpected surprises & expenses as the project progresses, but they were able to work thru them and stay true to the quote they gave me.  The price was fair and the workmanship was great.”
