New Home Construction in Northern New Jersey
A Shapiro Commitment To Excellence
The Shapiro Family believes that your custom home should reflect you and not your builder. For over 2 decades our family owned company has designed and built small homes, large homes, contemporary homes, and traditional homes, ranging in size from 2,500 square feet on the top two floors to over 10,000 square feet on the top two floors.
For Today & Tomorrow
We believe your custom home should reflect your lifestyle today and anticipate your lifestyle for tomorrow. We work with our clients to help them clarify their dreams and anticipate future needs so that the investment made in a custom home today will continue to benefit well into the future. We do this by listening and understanding to how you live, what inspires you and how long you plan to stay in your custom home. We do this through the actual design of the home, the layout of the rooms, and the sizes of rooms, halls and entryways. We do this by the careful selection of the construction materials using those materials that have longevity, are energy efficient (see our Green Building page), and are the best materials given your budget. We do this by understanding the property selected and how to best marry the land with the home so that curb appeal is maximized, outdoor living spaces are accommodated and views from windows are optimized. And finally, we do this by understanding your budget and the best way to incorporate your dreams and ideas into that budget.
Designed & Built to Last
As housing design, construction and finish materials improve, and the market itself ebbs and flows, certain design features and materials become popular and will remain. Others are an instant hit that fade overnight. For Example: Remember your mom’ harvest gold kitchen? Less than a decade later, gold was out and white was in. In the 1980’s, having a two car garage was all the rage. Families today have 3 and 4 cars. If you only have a 2 car garage who gets to use it?
Staying abreast of the ever-changing products, building methods, building codes, and design trends is our passion. We believe that a home built today should be as energy efficient (Green) and universally designed as possible. With our vast years of experience, we will help you maximize the best of these products and methods, help you to avoid design problems that cannot be fixed and, if your really love Harvest Gold materials, work them in such away to make them easy to change when you fall in love with Avocado Green.
Although we design almost everything we build, we will also work with you and your architect to make sure that your custom home meets your needs today and tomorrow, your budget and your dreams.
