"We enjoyed working with Peter for the complete renovation and expansion of our home. Our confidence in Peter was such that we chose to work on a "time plus materials" arrangement which saved us substantial sums from the competitive bids we received. Peter was timely in his effort, approachable and available as needed and innovative and patient as we made changes to the original design. But most of all Peter and his crew brought excellent workmanship and delightful company to our house ...

"... We spent much time discussing the need for custom work, use of natural materials, modern technology and integration of all elements. Peter Johnson understood the overall design and result we wished to achieve. His crew has a wonderful combination of skill and the concern of old-time craftsmen. Peter supervised each step and was able to work easily and constructively with the architect, engineers and landscape people to deliver the project as agreed. He continues to stand behind the work done.

Recently, we undertook a small project and went straight to Peter, because we were confident that he would deliver efficiently and effectively. We enjoy working with Peter Johnson Builders."

"When I had to choose between Peter and a well regarded custom local building company for the renovation of my home, I asked both for their references. When I contacted Peter’s references, they all called me back promptly, gave me glowing praise of his work, and told me to hire him immediately if he was available. One of the references that I spoke to even showed up at my office the next day to impress upon me that I needed to use him for my project! What I eventually discovered was that Peter’s list of "references" was actually a list of all of the clients he had ever worked with. In other words, there is no one with whom Peter works who is not completely and utterly pleased with the way he does business. And they all then turn into a virtual PR department for him! My experience with Peter was no different."

"Peter Johnson is a smart builder and a great craftsman. As part of our ecological approach, we introduced a number of unusual building systems such as structural insulated panels and prefabricated retaining walls and Peter met each challenge with great aplomb. Since Peter does not take on many projects at once, he spends a great deal of time at the job site overseeing the crew and subcontractors. This level of commitment is evident in each of his projects. Working with Peter Johnson has been a great pleasure."

Christopher Hays (Architect)

"We recommend Peter Johnson to anyone who is looking for a superior builder. He has completed several projects for us, and in each he has exhibited the highest level of craftsmanship and care. His diligence with respect to working within budgets and schedules is appreciated by our clients and we appreciate the patience and thoroughness with which he executes our often difficult details."

"Pete Johnson built our custom home in 1996. Our experience with him and his employees was very positive throughout the project. He is professional, quality-oriented, and a pleasure to work with. We would have no hesitation in recommending Peter Johnson to anyone considering building a new custom home or carrying out major renovations to an existing one."

R. and L. B.

"... The way you guided us through the building process was nothing short of fantastic. The weekly meetings were so very helpful in that we knew what was going on at any given moment. The different crews who worked with you were remarkable in that they came, did the job you had outlined, and left, making us one step closer to living in our blessed home. Thanks again for being such a strong, supportive contractor/friend."

C. and R. J.

"... As we were about to settle on a builder ... your name was suggested to us, and we decided, for that one last time, to act on a referral. From our conversations with you we were led to believe that you would be there at every step of the way to clarify and help us make informed decisions. We both felt that we had finally met the right person for the job, and a year later, I can say ... that all our expectations were met. Methodical, fair, honest, available, knowledgeable, straightforward, problem solver, and creative are all words that, in our opinion, best describe your business approach. In fact, we are both very grateful for the time, effort and expertise you have made available to us, and thank you for the positive experience we have had.

On a final note, we would like to please extend our thanks to your crew that you have so ably selected to help you accomplish such a thorough job."

"I’ve worked with Peter Johnson on several construction projects over the last few years, and each job has resulted in a happy client and beautiful, solid construction. I think that the most important qualities in a contractor that will ensure a successful project, whether it be an entire house, an addition, or a renovation, are communication skills and integrity. Peter Johnson has both in spades, in addition to excellent craftsmanship, flexibility, a good crew that has been with him for a long time, and a sense of humor (also essential). I recommend Peter without reservation for any residential project, large or small."

Ruth Ellen Outlaw (Architect)

"From the beginning, Peter was straightforward and responsive. He seemed to understand the delicate balance between limited budget and key design features. We utilized a commercial plan, because the interior gave us would allow us to live entirely on the ground floor, though we hated the original exterior. Peter rose to the challenge and quickly created a farmhouse look that fit beautifully into the meadow building site. Another key challenge met by Peter was maintaining sight lines to the mountains from every room in the house. Working with Mountain Lumber Co., the home utilizes heart pine for many floors and the entry door. This home truly fits in with the countryside. To this day, we have been able to count on Peter and his team for additional projects to continue to make our home our Dream House."

"After interviewing several contractors for a major renovation and addition to our newly purchased circa 1927 house, we elected to work with Peter Johnson Builders. We made the right choice. Not only was the quality of the workmanship superior but the job was done on time and at the estimated cost. Mr. Johnson and his team were on site every day, thoroughly professional, and welcomed discussion on any aspect of the renovation project. Not only did they build a beautiful addition but they were able to recreate the flavor and building materials to match the original structure. Visitors to our home are amazed when they are told which part of our house is the addition and what part is the original. We would not hesitate to use Peter Johnson Builders in the future and recommend him enthusiastically to anyone contemplating a major building or renovation project."

J. and N. L.

"Over the past years I have worked, as the architectural designer, with Peter Johnson on no fewer than four different building projects. We have worked together on new houses and small residential additions. Peter and his crew have always been wonderful to work with, straight-forward when solving problems, even tempered and quick to offer good solid suggestions when needed. His constuction is of the highest quality, his work sites are maintained in an orderly manner, and his projects have stayed on time and within budget. I have always enjoyed working with Peter and would hope to so do again."
