Gersh is an extremely thorough and competent contractor. He was upfront and honest from the start. His designer worked with us efficiently through emails, and we came up with a perfect design. Gersh kept us informed every step of the way through permit process, foundation, framing, etc. If any issue came up, he contacted us immediately and we worked through it. This was a blessing as we lived out of state. Every one of his subcontractors are masters of their craft. We never had to worry about poor construction.
Our home, garage, and barn are beautiful and we couldn't be happier. Thank you Gersh.

Gersh built our home in 2016 and two years later we are still in awe every time we open the door and step inside. Gersh's attention to detail are what make his builds stand out from the rest for years after they're done. Two years later and it feels like we just moved in. He has decades of experience building custom homes and it definitely shows. Just ask any of his former customers. My wife and I were able to take a peek at other homes Gersh had built to see the quality and the reactions we got from his former customers were amazing. They were so impressed with his work and so excited for us to have Gersh build our home. That type of experience is definitely what you what when picking a contractor.

When my wife and I started researching builders to build our dream home, we found that there are a number of builders to choose from. I hope this review provides you with some insights on why Gersh is an excellent choice.

First off, Gersh. You will not meet a more transparent and genuine person. Gersh provided my wife and I with his insight and opinions based on a lifetime of building experience. He also had the guts to express to us when he thought we might be heading in the wrong direction on something. Building a home is a process, don't fool yourself. Gersh made the process as simple and straightforward as it could have been. From meeting with the bank to ascertain construction financing to taking drawings and ideas and evolving them into building plans within budget, Gersh made it easy. Being in the construction industry for the past twenty years myself, I absolutely appreciated the transparency in the numbers and knew from the moment the foundation was poured until the final cleaning of the project. We were kept up to date and knew exactly where our budget was. IMPORTANT NOTE: There are builders out there who agree to an original budget only to surprise homeowners with a final supplement and/or change order charge. While our project did go over budget, it was well explained in advance and was the doing of some small upgrades my wife and I made along the way.

Another important aspect of a Salisbury Home is the building quality of the project. Gersh builds homes to his standards, and they are very high. Before going with Gersh I investigated a number of current builds he was completing, as well as, spoke with past clients he had completed projects for. All were impressed by the quality of the homes. To illustrate some items I noticed when I looked at homes he was constructing (and were done in our home) I will provide you with four examples:
1) Gersh uses 2” x 6” stud framing (instead of conventional 2” x 4” studs). This is important because it reduces house flexion and makes for a more solid building.
2) Gersh uses a combination of spray foam insulation and batt insulation on all framed walls. This makes a superior building envelope which increases the heating and cooling efficiency and makes for great soundproofing.
3) Gersh uses copper fittings on all water supply lines. This greatly reduces the chance for catastrophic supply line failures. (i.e.: water losses)
4) Gersh maximizes space and also designs many open concept, complex houses. This eliminates hallways and increases sightlines. We love how we were able to maximize the sightlines in our design.

Finally, my wife and are elated that we went with Salisbury Homes. Gersh made the process as painless and enjoyable as could be. The best compliment I can pay Gersh and his production crews is that my wife and I are often in awe that we have a home that not only lived up to our expectations, but far exceeded them. If you want any further information, please don’t hesitate to ask Gersh how to get in touch with us.
