Serving Richmond, Vermont

General Contractor in Richmond, Vermont

Richmond sits in the Winooski River valley with a village at its centre and the Round Church down the road, a building that's stood since 1813. I'm Tim Chila, and I've spent over 50 years working on Vermont houses of every age.

What We Do

Working in the Winooski Valley

Richmond is a village town in the river valley, with Jonesville out along the road toward Bolton and homes scattered up the hillsides between. The Old Round Church has stood here since 1813, which tells you something about how long people have been building in this valley and how well the good work holds up.

The housing runs accordingly, from genuinely old village homes through mid-century houses to newer builds on land further out. Valley and hillside properties bring their own practical questions: drainage, how a site sits, and access on the steeper lots. Those are worth sorting before a build or an addition starts rather than after.

We work throughout Richmond and out to Jonesville, on everything from a repair to a full renovation or a build from the ground up. You get an honest read on the site, an open-book estimate, and one person accountable for the job.
