Our History<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n

Jonathan Wright, Founder and Senior Advisor of Wright Builders, Inc., was a member of the first graduating class at Hampshire College in 1970. He enjoyed the quality of life in the Pioneer Valley so much that he decided to stay and raise his family here. Mark Ledwell joined the company as Executive Vice President in 2000, after 15 years as a general contractor in the Valley and is now Co-Principal and President. Together, Jonathan and Mark have built a team of skilled professionals who consistently deliver the finest quality construction, on time and on budget; the very best the area has to offer.<\/p>\n

A Word About Planning<\/h2>\n

No matter what time of year it is, think ahead! <\/strong>For spring, start planning in the fall. For a fall start, start planning in the spring or even earlier. You will need time without undue pressure to make decisions and selections. A good project takes time to plan, design, cost out, detail, permit and execute. Let’s talk today!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your Architect or Our Designers<\/em><\/h2>\n

We are proud of our long collaboration with many fine architects in the region, and will be glad to recommend various talented professionals for your design needs. The talented independent design partners who often work with us can also provide all the structural information and engineering typically required for a variety of residential projects, including new net zero ready homes.<\/p>\n

Leaders in Green Building & Energy Conservation<\/h2>\n

The ENERGY STAR Partner<\/strong><\/a> designation means that our building methods, technology, and use of materials meet or exceed Federal standards. In fact, we have been at the forefront of energy conservation, passive and active solar designs, and indoor air quality initiatives for our entire history.<\/p>\n

We, like you, are concerned that the materials, methods and implication of our choices do not take too high a toll on the environment. That’s why we work to stay current with new materials that utilize recycled components, and why we recycle more than 80% of our waste from the construction process.<\/p>\n

Accessibility Solutions<\/h2>\n

Access for people with disabilities has been integral to our work for many years. We are experienced at providing both private and public facilities for people with disabilities, and can show you ways to ensure that living in the home is quite possible even when mobility is reduced, or particular resources are needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>
