SERVICES

As a real third generation company we are able to offer extensive experience in all aspects of the construction process. Mike, our owner, has run this company since he was 19 years old. Click here to read Mike’s bio. 3rd Generation’s most significant differentiator is the breadth of construction disciplines that we have developed and are able to provide in-house, alongside our management expertise.

This breadth of in-house disciplines proved significant efficiencies, by eliminating the coordination of multiple sub-contractors, reducing the management oversight of those sub-contractors, and reducing the timing constraint, delays and costs commonly associated with that coordination. We have also developed long-standing relationships with a selection of dedicated subs, in the event that they are needed.

We serve Ulster County NY & Dutchess County NY, with numerous projects in Woodstock NY, Bearsville NY, Saugerties NY, Glasco NY, Kingston NY, Hunter NY and beyond.

We provide comprehensive excavation, sitework, and paving services tailored to your project requirements. With our skilled crew and advanced machinery, we handle everything from trenching and septic system installation to road construction and blacktop repair. Our expertise extends to specialized features such as underground parking, swimming pools, and complex foundation work in high-density urban settings.

We take immense pride in our concrete work, focusing on precision from formwork to the final finishing touches. Our dedicated team excels in every aspect of concrete installation, from laying the structural foundations of a building to achieving flawless polished finishes. We understand the critical importance of attention to detail in concrete work, ensuring not only structural integrity and accuracy but also exquisite aesthetic appeal.

Framing stands as the cornerstone of durability and design in every building project. Our skilled team recognizes the integral role framing plays and is adept at delivering both standard and custom framing solutions to meet any architectural vision. Whether it’s crafting basic framing structures or implementing intricate techniques to accommodate unique designs and vaulted ceilings, we approach each project with precision and superior craftsmanship. Similarly, siding is a transformative element that can redefine the aesthetic and character of any home. Our team specializes in the installation of a wide range of siding options, from versatile vinyl to meticulously crafted custom milled wood. We prioritize achieving flawless finishes while integrating cutting-edge techniques grounded in building science. Our approach emphasizes the importance of vapor barriers, seals, and weather-resistant joints to safeguard the building envelope comprehensively.

Our certified team specializes in the installation of mechanical systems that range from essential plumbing and electrical work to advanced features such as smart home technology, energy-efficient solutions, and green equipment. We pride ourselves on delivering luxury amenities including radiant floor heating, high-performance HVAC systems, and sophisticated lighting and audiovisual setups. With our expertise and dedication, we ensure that every aspect of your mechanical systems meets the highest standards of functionality, efficiency and comfort.

For drywall installation and finishing, we tailor our approach to meet the unique needs of each project and client. Specializing in level 3-5 finishes, expert plaster work, and a variety of textures, we accommodate even the most creative design visions.

Finish carpentry is the final touch that elevates any construction project. From simple interior trim installations to intricate multi-stage trim work and custom wood features, we bring any vision to life with great attention to detail.

With specialized experience in log and timber-framed homes, we handle complex joinery for large framing components with ease. Our in-house capabilities extend to crafting precise and creative stair and railing systems, ensuring every detail is executed with accuracy.

Our finish carpenters possess a diverse range of skills that extend beyond on-site work to include off-site fabrication of custom cabinetry and millwork. With our fully equipped wood shop, we have the capacity to accommodate virtually any project.

We thrive on the creative process involved in crafting finish work, built-in cabinetry, and unique feature pieces. From concept to completion, we take pride in delivering custom cabinetry and millwork solutions that reflect our commitment to excellence.
