Pristine Builders
Pristine has an excellent reputation building in the Stowe, Morrisville, Waterbury, and surrounding areas.
A tight-knit team of skilled carpenters with a mix of talented new carpenters in the industry, along with the expertise of senior leadership ranging from 20 to over 30 years of experience.
We carry multiple trades degrees and certifications while being current on new technology in the industry. We bring craftsmanship, reliability, and pride to every project. Our crew blends seasoned expertise with fresh perspective, allowing us to tackle everything from precision finish work to large-scale framing with confidence and care.
What truly sets us apart is our culture. We’re builders who value family, the outdoors, and the camaraderie that comes from working hard together. When we’re not on the job site, you’ll find us snowboarding, camping, golfing, hunting, freshwater and saltwater fishing, four-wheeling, enjoying music, baseball, football, or spending time with the people who matter most. We have a mix of generational builders who started building with their families to eager new tradesmen who take pride in the homes they build. We also give a nod to our veterans and appreciate their service.
Every year, we keep our tradition alive with an annual snowboard trip, social gatherings, and other outdoor events, a reminder that great work comes from great teamwork, and that the best crews are built on trust, shared experiences, and a love for what we do.

“I hired Pristine Builders to rebuild our camp on Lake Elmore, and I honestly can't say enough good things about them. What impressed me most was that Leo designed the whole thing from scratch, with no formal plans, and somehow managed to create something more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. That takes real vision and craftsmanship.
Throughout the entire process, Leo was a pleasure to work with. Communication was easy and consistent; he kept us in the loop, answered questions promptly, and never left us wondering what was happening. His crew was equally great: professional, hardworking, and clearly proud of their work.
The finished camp is everything we hoped for and more. If you're looking for a builder in the Lamoille County area who can take your vision and run with it, or even build one from the ground up with no plans, look no further. Highly recommend!”
