Norris Farm House 

Here are pictures of our new house taken as it was being built by Tony and Guy Boils in 2003.
Tony and Guy did an excellent job for us. They began work on April 8th and finished their part of the construction on September 15th. They were easy to work with, listened to our requests, built our house the way we wanted it built and were extremely polite. Their crew exhibited the same politeness and desire to please as the Boils. I have nothing but good things to say for their construction of our home.

Thanks to Tony and Guy Boils!
