"Best builder in the Berkshires" - Marja Tepper
“We commissioned James Weber to be the General Contractor on a “Re-Construction project..” We came to Jim with a big dream and a mediocre budget. Jim came forward and stewarded our project as, we believe, no other G.C could have. Jim Weber and his J.W Construction crew created an extraordinary home for us that not only is a dwelling but an “Arts and Crafts” style work of art. His craftsmanship is unsurpassed, his artistic eye for design and detail, outstanding….and he was able to keep the project moving in a timely fashion and within a reasonable budget.” -Cynthia and Jeff Caminiti, Hurlburt Road Great Barrington, MA
“Jim, thank you so much for sharing your skills, talent and patience with us! We really appreciate how much you have done to make this house special and how much of yourself you put into your work. …” -Debra and Mark Hoffman, Becket MA

“I highly, confidently and enthusiastically recommend Mr. Weber. Jim became the ongoing designer on the job, as well as a competent overseer of one of the most pleasant and hardworking crews we could have wanted at the School…..For an overview, the scope of Jim’s work at Interlaken included: demolition, large partition removals; building and furnishing new offices consistent with historic style and tone of the building—….restoration of the historic theater stage and surround; addressing of sound attenuation;moving and reinstallation of heavy commercial equipment; design and installation of new staff kitchen;and complete handling of all installation, painting, wiring, and plumbing needs…….perhaps most encouraging of all was, that not only did the work get done, done beautifully and done on budget, but throughout, Jim’s positive, professional, service oriented demeanor, never wavered….”
