We want to thank you for a job well done We realize doing work on a 50+ year old structure that started out as a hunting cottage — that many surprises were in-store and when you go to repair one item another issue pops up. We want to thank you for your honesty and your ability to handle whatever that old house threw at you. We appreciated the picture updates and your explanations on why different items needed to be accomplished to make the cottage safe and secure.
We were most appreciative of your ability to work with us, being located in another state while the work was being done, could have been difficult, but you made it seamless Thank you again and we would not hesitate using your company in the future.
~ Mary-Alice and Craig, Georges Mills Road
My wife and I found Frank and his crew to be very professional. They listened and offered good information and viable options to our questions and concerns. They followed through with all aspects of the plan and completed all work in a timely manner. They kept the work site clean and safe. They were always willing to answer our questions clearly and thoroughly.
Frank in particular was easy to contact and he was always willing and quick to respond to our calls. Frank in fact responded and took care of a problem that was related to a warranty on a door even after he had been paid in full. Overall, I recommend Frank Wiggins Construction without reservation.
Well done. Thank you.
~ Herb, Croydon
Working with Frank was great! We had an idea nd sketch of what we wanted to build, Frank took our 'sketch' and made suggestions and alterations. The house he designed and built is incredible — far, far superior to what we ever imagined. Fred, Tony, and the crew were great and with their help and suggestions we came in under budget. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Frank and his crew to anyone.
~ Neil Turton, TALL Venture Properties, LLC
Frank Wiggins has done extensive work on our house in Georges Mills, NH and we have been extremely pleased with the results. Frank has given us very valuable advice about what work needed to be done, and equally importantly, what did not have to be done. Work is done in a timely fashion and bills are in line with estimates. I recommend Frank without reservation and I would be glad to answer any questions that anyone has.
~ Bill, Lake Sunapee, NH
Frank Wiggins was recommended to us by our next door neighbor, who has known him for many years. Frank took on our project when other contractors we had interviewed would not return our calls (despite OUR calling them back several times).
From the very beginning, Frank and his crew were polite and honest about the time and costs involved, realistically juxtaposing our desires with practical solutions. We could not have been happier with his crew, working on our project. They arrived on time every day, in the rain, the heat, and once or twice, in the snow, worked hard and thoughtfully all day and cleaned up the work site, as much as possible, each day. They were very knowledgeable and consulted us on design aspects, giving expert advice on changes whenever something we had proposed was, perhaps, not going to look right or work well. They used high quality materials and made excellent recommendations of "maintenance free" options for various areas within the project. THEY DID NOT CUT CORNERS !
We are extremely pleased with the out come and LOVE the new additions to our home. We will use Frank Wiggins Construction again and would highly recommend them to anyone in the New London / Mount Sunapee / Claremont area. Frank's motto is so true : Quality doesn't cost, it pays.
Thank you Frank and crew for a job well done.
Sincerely,
~ Bill and Diana, Rand Pond, NH
Regarding Frank Wiggins Construction, I would without any hesitation recommend this company to work on your project. Frank is an honest man who will not hesitate to tell you when something can/cannot be done or if something is changed, he will give you a good estimate to how much the change will add to the costs. He will not make any changes without consulting you. He will work at trying to stay within your budget.
I kept making changes through my project but I never went forward without knowing how much the changes were going to cost me. Frank's employees are very skilled and also very neat. We never had a problem with errant nails in the driveway.
As for the work itself I have been told by others in the trades what a great job Wiggins Construction did on my house. If you want to see my house ask Frank and he will walk you through. As for completion time, our project took place during a rough winter but Wiggins Construction powered through the snow completing our project in the time frame that was expected!
~ Michele and Frank, Otter Pond, NH
Wiggins Construction was the general contractor for a rather large roof replacement and repair at our house. The problem was extensive roof rot and, as we found later, a rotten wall, so the scope included analysis of the problem, tear out of the existing shingles and insulation, and installation of a new, vented roof system. The wall repair included bracing of the roof it supported and reframing and insulating the wall.
During the construction, which lasted 6 weeks, the workman were prompt, professional and the scope included management of a subcontractor who installed the new shingles. Billing was completely documented and fair. I continue to be pleased with the work that was done and would highly recommend Frank Wiggins' company.
~ Andy and Betty, Grantham, NH
Thank you for your good work designing and building facilities to house our new branch office at 262 East Washington Road in Hillsborough. We appreciate your expertise, your timely work and your professionalism during the project.
I'm very happy to give Frank my highest recommendation, as a competent contractor who listens and responds well, who is caring and responsible, and who does high quality work. He remodeled our house in Hillsborough to our complete satisfaction, and at a reasonable cost. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 603-478-1730. I'm happy to expand on this.
Sincerely,
~ Roger and Susan, East Washington, NH
Dear Frank and crew,
Last week Frank stopped by and he ended the conversation with, "And then we will be done!". As he spoke a lump welled in the back of my throat and I felt quite disarmed as I hadn't anticipated such mixed feelings. You get used to people after seeing them every day for 6 months. Moreover, you all helped bring a dream, my dream, to life; you preserved what was best about our old house and further dramatically shaped it into the place we envisioned for our children and family life for years to come.
Thank you all ... thank you for sharing your time and talents with us. We appreciate your commitment to the project. Thank you for your insights and keeping focused on the outcome ... it is terrific and we are just so pleased!
Thank you and thank you again! We wish you all well!
Sincerely,
~ Scott and Marion, Scott and Marion
Working with you and your team has been a pleasure. You were very helpful to me in making decisions and respectful of my wishes to save the historic part of the cottage. The end result is lovely and retains the cottage look I wanted. When Spring arrives and the landscaping and lattice work completed, please bring your team over to see the results of their hard work. Many thanks.
~ Avis
We are very satisfied with our experience with Frank Wiggins Construction. His entire team is knowledgeable, approachable, and very professional. We get weekly updates with pictures. If there are any changes or work delays, Frank will promptly contact us. He listens to our concerns and suggestions and gives good advice. We can always reach him easily with any questions or concerns. His team works well together and they pay attention to details. The work site is kept clean and orderly. We have no hesitation in using Frank Wiggins Construction again for any further remodeling.
~ Kay, Newbury, NH
We were very pleased with the services provided by Frank Wiggins Construction. We found their employees to be knowledgeable, polite and respectful of us and our property (ie: cleaning up at the end of a work day). Frank's estimate of job costs were always fair and reasonable; any additional costs due to unknown conditions (ie: wood rot, change of plans) were openly discussed and their estimate(s) stayed true to plans/agreement. Wiggins Construction employees were always ready to offer their suggestions/opinions if asked or if there was a better alternative to completing a project or task.
My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend this business to anyone considering new construction, rebuilding/remodeling or simple additions.
~ George and Linda, Sunapee View Bed & Breakfast
Our experience with Frank Wiggins Construction was entirely positive. From project design to final clean-up, Frank and his crew were professional, efficient, responsive and cordial. We were consistently informed about what to expect every step of the way in all aspects of the project! Our questions, concerns and requests were graciously received; and our expectations were fully satisfied.
We were especially pleased with the craftsmanship of the work performed and the careful attention to detail shown by all parties who worked at our home. Frank Wiggins Construction's reputation as a first rate firm is certainly well deserved and we would enthusiastically recommend it to anyone who is seeking the services of a building contractor.

Hi Frank,
Linda and I want to thank you for taking on our deck project this summer. As always you know just what is needed and who to do the work, the crew was terrific. It was a pleasure to see you and to work with you again.
Take care,
Roger and Linda

Frank (or Fuzzy!) is so easy to work with - good natured, smiling, and a good listener. He exceeded our expectations by always replying promptly and following through on the plan. We would definitely work with him and his team again.
~ Elizabeth and Stephane
We were happy we hired Frank Wiggins Construction for our extensive remodeling of an older home. He always made himself available to us when we had questions about different options and has experienced people on board for construction and every other portion of the job – from insulation and roofing, to plumbing and electric. There was always a good sense that he genuinely cared about things being done right and making us happy!
~ Terry, New London, NH
We purchased a home in Wilmot that needed some work done on the deck due to poor design and neglect. We had concerns, that turned out to be valid, that there might also be more damage that we could not see.
Frank and Co came to the rescue. They took a conservative approach, at first, to determine what exactly needed to be repaired and after finding significant rot where the deck met the house went into 'make it right' mode. I have no doubt that had they just 'fixed the deck' and not investigated further I would have been dealing with very expensive damage issues (sagging floors, etc) within the next few years.
Knowing that we had a limited budget Frank also made sure we did not run to far over without sacrificing quality of work. The repairs left us with the peace of mind that our house is whole again and safe from further damage and our deck now looks amazing.
~ Jason, Wilmot, NH
We hired Wiggins Construction to do a complete renovation of our lake house because they came with very high recommendations from past customers, appeared to be good listeners, talked honestly about costs and were local. After working with them for over a year, we now can say we absolutely made the right choice. They were professional and the quality of their work was top notch. They were dependable, working every day even in some frigidly cold weather. They were always open to discussing alternatives and the impact on project cost. The on-site project team was diligent, courteous, proficient, friendly and always willing to lend a helping hand to do something else if we needed it. In the end, we cannot express in any stronger manner how completely satisfied we are with our choice for contractor and our newly renovated home.
~ Anthony and Margit, Newbury, NH
Frank Wiggins Construction completed two projects for us. The firm has my most enthusiastic recommendation.
The first involved replacement of a triple window set in a bay. The window had been incorrectly installed by somebody else. It and the surround were extensively rotted. Frank Wiggins and his team developed a plan to rebuild the area. The result was of the highest quality, both in materials and, especially, in the workmanship. The perfect joining of the component parts is beautiful to behold, both inside and outside. We often admire it. The window is sturdy and solid, draft-free, and an asset to the house.
Our other project involved construction of a new deck accessible from the master bedroom. It is of the same quality as the window in that it is absolutely sturdy and firmly situated. The workmanship is of the same high quality. It has added value to the house.
~ Linda
Linda and I are always pleased to say a good word about Frank. He is a great guy and his team does such good work for us. Thanks for giving us a chance to praise Frank. He has been a lifesaver for our family for many years. When we have a house problem, our first instinct is to call him. We like him and we trust his judgment. Frank's team has shingled our home, fixed our deck, replaced skylight windows, and helped replace insulation. We look forward to having Frank do more work for us this coming year. We know with Frank Wiggins, any job will be done right.
Linda and I want to thank you for taking on our deck project this summer. As always you know just what is needed and who to do the work, the crew was terrific. It was a pleasure to see you and to work with you again.
Take care,

We would like to enthusiastically recommend Frank Wiggins Construction to everyone! Although what we wanted to do was a relatively small job -- replacing two beams, a supporting post, and part of a wall with one larger beam that would span the whole space, opening up our living/dining area -– Frank gave it careful attention, explaining various options and then checking back to make sure that we were happy with the work that was being done. In fact we were so happy with the quality of the work that we added in a number of extras –- all of which really enhanced our new more open space.
Amazingly, even with all the add-ons, the final cost was less than the original estimate. Frank’s crew was punctual, courteous, and meticulous. Communication throughout the project was excellent. This was an extremely positive experience, from start to finish, and we are very pleased with the results.
Great job. We really like what you did on our family room.
~ David and MaryJane, Springfield, NH
In addition to quality work at a fair price, Frank was very easy to work with. I have recommended Wiggins Construction to a friend who has expressed his satisfaction as well.
~ Marty, New London, NH
We were pleased with all aspects of the construction work performed by Wiggins & Co. The workmen were on time, neat, courteous and took a great deal of pride in their work. The overall experience was excellent, including timely and accurate billing.
