Experience
Matters
We are a leader in the Connecticut New Home Construction industry! We believe in old fashion values, a hard work ethic and quality craftsmanship. For over 50 years, the Carrier name and reputation have been trusted by thousands of satisfied homeowners. Together, the Carrier family offers the best home value in today’s economy!
Locally Owned & Operated
Do not be surprised if you find a Carrier family member living in your community, or if you bump into one at the local market. All By Carrier offices are local! Visit any new home site and you’re likely to find a family member carefully watching over the entire construction process.
Customer
Service
Our customer-focused approach allows us to better accommodate every homeowner’s needs. An important factor that differentiates us from other builders is our commitment to satisfying your every need, from the point of purchase and beyond.
Quality
The quality of construction is apparent from the ground up. From 2 x 6 exterior walls, engineered lumber and steel beams, you will see quality like no other. Every By Carrier home features up-to-date technology, careful construction practices and top-of-the-line building materials.
Industry-Leading
Five-Year Warranty
In addition to the Statutory Warranty provided in Connecticut with new home construction as well as manufacturer’s warranties, By Carrier offers an Industry-Leading Extended Five-Year Warranty on structural defects, roof leaks and water in the basement. This warranty is also transferable to any new homeowners within the five-year period.
Energy
Efficiency
By Carrier homes are built in compliance with Connecticut’s new energy conscious building codes. Additionally, advanced heating and cooling systems, improved windows and insulation techniques significantly reduce energy costs. By Carrier homes consume nearly half of the energy of today’s code built homes and one-third to one-quarter less than a home built prior to 1980. By Carrier homes consistently score a Five Star Plus on the HERS Index with an average score of 50, placing the efficiency of our homes above that of an Energy Star Qualified Home at a HERS Index reading of only 85. Energy efficiency is at the heart of the building process, rather than an afterthought. Energy efficient and green building materials are integrated starting at the foundation.
Design
Flexibility
By Carrier has improved room flow and design to accommodate the way we live today and satisfy the demand for open floor plans. More windows, open spaces, closets and storage areas, numerous bathrooms and larger kitchens and garages help to create a sanctuary for everyone in the family to enjoy. By Carrier offers customers the opportunity to meet with a design specialist to custom design a home that exceeds expectations.
Simplified
Financing
By Carrier has experienced “preferred lenders” who make financing a breeze. Many times, upgrades such as landscaping or even swimming pools can be wrapped up and packaged into a single mortgage, making qualifying for a loan and home appraisal simple! By Carrier works with qualified preferred lenders to offer Connecticut buyers as many options as possible when purchasing their new home.
