Brothers Jay and Paul Gallagher are known for creating custom homes to complement and enhance New England communities. They are committed to meeting the needs of today's educated, value-oriented consumer.

Maintenance free features are everywhere – all the trim, fascia board, decking and railings are made of synthetic material; homes are shingled in white cedar; energy efficient Andersen windows are standard, and the roof is guaranteed by the manufacturer for life. Natural gas heat through high efficiency heating and air conditioning systems will keep the family comfortable. The attention to detail and lifestyle is a hallmark of any Gallagher home.
