 Our
Company started its life as a homebuilder in 1917
and over time has completed a wide range of large
and small residential projects. In recent years,
Trumbull-Nelson, working closely with various
development concerns whose focus includes
healthcare, education and retirement housing,
continues its residential building tradition. The
Company is well-equipped to meet the resource needs
of larger projects, and to also take on the
challenges presented by smaller building
requirements. Trumbull-Nelson maintains a core of
individual carpenters and craftsmen focused on
performing such tasks. Within the Company, a growing
Small Projects Division, led by Jim Forcier, is
handling everything from kitchen renovations to
building additions, with the same level of quality
expected in every Trumbull-Nelson project.
Often, Jim gets requests for help from interesting
sources; perhaps the children or grandchildren of
clients originally served by Trumbull-Nelson in
years past; perhaps second-home or vacation home
owners seeking a bathroom renovation or porch
addition. He may hear from a local resident in need
of minor site work or painting. Very often, owners
will discover a signed floor joist or rafter
indicating that Trumbull-Nelson was the prime
contractor of their residence. In some cases, the
original construction may have occurred in the
1930’s (or earlier). Inevitably, a remark is made
about how ‘structurally solid’ the building remains
after years of continued use. We are proud to follow
in the footsteps of craftsman who have left a mark
on our local environment by delivering a superior
building product, and a tradition of excellent
service. Give Jim and his crew members a call if we
can help with your smaller building projects in the
future.
There are two primary areas of focus within this
issue of Constructive Images. Our cover article
highlights the recently completed Dartmouth College
Rugby Clubhouse, located in Hanover, NH.
Trumbull-Nelson enjoyed working with the College and
all construction and design team participants on
this unique sports facility. Trumbull-Nelson’s
Millwork Shop, and Shop Foreman, Mitch Ross, played
a significant role in the production of cabinetry
and interior trim requirements for this Project.
This issue offers readers an update on Shop
activities, as well as profiling Mitch Ross.
Trumbull-Nelson has begun work that will keep
Company personnel very busy in the months ahead. The
company has begun work at both Sachem Village
Graduate Student Housing Project and the Dartmouth
Regional Technology Center, located in Lebanon, NH;
work continues on the Crossroads Academy campus
expansion, in Lyme, NH; Trumbull-Nelson is working
with New England Kurn Hattin Homes on a dormitory
project for their facility in Westminster, VT; and
design/build work continues on a facility expansion
at P.J. Noyes, in Lancaster, NH.
I hope that you’ll enjoy our Fall issue of
Constructive Images. Please give us a call if we can
provide you with any commercial or residential
building help in the future.
Sincerely,
