The History of Fricot Building & Remodeling
Fricot Building & Remodeling, Inc. (FB & R) was
founded in 1983 as a full-service building and remodeling contracting
company. Gerry Fricot, President and CEO of FB & R, had wanted to
build houses since he was a child. Upon completing a 4-year home construction
course at a Technical High School that taught him the necessary skills
of carpentry, drafting, blueprint reading, and construction design, he
worked for a local contractor for 8 years before opening family-owned
and operated Fricot Building & Remodeling, Inc. The business quickly
grew from doing small kitchen and bath remodeling jobs to home additions,
then to new home construction, both custom-built and on speculation. FB
& R has built several high profile projects over the years, gaining
attention within the building industry for its ability to complete complicated
and visually appealing projects. To date, FB &R has built more than
100 homes across Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts, as well
as a multitude of home expansion projects, such as garages and family
room additions.

More Than Just a Construction Company…
The construction industry is always changing. FB &
R employees regularly attend local building seminars to keep abreast of
the many new materials and techniques that are used to build today’s
new homes. Fricot Building and Remodeling is a participant in the Energy
Star Program, a nonprofit program that promotes the building of energy
efficient homes. FB &R has been certified as an Energy Crafted Home
Builder since 1991.
With our computer-aided drafting and design programs,
we are able to design projects in-house, for a faster turnaround time
and at a lower cost to our clients. From home additions to complete custom
homes, we can create your dream project from scratch, or modify your existing
plans to any specifications. And we don’t stop there…we are
certified in interior design to help you make the inside of your home
as attractive as the outside.

If You Can Dream It, We Can Build It…
In November 1987, Fricot Building & Remodeling, Inc.
was contracted to build an unusual custom home for a client — one
that no other local contractor or modular homebuilder was willing to attempt.
The home was a large octagonal-shaped Contemporary Ranch with a drive-under
garage. It had a very complicated roof line, and featured cathedral ceilings.
FB & R accepted the challenge and built this showcase home, which
is set on a rustic site in the woods of Rehoboth, Massachusetts. Once
completed, the house received a wide range of attention from both the
media and the local building community.

Quality, Service and Commitment to Our Community…
At Fricot Building & Remodeling Company, our mission
is to build projects of the highest quality. Gerry Fricot, together with
our team of skilled craftsmen, will always deliver the highest building
standards that our clients have come to expect. We will complete your
project in a cost-efficient and timely manner — and always within
your budget.
Additionally, FB & R believes in, and promotes the
highest level of ethical standards and integrity throughout our network
of suppliers and specialty subcontractors.
We take tremendous pride in the contributions we make
toward the quality of life within our local communities. Having become
recognized leaders in our field, we consider it equally important to be
leaders in our community. We achieve this through active corporate and
personal involvement where we live and work. We have been instrumental
in making community projects happen, such as a municipal playground, a
play area at a local preschool, and a new roof at an area shelter for
battered women.
These high standards have been the foundation of
Fricot Building & Remodeling Company for 20 years. In an age of rapid
advances and startling technology, home building continues to be as much
an art as a science — an industry in which the final product is
formed not by machinery, but by hand, in a time-honored tradition. That’s
why the talents, caring and start-to-finish involvement of the Fricot
Building & Remodeling Company are so essential to the quality of your
next building project!
