Like so many success stories, it begins with doing what you love. 

Peter Belmonte, Sr. was a successful senior executive with General Electric. He enjoyed his position, but there was something else he loved even more: building things. While a visionary, Peter was also a realistic businessperson. He saw a lack in the Capital Region for custom homes of the very highest quality, both in design and materials. His dream – and the opportunity – were in sync.

In 1977, Peter left GE to pursue his dream: to design and build the finest custom homes possible, and to build them exactly the way his customers envisioned. His goal: to make every client's "dream home" a reality.

The outcome: Peter’s market judgement was accurate. In fact, he was so successful — and so happy in his new career — that in 1985 he convinced his son, Peter Jr., to leave his own corporate managerial position and join him in building the company.

The combination of youth and maturity proved dynamic. Today, Belmonte Builders is a prime force in custom home construction in the Capital Region of upstate New York, building 30 to 50 homes per year.

Attention to detail, the use of innovative, high-quality products and the retention of a dedicated, highly experienced staff have all contributed to this success.

Almost equally important is the word-of-mouth of happy clients — the trust and reputation for excellence built house by house, community by community, year after year.

The Belmontes built them – and they continue to come.

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to ensure the long term success of Belmonte Builders by providing our customers with fine quality homes that meet their individual needs.

We achieve our mission by paying close attention to detail, using innovative high quality products, and attaining and keeping experienced staff who strive for excellence. Ultimately our success is measured by our ability to adapt to new challenges while maintaining high standards.

Our Philosophy

Belmonte Builders focuses on the needs and wishes of our customers, measuring our success by their satisfaction with the end result. We are personally involved with every phase of construction, from choosing the site itself and shaping its integration with the community around it, to meeting with every customer involved in the construction of the home.

We are proud of our reputation as an industry innovator, bringing the world of true custom homebuilding into an affordable price range.

Our homes start as low as the mid three hundred thousand dollars and extend into the million dollar plus range. We recognize that for most of us, a home represents a most important investment, not just in terms of money, but for what it says about who we are and how we live.

We constantly strive to improve ourselves, the homes we build and our relationship with our customers. It is our ongoing endeavor to achieve the highest quality of excellence in the industry today. Let us help you build your dream!
