Custom Home Builder in Schenectady, New York
Schenectady's housing stock reflects its industrial heritage — from the historic Stockade District to the GE Plot neighborhood's well-built colonials and the mixed housing of Hamilton Hill and Bellevue. Many Schenectady homes were built between 1890 and 1960, featuring solid construction but outdated interiors. Custom Home Builder in Schenectady requires a contractor who understands the city's diverse building eras and can modernize efficiently while working within practical budgets.
Mastaba has provided custom home builder services to Schenectady homeowners for over 15 years. Jeffrey Mason personally oversees every project — from Stockade District gems to Mont Pleasant colonials. Mastaba is the fully insured, owner-led choice for Schenectady, backed by a 5-Year Workmanship Warranty.
