“Building a custom home has been a dream for us, and thanks to Glenn Strys and Lords Valley Builders, that dream is now taking shape with care, quality, and attention to detail.

Before choosing Glenn, we interviewed six different builders across the Poconos. From our very first meeting, he stood out as the most trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely friendly builder we met. His professionalism and down-to-earth nature put us at ease — and throughout the project, he has exceeded every expectation.

Glenn is a true custom builder in every sense of the word. Unlike many companies that advertise customization but steer clients toward rigid templates, Glenn took the time to tailor every aspect of our home to our vision. His detailed planning process made it easy to visualize each decision, and he was incredibly patient as we asked questions, revisited ideas, and occasionally changed our minds. No matter how particular or indecisive we were, Glenn remained flexible, understanding, and solution-oriented — always helping us find the perfect outcome.

He also went above and beyond in helping us select the right piece of land — a process we couldn’t have navigated nearly as smoothly without his local knowledge and guidance. From land selection to design decisions and material choices, Glenn offered expert advice while ensuring we always felt empowered to create the home we truly wanted.

Now in the final stages of construction, everything thus far has been outstanding. We’re fully confident in Glenn and his team’s ability to deliver an exceptional finished home.

The quality of the craftsmanship is top-notch. Our independent pre-drywall inspection found only a few minor items — a testament to the pride and care Glenn and his crew bring to their work. From the beautiful stonework on the fireplace to the precision of the trim and finishes, it’s clear that Lords Valley Builders builds every home as if it were their own.

Communication has been consistently good. Glenn was responsive to emails — even on weekends — which made the entire process far less stressful than we ever imagined a new build could be.

If you're looking for a builder who will not only construct a house but help you build your dream — someone who is flexible, patient, highly skilled, trustworthy, and truly committed to getting every detail right — we could not recommend Glenn Strys and Lords Valley Builders more highly.

Working with Glenn has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We would absolutely choose him again without hesitation.“

“The LakehouseWe bought a 27-year-old cottage on a cliff that was built for someone else’s life. With the guidance and support from Clemleddy Construction, we totally reconfigured it into a contemporary home that is not only open and airy but also cozy and comfortable and as close to maintence-free as possible. With their help, we created both a serene retreat and an active home base for family and friends — a home built for our lives. The designers, mindful of the home’s location, added walls of windows and balconies inside and out to allow the light through the forest to sparkle like a French Impressionist painting as it enters the home. The two-story main living space uses an open staircase of oak railings and clear glass to add a variety of grand vistas from almost any line of sight. The kitchen, once a cramped space within which more than one person was a crowd, has become a gathering place for many around a long island with plenty of seating. Two sinks serve both the guests and the chefs as conversation and drinks flow in this culinary center. The crisp white cabinets are offset by the sparkling copper and siena facets of the countertops and are pleasing to all the senses. The addition of a glass-enclosed dining room with vaulted ceiling and high windows right off the kitchen expands the views and provides a dining experience “in the treetops”! The design staff extended our vision by adding a dramatic two-story stone fireplace to anchor the living room and enhance the expansive white walls with a column of soft earth tones. As the design work continued, the search for the perfect flooring took time and was resolved only when Alison found her solid Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring. The warm color from the polished cherry floors throughout highlights the architectural features and ties the clean, white, modern look together.Our experience with all the Clemleddy staff was overwhelmingly positive. It became clear to us as soon as we started working with Clemleddy that these were people we could trust and who had our best interests at heart. While the project became much greater in scope than we anticipated, Clemleddy’s eye for safety, craftsmanship and thoroughness assured us of our renewed home’s integrity. Many changes come with any large project, but we were always given choices as well as sound recommendations. We wish we had a fraction of Craig Smyth’s energy, sense of humor and expertise! Finally, a big shout-out to the many others we saw, and didn’t see, who worked tirelessly to make our vision a reality.This labor of love and Clemleddy skill took a 1900 square foot high-maintenance cabin in the woods and a two-bay detached box of a garage to a nearly maintenance-free classic 2600 square foot contemporary home with an oversized three-bay carriage house that would charm any New York designer. Clearly a home built for life... on the edge!Alison & Tom Samph“
