Building Custom Homes That Last a Lifetime
Custom Waterfront Homes Built to Last
Building a custom home is one of life's biggest investments, and choosing the right builder makes all the difference. Since 1975, Rogers Contracting has helped homeowners throughout St. Lawrence County transform waterfront properties into exceptional custom homes that reflect their vision and complement the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.
From the first design meeting through the final walkthrough, our team works closely with you to ensure every detail is thoughtfully planned and expertly executed. Whether your dream home features expansive river views, vaulted great rooms, custom kitchens, screened porches, or outdoor living spaces, we build homes that are as functional as they are beautiful.
Designed for Waterfront Living
Building along the St. Lawrence River requires more than quality craftsmanship, it requires local knowledge. We understand the unique challenges of waterfront construction, including shoreline regulations, elevation changes, foundation design, drainage, utilities, and maximizing panoramic views.
Our homes are designed to embrace the outdoors with features such as:
- Floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the river
- Open-concept living spaces
- Covered porches and screened outdoor rooms
- Energy-efficient construction
- Custom kitchens and luxury bathrooms
- Stone fireplaces and outdoor living areas
- Aging-in-place and retirement-friendly designs
Whether you're building a seasonal cottage, a year-round residence, or your forever retirement home, we'll help you create a home that's perfectly suited to your property and your lifestyle.

A Personalized Building Experience
No two families, or properties, are alike. That's why every Rogers Contracting home is truly custom. We take the time to understand your goals, budget, and design preferences while providing honest communication throughout every stage of construction.
Our reputation has been built on craftsmanship, integrity, and relationships that last long after construction is complete.
When you build with Rogers Contracting, you're partnering with a local builder who understands St. Lawrence County, values quality workmanship, and takes pride in creating homes that families will enjoy for generations.




F.A.Q.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to build a custom waterfront home?
The cost of a custom waterfront home depends on factors such as size, design, finishes, site conditions, and shoreline access. Every property is unique, so we provide detailed estimates based on your vision and your building site.
Do you work with homeowners on custom home designs?
Yes. We work closely with homeowners, architects, and designers to create a home that reflects your lifestyle while maximizing your property's views, natural light, and outdoor living spaces.
What makes building a waterfront home different from a traditional home?
Waterfront homes often require additional planning for shoreline setbacks, drainage, soil conditions, elevation, erosion protection, and environmental regulations. Our experience building in Northern New York helps ensure these unique challenges are addressed from the beginning.
How long does it take to build a custom waterfront home?
Every project is different, but most custom homes take several months to complete depending on the home's size, complexity, permitting, and weather conditions. We provide a realistic construction schedule before work begins.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We coordinate the necessary permits, inspections, and approvals required throughout the construction process so your project stays compliant with local building requirements.
Can you build year-round homes or seasonal cottages?
We build both. Whether you're looking for a four-season waterfront residence or a custom vacation home, we'll design and build a home that fits how you plan to use it.
