STAFFORD SPRINGS, CT, United States – August 25, 2026 – LaRoche Builders is celebrating two 2025 HBRA awards recognizing its craftsmanship, design work, and commitment to the home construction and remodeling industry. A residential construction and remodeling company serving Northern Connecticut and Western Massachusetts, this honor reflects its long-standing focus on residential construction that combines skilled workmanship with practical solutions for homeowners.
Andrew LaRoche of LaRoche Builders was named 2025 Remodeler of the Year by the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of the Connecticut River Region. The recognition was presented during the association’s annual HBRA Gala at the Bristol Event Center.
The Remodeler of the Year award recognizes leadership within the remodeling industry, quality craftsmanship, professional standards, and a commitment to serving homeowners.
LaRoche Builders also received the “Special Feature” People’s Choice Award through the Connecticut Parade of Homes and the Home Builders & Remodelers Association.
Unlike an award selected solely by an industry panel, the People’s Choice recognition reflects votes from the public and event attendees. The Special Feature category recognizes design, craftsmanship, attention to detail, and distinctive elements that stand out to people viewing the participating homes.
“Receiving these two awards means a great deal to our entire team,” said Andrew LaRoche. “We have always believed that good construction starts with listening to the homeowner, doing the work correctly, and paying attention to the details that make a house work for the people living in it. To receive recognition from both our industry peers and the public makes these honors especially meaningful.”
Since 1986, LaRoche Builders has served homeowners throughout Northern Connecticut and Western Massachusetts, building, remodeling, and improving their homes with distinction. The Stafford Springs company provides home construction, home remodeling, and house foundation replacement, including work on homes affected by crumbling foundations.
“An award is something we appreciate, but what matters most is the work behind it. Our goal on every project is to leave the homeowner with a finished home they are proud of and work that will serve them well for years,” said LaRoche.
