Dear Morrison's,
windows!! From the start, the process was very smooth. The men that came were courteous and professional.
Thank you all, Bob and Maureen A. Great Barrington, MA
NOVEMBER 21, 2022
"When we left New York to turn a 1910 Lenox farmhouse into our primary residence, we knew we would need a special contractor. We were lucky enough to find Morrison's, the Best General Contractor in the Berkshires! We were impressed by how you listened. Your leadership, commitment to customer satisfaction and friendship helped turn our dreams into reality."
Laurie and Joe P. Lenox, MA

"5 stars. Thank you and your crew for the professional and functional work they did renovating a bathroom, sunroom and kitchen.
The crew did exemplary work making sure that things stayed clean, orderly, and as functional as possible throughout. This was a series of big projects. Now that they are finished, it looks like my home has always been this way. Thank you and your amazing team for their work and kindness. And tell the crew they can stop over for baked goods any morning. There's always something just out of the oven for you guys."
Ellen S. Pittsfield, MA
JULY 18, 2022
"We could not have asked for a better experience. Our kitchen, hand-crafted front closet doors and our new deck with solar lights are the talk of the neighborhood. It was a pleasure working with all the members of the Morrison family and you do indeed deserve the award of Best of the Berkshires."
Lorrin and Andrew K. West Stockbridge, MA ________________________________

"We are so thankful for the professional care given to the roof that was done at our home. I recommend this business fully. Our roof was done on the exact date that it was promised. The office was always available for all of my questions and a great partner in the process. The whole team was so amazing. We were so lucky to have found them!"

Massachusetts Employment Discrimination Guidelines
Massachusetts State Law Prohibits
Employment Discrimination based on:
RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, SEX, DISABILITY , AGE , GENETIC INFORMATION, MARITAL STATUS, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, MILITARY SERVICE, ARREST RECORD*, GENDER IDENTITY
* DISABILITY: physical or mental. Qualified handicapped persons are entitled to reasonable accommodations, unless that accommodation presents an undue hardship to the employer. AGE: (40 and older) Federal law and Massachusetts law both prohibit employers from discriminating against their employees who are 40+ years old based on their age. ARREST RECORD: It is illegal for an employer to ask certain questions about a job applicant's or employee's criminal record. The CORI Reform Act prevents employers from seeking disclosure of job applicants' criminal record information prior to the interview stage of the hiring process. GENDER IDENTITY: It is illegal for an employer to publish a job advertisement that shows a preference for or discourages someone from applying for a job because of his/her race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information.
Also, Discrimination Laws refer to Art in Employment ads as well as copy ie: no white male under the age of 40 can be depicted in an employment ad all by himself.
