Dream Builderz
Builders in Essex County, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 December 2014
“I was unexpectedly faced with a significant construction project as a result of wear and tear and water damage. the entire front porchway and second floor deck as well as a retaining wall needed immediate work. I contacted Mr. LaPuma who came out and assessed the situation. He gave me a true estimate that was financially competitive and accurate as to time. He was true to his word and started the job, after full permitting, on the day he had proposed and finished the job within one day of his original projection. it is rare to find a true professional in the construction trades --- Dream Builderz and Mr. LaPuma are such professionals. Reliable, quality work done with precision and pride.”
Express Remodeling Group
Builders in Essex County, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 January 2021
“I am delighted to give Express Remodeling Group my strongest endorsement! As an architect, my partner and I worked with Wagner and his crew on an addition and renovation project in Winchester. The construction process was managed efficiently and the work was carried out professionally. If Wagner had a question about the intent of the drawings he always called to discuss. He came prepared to weekly site meetings with the Client and would readily fix any issues that arose. On top of Wagner's great management style, close communication and can-do attitude, his team kept the construction site immaculate at the end of the day. SWZ Architects looks forward to working with Express Remodeling Group again!”
CT Carpentry
Builders in Essex County, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 May 2019
“We recently completed a first floor bathroom and laundry/utility room renovation with Millstone Creations. Peggy, the coordinator and all around “go to” was a pleasure to work with. She was organized and responsive and kept the all the moving pieces in place. Shon, the cabinet maker and problem solver displayed quality workmanship throughout all aspects of his involvement. We were especially pleased with the tile work which was significant and resulted in a beautiful, walk-in shower and floor. Our job was completed on time and on budget! We would not hesitate to recommend this company.”

Matriarch Construction
Builders in Essex County, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 December 2023
“Kitchen remodel and 2 Bathroom remodels I had the pleasure of working with Matriarch Construction to remodel my kitchen and 2 bathrooms and they exceeded our expectations. "Received daily emails regarding progress and/or upcoming information/meetings. Quick response/resolution to any concerns/changes requested. Clear breakdown of allowances/estimates, including any change orders. Friendly, and reliable from start to finish. Which is a huge comfort for a family having work done in their home - especially with young kids. Great follow through with open items at the end of the job. Did not have any issues getting them to come back to finish even the smallest items. Outstanding service. Thank you Matriarch!”

Victor is extremely knowledgeable and did a tremendous job explaining the materials and scope of work being done. He handled all the hiccups along the way and was up front about everything. We were very pleased with extra care taken to ensure a clean yard when the job was complete!”
RC Works LLC
Builders in Essex County, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 September 2023
“Andrey changed my ugly back yard into a beautiful deck and fence. I looked far and wide for a contractor to do this work. I had one other contractor look at the job but they were not willing to work with me to get the job done. Andrey listened to my ideas about how I wanted it built, and he worked with me to make it happen. I am in Boston so getting the permits to start the job was a huge effort. Andrey was great working with the city to get the permits. I am very happy with the way the project turned out.”

I appreciate his attention to detail and helpful feedback when I had questions while designing the built ins. He was extremely professional and personable throughout the entire experience. I would absolutely hire him again for my own home or my interior design clients.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Essex County:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.
