Featured Reviews for Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston

The Holland Companies
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 5, 2017
“It’s rare to meet a builder that not only “talks the talk” but also “walks the walk.” The Holland Companies were on time, on budget, and delivered a product superior to the initial quality promised. Basically the opposite of what typically happens. We would entrust our next project with them only.”
Boston Premier Remodeling LLC
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJuly 31, 2015
“I recently purchased my first condo and my realtor recommended BPR for the renovations. Nick and his team were excellent to work with and took the time to explain the process and answer my questions. I was given a quote/timeline and explanation of all the work plus I got frequent updates on progress, issues/recommendations -- so there were never any surprises. The guys did an amazing job on my floors, crown molding and worked with me to design the built-ins for my living room. I will definitely work with them again when I start phase 2 of renovations!”
Lee Kimball
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 31, 2013
“Lee Kimball did a single story addition and kitchen renovation to our historic home. They were fantastic. Very respectful of us, encouraged open and frequent communication, used excellent sub-contractors, were committed to finishing on time, and meticulous about finish work. It was a wonderful experience.”
Steveworks LLC
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 8, 2014
“After interviewing several contractors, we are so glad we hired Steve and his crew to completely rebuild and expand our 1950s kitchen in our 1920s fixer-upper. Steve was incredibly detail oriented, yet flexible and patient in working with and advising us as we designed most of the kitchen and small addition project ourselves. He did everything possible to be respectful of our budget, even as we ran into a few (to be expected in an older home) small surprises. His advice was invaluable, and responsiveness immediate. Moreover, he agreed to work with our plumber with whom we are friends and already felt very comfortable with working on our home. His other subcontractors, including work on tile, plastering, and electrical, were all as pleasant and reliable as Steve himself. Steve was omnipresent; always making sure the job got done right no matter what stage it was in. Steve always made sure to make any touch ups needed after the subcontractors finished their work. Steve and his crew were not only nice to have around, but created a safe and even fun atmosphere while we lived through this major renovation and necessary disruption in our home. With their diligent work, we went from a cramped, awkward, and outdated kitchen, to one we love and doubles as both functional and sorely needed social space that our modest home previously lacked. Steveworks turned our ideas into such a great kitchen that we promptly hired them to completely renovate our dated bathroom. Steve worked with us, our sometimes quirky house, and a very tight budget to give us a dramatically improved space. We highly recommend Steveworks to anyone who is considering hiring a contractor. NOTE: Photo with orange counter is from before work began. The other photo is from just before project completion.”

“We love our kitchen, bathroom and expanded kids bedroom. Dave and Cory really understood our style and our budget. I loved the communication especially the ever other weekly meeting to discuss questions and progress.”
Morse Constructions

Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsDecember 7, 2012
“Repaired a number of issues with the exterior of our house including rotted sofet and replaced the asphalt roof on our porch with a rubber roof (the roof was done by a sub I believe). The work was done int he time expected time frame and looks good. Workers were friendly and kept the work area's clean.”
Express Remodeling Group
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Boston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 6, 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!”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service Boston design-and-build company to complete your entire project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build pros in Boston, MA for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?


Design-build firms take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined design-build process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, Boston design-build firms are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which often speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Before deciding on a residential design-and-build company in Boston, MA, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for Boston design-builders that specialize in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which design-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective Boston design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the design-build construction business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
  • Are your employees licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can this job get done?
  • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
