Your local additions & remodeling contractor in Fitchburg
If you have been putting off additions & remodeling in Fitchburg because you dread the process, that is usually a communication problem rather than a construction one. We give Fitchburg homeowners an itemised estimate, a start date we can hold, and one person to call — then we keep to it.
Fitchburg is in Worcester County, Massachusetts, established in 1764 and home to roughly 42,000 people. It was settled well before the Republic, which usually means a core of Federal and Greek Revival homes surrounded by later infill — plenty of hand-framed structure, and rooflines never meant to carry today's insulation. We know the town well — from downtown Fitchburg, West Fitchburg and Cleghorn to the quieter streets — and our additions & remodeling crews reach Fitchburg quickly from nearby Northborough. It is about 25 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic.
We treat your Fitchburg home the way we'd want our own treated: clean job sites, clear daily communication, and respect for your time and property. When the additions & remodeling project wraps, the only thing we leave behind is work you'll be proud to show off.
Ask us for references before you commit. We're happy to point Fitchburg homeowners at completed work nearby and at the people we did it for — that conversation tells you more about a contractor than any website can.
For the full detail on how we approach this work — materials, process and what to expect — see our additions & remodeling page.
