Your local additions & remodeling contractor in Malden
Malden homeowners usually call us for one of two reasons: something has failed and needs fixing properly, or they are ready to invest in a house they intend to stay in. Waterfront Construction handles both — licensed, insured additions & remodeling from a Northborough team that has worked across Greater Boston since 2018.
Malden is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1649 and home to roughly 66,500 people. That makes it one of the oldest communities in the state, so the older streets carry genuine antique stock — post-and-beam frames, hand-cut joinery, plaster over lath, and additions layered on across three centuries. We know the town well — from Edgeworth, Maplewood and Linden to the quieter streets — and our additions & remodeling crews reach Malden quickly from nearby Northborough. It is about 40 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic.
A additions & remodeling project touches several trades, and the gaps between them are where problems hide. We coordinate all of them under one contract for Malden homeowners — one schedule, one standard, and nobody pointing at anybody else when a question comes up.
No surprises and no runaround: you get an itemized estimate up front, a realistic schedule, and honest updates if anything changes. That's how we've earned repeat business and referrals across Malden and the wider region.

An addition always needs a permit, and usually more than one.
780 CMR only exempts minor finish work and small detached structures. Anything that changes the footprint, cuts into a load-bearing wall, alters a means of egress or touches the mechanical systems requires a building permit — typically alongside electrical, plumbing and gas permits. As your licensed contractor we file all of them and book the inspections.
For additions & remodeling work in the City of Malden, the filing goes to Malden's building and inspectional services department. As a Massachusetts Registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #196540) we pull the permit in our name, book the inspections and meet the inspector on site — you never have to take a day off for it. Requirements do change, so we confirm the current position with Malden's office before any work starts.
