Your local kitchen & bath remodeling contractor in Cambridge
Many Cambridge homes were built long before the materials and codes we work with today, which is exactly why kitchen & bath remodeling here rewards a contractor who has opened up a few walls locally. Waterfront Construction has been doing that across Greater Boston since 2018 — licensed, insured and owner-supervised.
Cambridge is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1636 and home to roughly 118,000 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 Harvard Square, Porter Square and Kendall Square to the quieter streets — and our kitchen & bath remodeling crews reach Cambridge quickly from nearby Northborough. It is about 35 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic.
Timelines are where most contractors lose trust. We give Cambridge homeowners a start date we can hold, sequence the trades so nobody waits on anybody, and tell you the same day if something moves. A realistic schedule beats an optimistic one every time.
From permits and materials to the final finish and clean-up, you work directly with the owner from start to finish — one accountable point of contact for your whole kitchen & bath remodeling project in Cambridge.

The finishes are exempt; what is behind them usually is not.
780 CMR exempts cabinets, counter tops, tiling and similar finish work from a building permit. But a kitchen or bathroom remodel almost always triggers separate electrical, plumbing and gas permits, and moving or removing any wall needs a building permit of its own. We pull whichever apply.
For kitchen & bath remodeling work in the City of Cambridge, the filing goes to Cambridge'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 Cambridge's office before any work starts.
