Your local kitchen & bath remodeling contractor in Somerville
Good kitchen & bath remodeling in Somerville is mostly invisible: the preparation underneath, the flashing you never see, the measurement taken twice. Waterfront Construction builds that way because the owner signs off on every job personally — and because a callback costs us far more than doing it right the first time.
Somerville is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1842 and home to roughly 81,000 people. Its growth came with the mills and the railroads, so much of the older housing is mid-1800s worker and merchant stock — balloon framing, deep sash windows, and porches that have usually been rebuilt at least once. We know the town well — from Davis Square, Union Square and Ball Square to the quieter streets — and our kitchen & bath remodeling crews reach Somerville quickly from nearby Northborough. It is about 35 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic.
New England weather is hard on homes, and Somerville is no exception — freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow and humid summers all take a toll. We approach kitchen & bath remodeling with materials and methods chosen to stand up to it, so your investment keeps looking good and performing well season after season.
Ask us for references before you commit. We're happy to point Somerville 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.

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 Somerville, the filing goes to Somerville'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 Somerville's office before any work starts.
