Your local kitchen remodeling contractor in Lancaster
Waterfront Construction has been building and remodelling for Lancaster and the rest of Central Massachusetts since 2018. We are licensed, insured, and deliberately small: enough crew to keep a schedule, few enough jobs at once that your kitchen remodeling project never becomes the one that gets squeezed.
Lancaster is in Worcester County, Massachusetts, established in 1653 and home to roughly 8,400 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. For a contractor that makes it a small town, which usually means a mix of older centre-of-town housing and newer subdivisions on the edges. It sits in Central Massachusetts. It is about 11 miles from our Northborough shop — about 20 to 30 minutes in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Because we're based nearby in Northborough, getting to Lancaster is quick for us — which means faster estimates, easier site visits and a team that's genuinely responsive when you have a question. You're working with a local contractor who answers the phone, not a distant call center.
We stand behind what we build. If something isn't right after we've gone, you call and we come back — that's the point of being licensed, insured and easy to find in Lancaster, rather than a number that stops answering.

Do I need a permit for kitchen remodeling in Lancaster, MA?+
Partly. Cabinets, counters and tile are exempt finish work, but the plumbing, electrical and gas behind them each need their own permit, and moving a wall needs a building permit. We pull whichever your job requires. We file it with Lancaster's building department as a Registered Home Improvement Contractor (MA HIC #196540).
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Massachusetts?+
It depends on size, materials and how much the layout changes. Relocating the sink is usually the single most expensive decision on the plan. After a visit we give you a detailed, itemised estimate rather than a lump sum.
How long is a kitchen out of action?+
Most kitchens run about 2–6 weeks of active work once materials are on site. Custom cabinetry has long lead times, so ordering early is what keeps that number honest.

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 remodeling work in the Town of Lancaster, the filing goes to Lancaster's building 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 Lancaster's office before any work starts.
