Your local kitchen remodeling contractor in Somerville
Looking for reliable kitchen remodeling in Somerville, Massachusetts? Waterfront Construction has served Somerville and the surrounding communities since 2018. Based right in nearby Northborough, we're a licensed, insured local team — not an out-of-town outfit — so Somerville homeowners get fast response, honest pricing, and craftsmanship that lasts.
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 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.
Timelines are where most contractors lose trust. We give Somerville 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.
If we're not the right fit for your kitchen remodeling project in Somerville — wrong timing, wrong scale, wrong specialism — we'll say so and point you somewhere better. An honest no costs us one job; a bad yes costs us a reputation across Greater Boston.

Do I need a permit for kitchen remodeling in Somerville, 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 Somerville's building and inspectional services 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 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.
