Your local siding contractor in Dover
Many Dover homes were built long before the materials and codes we work with today, which is exactly why siding here rewards a contractor who has opened up a few walls locally. Waterfront Construction has been doing that across the MetroWest region since 2018 — licensed, insured and owner-supervised.
Dover is in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, established in 1836 and home to roughly 5,900 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. 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 the MetroWest region. It is about 25 miles from our Northborough shop — about 30 to 40 minutes in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Timelines are where most contractors lose trust. We give Dover 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.
Whether it's a single room or a whole-home project, we bring the same care, licensing and insurance to every Dover job — and we don't consider it done until you're completely happy with the result.

Most homes are completed in about 1–2 weeks depending on size, the material chosen, and any repairs needed underneath. We give you a firm timeline before we start.

Vinyl and fiber-cement both perform extremely well in New England. Fiber-cement is exceptionally durable and fire-resistant, while vinyl offers great value and low maintenance. We help you choose based on your budget and the look you want.

Siding replacement is not on the Massachusetts exemption list.
780 CMR’s exempt-work list covers finish work like painting and tiling, and small unattached decks — it does not exempt re-siding a house. Expect a building permit, and expect the inspector to care about the weather barrier and any rot repair found during tear-off. We handle the filing and the inspection.
For siding work in the Town of Dover, the filing goes to Dover'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 Dover's office before any work starts.
