Your local siding contractor in Harvard
Every siding quote in Harvard should be comparable line by line — scope, materials, timeline, price. Ours is, deliberately, because vague quotes are where budgets go wrong. Waterfront Construction is Northborough-based, licensed (HIC #196540) and insured, and the estimate is free either way.
Harvard is in Worcester County, Massachusetts, established in 1732 and home to roughly 6,900 people. It was settled well before the Republic, which usually means a core of Federal and Greek Revival homes surrounded by later infill — plenty of hand-framed structure, and rooflines never meant to carry today's insulation. 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 16 miles from our Northborough shop — about 30 to 40 minutes in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Because we're based nearby in Northborough, getting to Harvard 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.
Whether it's a single room or a whole-home project, we bring the same care, licensing and insurance to every Harvard job — and we don't consider it done until you're completely happy with the result.

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