Your local windows & doors contractor in Nahant
Many Nahant homes were built long before the materials and codes we work with today, which is exactly why windows & doors here rewards a contractor who has opened up a few walls locally. Waterfront Construction has been doing that across the North Shore since 2018 — licensed, insured and owner-supervised.
Nahant is in Essex County, Massachusetts, established in 1853 and home to roughly 3,300 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 community where most work is word-of-mouth and your neighbours will notice who you hired. It sits in the North Shore. It is about 45 miles from our Northborough shop — about an hour in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Because we're based nearby in Northborough, getting to Nahant 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.
No surprises and no runaround: you get an itemized estimate up front, a realistic schedule, and honest updates if anything changes. That's how we've earned repeat business and referrals across Nahant and the wider region.

Absolutely. Modern double- or triple-pane windows with low-E coatings dramatically cut heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, lowering your bills and eliminating cold drafts.

Replacement windows normally need a permit — and must still meet egress.
Window and door replacement is not on 780 CMR’s exempt list, and any bedroom window has to satisfy the emergency escape and rescue opening requirements even when you are replacing like for like. Changing an opening size is structural work. We file the permit and size the units to code.
For windows & doors work in the Town of Nahant, the filing goes to Nahant'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 Nahant's office before any work starts.
