Your local windows & doors contractor in Somerville
Waterfront Construction provides professional windows & doors for homeowners throughout Somerville and nearby towns. From our base in Northborough we keep response times short and standards high — fully licensed and insured, owner-supervised on every job, and committed to leaving your Somerville home better than we found it.
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 windows & doors 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.
Call and you get a person, usually the owner. Message us and you get an answer within one business day. On a windows & doors project in Somerville that responsiveness isn't a courtesy — it's what keeps the job moving.

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 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.
