Expert General Contractor in Dracut, Massachusetts

We work out of Charlton, 30 miles away — under an hour. That matters mostly for the unglamorous parts: getting back out for a warranty call, or being on site when the inspector is.

The three we see most often here: exterior scope that grows once the walls are open, with no agreed rate for the extra; water damage that spans siding, trim and window openings and cannot sensibly be split up; and earlier partial repairs that now have to be tied back into a whole elevation. Locally, aging clapboard siding comes up repeatedly on colonial revivals.

Sometimes. On a colonial revivals we can often match a single elevation closely enough that it reads as original. Where the existing material has faded past matching, we will say so rather than sell you a repair you will be unhappy with.

No. The crew on your Dracut home is our own. It is the main reason we can hold a schedule and the main reason the same people who started your job are the ones who finish it.

You get manufacturer warranties on every material plus a single 5-year workmanship warranty covering the whole package. Both are in writing at handover. The workmanship warranty is ours, not a third party's, and it is the one that actually gets used.

We work mainly in siding, window and door packages, full-exterior envelope work, trim, soffit and fascia systems, and we are certified installers for James Hardie, Andersen, Therma-Tru. Which of those makes sense for your Dracut home depends on exposure and budget, and we will tell you when the cheaper option is the right one.
