Nano Building Corp.
Builders in Cambridge, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 February 2018
“Nano building has been doing minor carpentry work all the way to giving me the most amazing kitchen, new full bath, floors, windows, new playroom, rebuilding my water damaged basement, house painting and more.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 May 2016
“I've hired HS many times for painting and plastering work. Every single job has been done professionally, on time, at a reasonable price and to my standards. If I ever have a need for a painter or plasterer, HS is my go to company. I would highly recommend.”
YCP Northeast
Builders in Cambridge, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 January 2024
“An absolutely excellent experience with the complete remodel of our 5 units property. The transformation from a gutted to the studs to elegant and functional spaces is truly commendable. The exterior repairs, including the roof, portico and porches, along with the landscape enhancements, have elevated our property's curb appeal. Plus, the addition of 4 new parking spaces - added value! Exceptional service from start to finish! The YCP Team exceeded our expectations in every aspect. Professional, efficient, and the attention to detail was superb. Our project, from architectural design to the final build, was handled with expertise. The team seamlessly executed the remodel, addressing every detail with precision. Communication was top-notch, ensuring we were informed and satisfied every step of the way. Kudos to the team for their outstanding work!”

RC Works LLC
Builders in Cambridge, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 September 2023
“Andrey changed my ugly back yard into a beautiful deck and fence. I looked far and wide for a contractor to do this work. I had one other contractor look at the job but they were not willing to work with me to get the job done. Andrey listened to my ideas about how I wanted it built, and he worked with me to make it happen. I am in Boston so getting the permits to start the job was a huge effort. Andrey was great working with the city to get the permits. I am very happy with the way the project turned out.”
Trinity Refinishing & Remodeling
Builders in Cambridge, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 September 2021
“We are extremely delighted to provide a review on our experience working with Trinity Refinishing and Remodeling company for enhancing our existing deck. It was a great pleasure to work with Yuri and his crew throughout the entire process. Right from the start when we were reaching out to several contractors about our deck project, Yuri stopped by multiple times upon our request to patiently answer all our questions and provide good insights and design options on the concerns we had on the expansion of the deck. Once the project was awarded to him, Yuri immediately filed a permit with the town and was diligently answering all the questions that town had related to the work. Upon approval of the permit from the town (which took almost a month), Yuri immediately started the work the very next day with his experienced crew. The crew were so dedicated and punctual that the work got completed within 7 days when it was supposed to take more than 2 weeks. Yuri's project planning was impeccable, as there was not even a single hour during the day when his crew was idle due to lack of material or direction. Their dedication and attention to detail is really praiseworthy. Yuri has all the required professionals (plumber, electrician, designer, engineers etc) at his disposal that he can have them come over as needed when unforeseen hurdles creep up. They did all they could to keep the customer happy even if it required extra work that they hadn't signed up for in the beginning. Yuri is very considerate to not charge anything extra when unexpected issues come up in the project execution and he had to leverage other professionals to resolve the issues and move forward. I haven't come across any contractor till now who doesn't charge to resolve the issues that are not directly related to them. Me and my wife are really happy to find a contractor like Yuri to work with. We were lucky to find the right person/company to approach for all our future house projects. We really loved the overall experience and quality of work that was delivered by Yuri and his crew. Way to go Trinity Refinishing and Remodeling. Keep up the excellent work!”

“The RSA folks are as good as it gets. They did a fantastic job building a rear deck for us. Highly recommended!.”
Fresh Start Contracting Company
Builders in Cambridge, MA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2015
“Fresh Start was excellent to work with from start to finish. They ordered a gorgeous reclaimed Heart Pine floor in our #1 Quartersawn grade for a high-end renovation job in Harvard Square. The job was well-organized and the schedule was budgeted appropriately to allow for flooring acclimation and installation times. Jobsite was neat and orderly and delivery was organized/executed well, despite the extremely narrow side street and tight driveways of the neighborhood. From start to finish, Fresh Start was easy to work with. They knew how to plan for and work with a high-end finish product and treated it and us with respect. Our experience working with them to patch historic white pine and Heart Pine floors in the area has been similar. We recommend their work to clients in the Boston area.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Cambridge:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Cambridge that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects.
