Questions

Good things to ask a contractor.

Don't see yours? Call 617-934-1875. A person answers.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Waltham?

It depends on the size of the room, whether walls, plumbing or windows move, and the cabinets and counters you choose. After a free visit we send a written, line-item estimate, so you can see where the money goes and adjust before anything starts.

Do you take small jobs?

Yes. Railings, a single bathroom, a basement wall, punch-list repairs. Small jobs are how a lot of our longest client relationships started.

Do you pull the building permits?

Yes. We file permits with Waltham or your town's building department and schedule every inspection, so the work is on record when you sell.

Are you licensed and insured in Massachusetts?

Yes. HouseCraft is state licensed and carries liability and workers' compensation insurance on every worker and employee on your job.

Which towns do you work in?

Waltham, Newton, Wellesley, Weston, Belmont, Lexington, Arlington, Watertown, Needham, Winchester and Wayland. Not on the list? We travel for the right job, so call or send us the details.

Do you take commercial jobs?

Yes. Most of our work is residential, but we also take on commercial remodeling and build-outs.
