6S Design + Build is a Newton-based design-build general contractor co-founded by Lidia Ferraz, Clayton Ferraz, and Tony King, offering new construction, additions, kitchen, bathroom and basement remodeling, and exterior work like roofing, siding and gutters across the Greater Boston area, including Southborough, Brookline, Chelsea and Cambridge, according to the company's own site. The written history is short but detailed. One client, in a July 2026 review, said Clayton Ferraz has handled construction work for them for nine years, praising his carpentry and painting and calling him easy to reach throughout a project. Another described watching Tony and Clay build a new 6-unit property across the street over roughly three years from first neighborhood meeting to completion — the kind of multi-year, ground-up project that speaks to the company's range. A third reviewer, on BuildZoom, called the team's communication better than any contractor they'd worked with before. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (#211350) is active and verified against the state registry. There isn't much written track record to go on yet — just three reviews from the past two years — so it's worth asking for a few recent references directly, especially for a project of any real size. For a homeowner planning a substantial remodel or new build in the Greater Boston area, the early signs — a long-standing personal relationship with one client, a completed multi-unit development, and consistently praised communication — are a reasonable starting point, backed up with a direct conversation about recent work.
Mr. Ferraz has done numerous construction jobs for me over the past nine years and his work has always been terrific, including both carpentry and painting. He communicates throughout a project and his work is top notch. Highly recommended!
Tony and Clay developed a brand new 6-unit property across the street from me. It took about 3 years from the first visit to the neighborhood group to project completion. My GC friend told me that you can tell a lot about the quality of the work inside by how the worksite is maintained on the outside. My GC friend noted the higher quality OSB they were using. Their site was immaculate. There was clear signage and an easily accessible fire extinguisher. The workers were unfailingly responsive to my requests, e.g., moving their cars or even giving me an occasional hand. Above all, however, was the obvious integrity with which Tony managed his affairs. He gave me his cell number and was immediately responsive if I missed him. This came in handy when, for example, a subcontractor did a ridiculously early delivery or the exterior lights were angled into my son's bedroom. He takes his word as seriously as his work.
Clayton and his team are great to work with. His company does quality work and they communicate better than any contractor we have worked with in the past. We highly recommend 6S Design + Build Inc.
