Adams & Ruxton Construction Co

Adams & Ruxton Construction is a West Springfield general contractor with roots dating to 1909 — the company says it's been operating in western Massachusetts for 117 years — and it carries an A+ Better Business Bureau rating. It's certified as a Woman Business Enterprise and Veteran Business Enterprise through the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office, a Veteran-Owned Small Business through the SBA, and nationally through WBENC. It self-performs finish work, millwork, framing, site development and renovations for public and private commercial clients across western Massachusetts and New England, and is a signatory contractor with Carpenters' Union Local 336 and Laborers' Union Local 999. Its public record includes a 2023 bid win for stair-and-landing repair work at Springfield Technical Community College, and a 2021 breach-of-contract suit it filed against another contractor and a property owner over roughly $58,000 it said it was owed for construction work. Given its scale and commercial focus, it's best suited to institutional or larger commercial projects rather than typical single-family home jobs.
