Brite Builders Incorporated

Brite Builders is a design-build general contractor based in Somerville that's been around a long time — the company says it was founded in 1996, and BBB's own profile puts it at 30 years in business with an A+ grade, though it isn't BBB-accredited. Its work, per its own site, spans residential and commercial construction, additions, rehabs, and custom millwork, and the company's president, Zeb Arruda, is listed by BBB as holding a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor license. There's no customer review text on file to describe what an actual project with them looks like — Google shows a 5-star average from just three ratings, but no written accounts behind it. One thing worth checking directly before hiring: the state registry shows the company's own Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration has expired.
