Brookes + Hill Custom Builders

Brookes + Hill Custom Builders is a Waltham-based, high-end custom home firm led by David Brookes (President) and Eric Hill (Vice President) — the company has been incorporated since 2010, and its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active and verified. It builds custom homes and full remodels across Greater Boston, the North and South Shores, Cape Cod and New Hampshire, with a portfolio that includes lakefront homes and pool houses. The written record is thin but detailed. A December 2014 Houzz review from the homeowner who commissioned a complex modern home called the project "so well managed it left me wanting to build another house," on budget with excellent site supervision; a companion 2014 review came from Flavin Architects, the firm that designed a Lexington modern home Brookes + Hill built, praising David Brookes for combining old-world craftsmanship with smart-home technology. Two shorter 2023 Google reviews call the company honest and professional and say they'd hire them again. Houzz lists the company's address in Lexington rather than the Waltham address on its own site and BBB profile — worth confirming directly when reaching out. Beyond that, its written record is limited: four reviews on file spanning 2014 to 2023, in keeping with a firm doing a handful of large, bespoke projects rather than high-volume work. For a custom home or major renovation in Greater Boston, the detailed 2014 reviews and a verified active registration point to careful project management on complex builds — worth asking for current references given how small the public review count is.
