BuildX

BuildX is a Hanover-based design-build outfit run by Buz Artiano that's become a go-to name for accessory dwelling units on the South Shore, though its range runs well past ADUs — full custom-home rebuilds, disaster restoration, and structural repairs all show up in its record. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is registry-verified active, and its Better Business Bureau profile is accredited with an A+ grade. The most striking job on file: in a 2023 review, a homeowner described BuildX demolishing and rebuilding their entire house after it was destroyed by an August 2022 fire, finishing in about eight months and treating the reconstruction like a full custom build, complete with weekly planning meetings so nothing got missed. A separate 2023 review described a different large job — restoring all three floors of a home after a major insurance claim for water damage, with the family staying in residence throughout and the project finishing before its target date. The everyday work is just as detailed. A review from this July describes BuildX adding a deck and a new mudroom door onto a home mid-ADU-build, and one from March describes a 900-square-foot ADU built in Kingston for a customer's parents. In a January 2026 review, a family described an ADU in Marshfield built around a daughter's autoimmune needs, with cleanliness and safety built into the design. A separate 2025 review described a different family hiring BuildX to build the first ADU in Plymouth for an autistic brother-in-law, completed in just a few months. In a 2024 review, a customer described BuildX being called in after a different contractor damaged their mother's garage and allegedly took her money — BuildX repaired the actual damage at what the reviewer called a fair price. In a 2025 review, a customer described BuildX installing a structural LVL beam to fix a sagging garage floor, carefully controlling the jacking process so no plaster cracked during the leveling. Several reviews specifically credit named project managers — Kevin Healey, Justin, Stevie — for staying in daily contact by text and phone. Trade partners show up in the record too: in 2025 reviews, an insulation subcontractor and a separate contractor who'd worked alongside BuildX on multiple jobs both describe it as well organized and easy to coordinate with — the kind of endorsement that's harder to fake than a homeowner testimonial. BuildX looks like a strong fit for anyone planning an ADU, a full rebuild, or a project that needs real project-management muscle — permits, subcontractor coordination, disaster restoration — rather than a single trade.
