D.M. Custom Building & Remodeling is David Meader's one-man general contracting business, run from 67 Bumble Bee Cir in Shrewsbury and described on its own site as family owned and operated, serving residential homeowners across central Massachusetts. Massachusetts' registry verifies Home Improvement Contractor registration 114583 as active, held of record by David Meader himself. BuildZoom separately shows that registration and a construction-supervisor licence for one- and two-family homes as verified active, and the company's own site links the state lookup for the same supervisor number. The work is broad but residential: additions of all sizes, kitchens, baths, basements, garages, decks, porches, three-season rooms, tiling and flooring, trim and wainscoting, window and sill replacement, custom mantels and bookcases, and general home repairs. Permit records behind the BuildZoom profile show that same pattern across Jefferson, Auburn and Northborough. The one first-hand account is mixed and worth reading closely. In a March 2024 r/WorcesterMA thread, a homeowner who had hired both this company and another Shrewsbury builder wrote that Dave is a good guy and that his work was good quality, but that he is 'a little more disorganized' than the alternative. That is the whole customer record on the open web apart from a single five-star Google rating with no written body, so there is very little to test consistency against. A reasonable fit for a homeowner in the Worcester area who wants an owner-run builder for an addition, kitchen, bath or basement and is comfortable managing schedule and paperwork actively. Ask for the current certificates of insurance the site offers, confirm registration 114583 with the state, and agree in writing how the schedule and change orders will be tracked.
βI have used Canavan Builders out of Shrewsbury for a large renovation a few years ago and was very happy with them. Mike is a good guy and did quality work. He was also the best priced out of the 3 bids that I got. I have also used Meader Construction in Shrewsbury. Dave is a good guy also but is a little more disorganized. His work was good quality though.β
