Design Build Boston

Design Build Boston is a design-build firm working the Boston area — its directory listings show offices in Charlestown, Somerville and Revere at different points, the kind of business built to run a project from first sketch through construction rather than hand off separate trades. Houzz lists it as a Certified Passive House Builder and describes a full slate of remodeling and new-build categories: kitchen and bathroom design, additions, custom new-home construction. The clearest picture of the actual work comes from three Houzz reviews posted in late 2019. One homeowner describes a kitchen renovation with "lots of small details," praising a contact named Arick for walking through each step and keeping the project on budget with his knowledge of building materials. Another covers a roof deck rebuilt after storm damage, calling the result "sturdy" with "a very elegant finish." A shorter HomeAdvisor review from 2018 rounds out the four written reviews available — every one of them five stars. Two license numbers turn up in directory listings — a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor license (CS-109045) on Houzz and an active Home Improvement Contractor registration (#202757) on BuildZoom — but both are the directories' own claims rather than anything verified here, so confirm either directly before signing a contract. Nothing in these reviews is newer than late 2019, so it's also worth asking what the company has completed more recently. For a real kitchen or bath remodel, an addition, or a design-forward new build — not a quick handyman fix — the specific, detailed project reviews here are the strongest reason to call. Just pin down the current office location and confirm the license directly, since the directories don't agree on where the company is actually based.
