Duxbury Construction is a Kingston, Massachusetts civil contractor that has served Duxbury and the surrounding South Shore since 1979, when lifelong Duxbury resident Freeman Boynton Jr. started the company as a one-man operation with a single piece of equipment. Four and a half decades later it runs a fleet of trucks and heavy equipment doing sitework, grading, utility work, excavation, and seawall construction and repair. Google reviews from 2022 through 2025 describe efficient, fast sitework and grading, calling the company the go-to choice in the area for that kind of work, and a 2022 review describes a punctual, thorough title 5 septic inspection. Local news coverage separately describes the owner volunteering labor and equipment for town projects, including leveling ground for a public picnic area and helping move a beached whale. A 2025 review describes a near-collision with one of the company's trucks on Route 14. Separately, a 2025 community report describes a Select Board hearing over the company's sand-mining operations, with neighbors reporting environmental damage and complaining about pollution and noise. The company holds an active Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (HIC #194465). BuildZoom's own listing shows two additional license numbers under the company's name, one in Massachusetts and one in Rhode Island; neither of those two numbers is currently active.

“Too late to stop the extensive damage to an important natural habitat, the residents around Teakettle Lane finally got their hearing on Duxbury Construction’s extensive sand mining in their neighborhood. ... According to neighbor Sheila Lynch-Benttinen, the area looks like a war zone, extensive wildlife in the area has all but disappeared, and she and other neighbors have had to endure years of pollution and noise as a result of industrial-level operations at the site. ... “Anyone who has a financial stake in sand mining should not be involved in public discussions or writing of permits,” she”
“Freeman Boynton, owner of Duxbury Construction, prepares straps to move the whale off the beach.”
One of there large trucks almost hit me with my son head on today in my lane on Rte 14, if I didn't slam my brakes we'd probably be dead!
They're friendly and do good work.
Multiple experiences with Dux Con over the last few years and have always found them to be incredibly efficient and fast at what they do. They are the go-to company in Duxbury & surrounding areas for sitework, grading & utility work. My wife and I highly recommend!
Hard working and trusted professionals!
Had a title 5 inspection today. John arrived on time and was very pleasant and thorough and left our property as he found it at the end of the inspection. Nice job.!
