Empire Building & Development LLC

Empire Building & Development LLC is a general contractor based in East Boston, Massachusetts, founded and run day-to-day by owner-operator Matt Rogers, a Massachusetts CSL-licensed construction supervisor. The company holds an active, registry-verified Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license and focuses on kitchen and bathroom remodeling, new home construction, and multi-family and investment-property renovation across Greater Boston. Reviewers consistently describe Rogers as personally on-site and highly responsive. In a 2024 review, one homeowner said he "nailed every detail" on a kitchen, laundry room, and two-bathroom renovation and called the results "the house of my dreams," while another described a full kitchen and two-bathroom job finished with what they called professional, responsive service. When a customer's bathroom flooded, a 2024 review says Empire "quickly stepped in and renovated on time and within budget," calling the company trustworthy and straightforward. A reviewer identifying as a HERS energy rater described working with Empire on multiple projects and praised a level of construction detail "you don't realize" from the finishes alone. Empire also does work for real-estate investors and developers. A recent review from someone with decades in real estate development says they've now worked with Empire on ground-up multifamily construction, renovations, and special projects, and a 2024 review from an investor credited Rogers with coordinating subcontractors and holding the budget line on an investment project. All seven reviews on file are five stars, spanning 2024 into 2026, and the company's HIC registration is independently verified as active under its own name — the license status and review record line up with what the company's own site claims. This is a good fit for East Boston and Greater Boston homeowners planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel, and for investors or landlords who want a contractor experienced coordinating multi-family and ground-up construction directly with the owner on-site.
