FINNEGAN DEVELOPMENT

Finnegan Development is a family-owned residential developer based in Lexington, Massachusetts, built on Jay Finnegan's construction career going back to 1970; his son Ben joined the business in 2007 and opened the current Lexington office in 2010, according to the company's own site. Its public profile leans heavily toward larger projects: news coverage describes it building 30-unit and other multi-family condominium communities, including one that won a 2020 National PRISM Gold Award, alongside its own description of building custom single-family homes. Customer reviews are sparse — just two on file going back a decade. In a 2016 Houzz review, a homeowner who was brought in to help select tile, countertops and paint for several new homes the company was building described working with Ben Finnegan and his team as a pleasure. A Google review from April 2026 called the process smooth and stress-free, with attention to detail in the final result, though it doesn't name a specific project. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (#188694, held by Finnegan Commercial Development Corporation) is active, confirmed against the state registry. Houzz notes that the phone number and address on its own profile differ slightly from what's listed on the company's website — worth double-checking before reaching out. Given how few individual customer accounts there are and how much of its public profile centers on multi-unit development work, homeowners looking for a smaller custom-home or remodeling project should ask directly about the scale of work Finnegan typically takes on.
