Handren Bros. Builders

Handren Bros. Builders is a Harwich-based construction company run by three brothers — John, David, and Gregory Handren — who are all certified construction supervisors and, per the company's own account, are approaching their 30th year building and renovating homes around Chatham and Harwich. The written reviews on file are sparse but specific. In a 2024 review, a homeowner said the brothers remodeled a kitchen in a Cape Cod home more than 40 years old, calling the crew professional, responsive, and honest from demolition through the final touches, and adding that every subcontractor Handren brought in was equally skilled. In a 2013 review, a supplier who had worked with the brothers on a product installation called their work exceptional and praised their attention to detail. The company has twice won the Chatham Historical Preservation Award, in 2008 and 2011, and belongs to both the National Federation of Independent Business and the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod. Its Massachusetts home-improvement contractor license is active on the state registry, and BuildZoom's permit records credit the firm with 78 completed projects. Beyond those two written accounts and the historical awards, the platforms that track reviews for this business show very few of them — the newest written account on file is from 2024, and BuildZoom itself shows no customer reviews at all. It's worth asking for recent project references directly. For a kitchen remodel, home addition, or a renovation on a historic Cape Cod property, three decades in business and two award-winning preservation projects make Handren Bros. a credible option — ask to see recent work, since the written reviews on file are older and few in number.
