Hoffer Construction LLC is a Halifax-based custom builder run by Joey Hoffer, along with Mark, licensed for home improvement work in Massachusetts (license 202047, active). Its own site lists custom houses, additions, garages and accessory dwelling units, plus roofing, spray-foam insulation, decks, patios, foundation repair and septic system installation.
The written record is short but detailed: three Angi reviews, all dated January 2026, cover a $1,200,000 new build, a $285,000 whole-house renovation, and a $450,000 gut renovation in Needham. One reviewer described a new-construction project that started in 2023 amid pandemic-era supply delays, including an 8-month wait for windows, with Joey and Mark on site from early morning into the evening — "the only reason we were able to sleep at night." Another described Joey taking over a gut renovation in Needham after a bad experience with a previous builder, managing framing and subcontracted electricians, plumbers, insulators and plasterers, laying hardwood floors, and custom-fitting kitchen cabinets the homeowner had bought used. A third project touched nearly every system in the house — a new to-code staircase, updated electrical and overhead lighting, whole-home mini-split AC, revised gas heating, refinished flooring, a partial basement finish, and new windows.
BuildZoom's permit history backs up the larger scope of work: a $1,050,000 new single-family home in Needham (2021) and a $650,000 rear addition in the same town (2022), among six recorded projects. That 2022 addition's permit is listed as suspended, which is worth asking about directly.
For a full gut renovation, custom build, or multi-trade addition, this is a licensed outfit whose reviewers describe close, hands-on oversight through complex, high-dollar projects — confirm current project capacity and ask about that 2022 permit status before committing to similarly large-scope work.
