MB Construction, LLC

MB Construction is one man, Matthew Bradley, and a crew — and the reviews are all about him by name. That is the shape of this Billerica builder: a small outfit where the owner is the estimator, the site lead and the person who answers the phone. The work is additions and new construction more than small repairs. Garage additions attached and detached, in-law and ADU spaces, second-storey additions, kitchen, bath and basement remodels, decks, and the excavation and site work that goes underneath them. Come winter, the company turns to commercial snow and ice management for condo complexes, office parks and retail centres — worth knowing if you are booking a January job. The company says it has been building around Billerica since 2011. The track record is short but consistent. Every written account on Google, spread across 2021 to 2024, is a five-star one, and they land on the same handful of themes: the owner replies quickly, the price agreed at the start is the price at the end, and the crew leaves the site clean. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and its BBB page carries an A+ grade — though the company is not BBB Accredited, and BBB publishes no reviews or complaints for it at all. It is also listed with the Billerica Chamber of Commerce. Two things to pin down before booking. First, Google's average sits at 4.4 across twelve ratings even though every review with words in it is a five — so some people rated lower without explaining why, and it is fair to ask for recent references rather than relying on the written record, whose newest entry is now over two years old. Second, the founding dates do not line up: the website says 2011 while BBB records the LLC as started and incorporated in March 2015. Neither is a red flag on its own, but ask how long the business has operated in its current form. BBB also lists this as a single-employee company, so scheduling depends on one person's calendar and on subcontracted trades. That is a fine trade for a homeowner who wants the owner personally on their addition, and a poor one for anyone needing several crews running at once. The right call here is a homeowner planning an addition, a garage or a whole-house project around Billerica who wants a direct line to the person doing the work. Before signing, confirm the HIC registration on the state's own lookup, get the scope and payment schedule in writing, ask which trades are subcontracted, and request certificates for general liability and workers' compensation.
