McCormick Kitchens

McCormick Kitchens has been on Route 1 in Saugus since 1984 — 42 years by BBB's count, four employees, owner Frank McCormick, an A+ grade and a kitchen-and-bath showroom behind it. BBB describes a firm that designs, plans and installs custom kitchens; Houzz shows 39 project galleries and puts a typical job between $18,000 and $48,000. BuildZoom's permit history runs to 64 projects, mostly kitchen remodels, at a typical permit value near $66,000. North Shore Magazine named it best of the North Shore in kitchens in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Written customer accounts are the thin part. There is exactly one, posted to Houzz in September 2015, describing a kitchen and baths at a house in Melrose plus a rental-property renovation, with the team arriving on time and finishing on budget — and its author shares the owner's surname, so read it accordingly. Away from the job site, a March 2023 Good Morning Gloucester item reported Frank McCormick donating an entire kitchen remodel to be auctioned at the Bluefin Blowout, with the proceeds going to Alzheimer's research. One thing to settle before anything else. BuildZoom reports a Massachusetts contractor licence, number 131725, that expired on 5 September 2018 and which it still listed as inactive in July 2026 — that is the directory's record rather than a verification, and BuildZoom files the permits under a second name at the same address and phone, McCormick Builders Group Inc. Ask for the current home improvement contractor registration number, and which entity will actually sign your contract.
