Melanson Development Group has built custom homes and subdivisions around Woburn and the North Shore for decades — the company says it goes back to 1978, when the late Ed Melanson and his son Bryan Melanson founded it, and Bryan Melanson now leads it as president. Houzz lists the company's work as spanning home remodeling, additions, new construction, and framing across the Greater Boston area. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #189850, is active per the state registry — the same number BuildZoom carries — and it holds an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, though it isn't BBB-accredited. A January 2026 news article reported that developer Jay Melanson of the company presented a 60-unit mixed-use proposal to Winchester's zoning board, a larger project alongside the custom homes and subdivisions the company says it builds. For a custom home or subdivision project, confirm the registration is current and ask for references from a recent build before signing on.
“Developer Jay Melanson, of the Melanson Development Group (MDG), spoke before the Zoning Board of Appeals May 21 with a proposal for a mixed-use building with 60 rental units and commercial space, for 278-292 Washington St. and 12 and 16-20 Swanton St., the sites of abandoned commercial space.”
