Merrimack Valley General Contractors

Merrimack Valley General Contractors takes the whole job rather than one trade: new construction, kitchen and bathroom renovations, additions, roofing, carpentry, decks and patios, flooring and lead abatement, for homeowners and commercial clients alike. The company works out of Blanchard Street in Lawrence. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #196272, is active on the state registry in the company's own name. Lead abatement sitting on the service list is worth a note in older housing stock — the deleading can be handled by the same outfit running the renovation instead of a separate specialist. The company names Lawrence, Lowell, Lynn, Newton, Cambridge, Boston, South Boston and Dorchester among the places it works. For a gut renovation or an addition where you would rather sign with one company than coordinate four, this is the shape of contractor to call. Ask for addresses of recent projects near you, a written scope with a schedule, and — if deleading is part of the work — who on the crew is licensed to do it.
