MKE Development Corporation is a Braintree-based, family-owned design/build company run by Michael and Kathy Egasti since November 2005. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor license is active, and its small review history is uniformly positive. In an August 2025 review, a customer described a full kitchen rehabilitation handled with exceptional professionalism and care from the earliest planning stages onward. In a June 2024 review, another customer described a comprehensive whole-house renovation praised for its professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail from start to finish. A separate 2024 review described an addition project that MKE turned from a vision into reality, crediting Kathy's organization and Mike's building skill, with the customer reporting continued satisfaction three years after the work was completed. Beyond renovations and additions, MKE also runs a dedicated pergola and deck line — Distinctive Pergolas by MKE — with 10 completed projects and 19 years of experience in that specialty listed on its Houzz profile. The company's own materials describe a broad design/build practice spanning new construction, whole-house renovations, energy-efficient homes, indoor pools, and home theaters, in addition to custom pergolas. For a Braintree-area homeowner planning a kitchen remodel, a home addition, or a larger whole-house renovation, MKE Development's licensed, family-run operation and strongly positive customer accounts — even with a small sample so far — make it worth a conversation.
We had the pleasure of working with Kathy and Michael on a full kitchen rehabilitation project, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism and care during the planning phase—taking time to truly understand our goals, offer insightful suggestions, and develop a realistic timeline and budget that aligned perfectly with our vision. The workmanship throughout the renovation was top-tier. Every cabinet, tile, and fixture was installed with precision and attention to detail that speaks volumes about their craftsmanship and pride in their work. We also appreciated how seamlessly they coordinated with their sub-contractors, maintaining a cohesive and respectful team dynamic that kept the project moving smoothly. Equally impressive was their commitment to timelines. The renovation was completed right on schedule—no small feat in today’s busy construction climate—and any questions or concerns we had were met with prompt, thoughtful responses. Even after the project was finished, they remained responsive to warranty-related follow-ups, standing behind their work and offering peace of mind that truly sets them apart. If you're considering a residential kitchen renovation, we highly recommend MKE Development. They're a rare find in the construction world: skilled, reliable, and genuinely invested in making your home more beautiful and functional.

The MKE team was great to work with. Very knowledgable! They always arrived on time and cleaned up the site. I would definately use them again.
Mike and Kathy at MKE are incredible to work with. MKE took our vision for our addition and made it a reality. Kathy is incredibly organized and Mike is a skilled builder. Mike and Kathy communicated with us throughout the entire process and 3 years later we couldn't be happier with our project. I fully recommend MKE and will use them again in the future.
