Norfolk Design & Construction

Norfolk Design & Construction is a general contractor based in Walpole, founded in 2014 by Adler Bernadin and Duane Boyce, who worked together at Shawmut Design & Construction before starting the firm. Bernadin, the company says, first envisioned it in 2005 after returning from a tour of duty in Iraq with the Marine Corps, which he joined in 2001. The company describes itself as a minority- and veteran-owned construction and project management firm working on land development, residential and commercial construction, renovations, and owner's project management across the greater Boston area. LISC, the community development lender, has reported extending the company a $1.77 million construction loan. Its ownership credentials aren't only self-reported — the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office lists Norfolk Design and Construction as an active, state-certified Minority Business Enterprise and Veteran Business Enterprise. For a land-development, commercial, or larger renovation project, it's worth talking through scope and timeline directly with Bernadin or Boyce.
