North America Development

North America Development's work shows up in the permit record: 88 permitted projects on BuildZoom, mostly home additions, with a typical permit value near $600,000. The company works out of 93 Broadway in Somerville and, by BuildZoom's description, takes on residential rehab, additions and new-home construction across Greater Boston. Its BBB page carries an A+ grade and puts the company at 14 years in business, categorized there under real estate development. Two of the Hingham permits on its BuildZoom list carry a 'permit revoked' status — ask what happened on those before you sign anything. BuildZoom also lists a Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #183912, for the company; look that number up yourself on the state registry. This is an outfit set up for the big job — a full addition, a gut rehab, a new house — rather than a small repair. If that is your project, ask for addresses of recent Greater Boston work you can drive past, and get the registration and insurance confirmed in writing before the contract.
