Oak Grove Builders

Oak Grove Builders is a Melrose kitchen-and-bath outfit, and its written record is one tight burst: seven five-star reviews posted between early September and October 2023 across Houzz and HomeAdvisor, and nothing since. What those 2023 customers described lines up. One, writing in September 2023, had them renovate a kitchen and bathrooms and said the crew walked through materials and costs before starting and produced a 3D drawing to work from. Another that same month had hired them more than once — kitchen first, then bathrooms — and pointed to the finish work. In October 2023 a homeowner credited them with help picking materials on a staircase job. The twelve project galleries on Houzz run the same way: kitchens and baths, farmhouse through ultra-modern. The company puts a typical job between $10,000 and $1 million, and HomeAdvisor prints a Massachusetts trade licence for it, CS-115629, with a February 2027 expiration — that is the company's own self-report rather than a registry check, so confirm it before you sign anything. Worth knowing too: the two HomeAdvisor reviews belong to the same 2023 cluster, and one of them is the same review that appears on Houzz, so the two profiles overlap more than the two ratings suggest. That leaves a real but dated picture. Everyone who wrote about hiring them in 2023 was happy, and there is nothing newer to say whether the crew, the pricing or the pace has held since. If you are planning a kitchen or bath and want a builder who front-loads the planning, they are worth a call — ask for references from the last year and check the licence number yourself.
