Square & Plumb Builders

A full kitchen renovation, from design through completion, is what one June 2026 customer describes hiring Square & Plumb Builders to do. The homeowner says Cris and the team transformed the kitchen and took ownership of the project's success. The company describes itself as a full-service construction and renovation business based in Gloucester, Massachusetts; testimonials on its website name Chris and Rita as the owners. NESEA also describes the business as minority-owned and focused on remodeling and new construction. The work customers describe ranges from individual rooms to substantial house renovations. In an October 2025 Google review, Lisa and Tom Lynch said Chris and his crew expanded their small house in Ipswich over five months, retaining the existing foundation and garage underneath. Another customer, writing that month, described a new bathroom and praised Chris, Rita and the crew for working respectfully while the household continued living there. A March 2026 reviewer mentioned both kitchen renovation and an energy retrofit, and said the team answered questions promptly and stayed calm when challenges arose. Older customers also describe structural and exterior repairs. A March 2025 reviewer said the team supported and resealed a fieldstone foundation at their 1900s home, then added a farmers-style porch with Ipe decking and wire railing. The customer recalled Chris recommending vertical rather than horizontal railing because children regularly visited. In October 2024, a different homeowner said Square & Plumb removed necessary siding, trim and roofing and worked with their window company to locate and repair leaks left after another builder's renovation. At the time of that review, the homeowner said the house had remained dry for a year after the repairs. In July 2024, a customer said their pavilion and pool shed were completed on time and on budget. A June 2024 reviewer described receiving progress photographs and schedule updates, while a May 2024 customer said a basement bathroom and replacement window were both completed within the quoted budget and on time. A separate April 2023 leak account remained provisional: the customer said Chris had helped identify the likely source, but they were still waiting for heavy rain to see whether the fix had worked.
