Sturgeon Construction & Restoration LLC

Sturgeon Construction & Restoration LLC is a two-person outfit in Natick that takes on a deliberately small number of jobs at a time — kitchens, bathrooms, additions and period-accurate restorations across Boston's MetroWest suburbs. The company describes itself as a boutique, family-owned firm with more than twenty years of operating experience, run by owner and principal Derck Sturgeon with Kimberly Sturgeon coordinating projects. Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration, number 187680, checks out against the state registry as active and held in the company's own name — the one credential here that does not rest on the firm's own say-so. The written customer record is short. One homeowner review, posted to Houzz in October 2021, describes a significant renovation that included gutting two and a half bathrooms and expanding a master bath; the reviewer wrote that the process and construction were "flawless," praised the attention to detail, and said the job came in on budget and on time — enough to hire the company again for kitchen cabinetry. That single account is the whole of the 5.0 average Houzz publishes. BuildZoom carries no reviews at all, though it does show permitted work: a leaking shower pan repair in Chestnut Hill and a full bathroom rebuild in Brookline, both permitted in 2018. Two things are worth raising on a first call. The licensing picture is split across sources — the registry-verified credential is the Home Improvement Contractor registration, while Houzz separately lists an unrestricted construction supervisor's licence, CS-107254, that comes from the directory rather than a registry check; ask to see both. And with one review on file, dated 2021, there is little recent third-party history to weigh, so references from the past year or two are worth requesting directly. This is a reasonable call for a homeowner who wants a single experienced builder personally on the job — particularly bathroom or older-home work — rather than a firm with a long public track record. Confirm the construction supervisor's licence and ask for recent client references before signing.
