Timothy McHugh Builders, Inc.

Timothy McHugh Builders is an Edgartown outfit best known on Martha's Vineyard for being tapped as contractor on HGTV's 2015 Dream Home — a nationally televised build that put Tim McHugh, an Island native, working alongside architect Patrick Ahearn on a new house on Crocker Drive. Local coverage from the Vineyard Gazette and Martha's Vineyard Magazine names McHugh as the builder for that project and, separately, as the contractor on a mixed retail-and-residential redevelopment of Edgartown's Yellow House with developers Michael and Rebecca Hegarty. There isn't a public trail of everyday customer reviews to draw on beyond that press coverage, so most of what's known about the company comes from its role on a handful of higher-profile Island projects rather than word-of-mouth about routine jobs. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. Worth knowing: BuildZoom's own directory listing for the company shows conflicting status information for a separate construction-supervisor license number — active on one line, cancelled on another, on the same page. A reasonable call for an Edgartown-area build with some track record on prominent local projects, though there isn't much written by past customers to gauge day-to-day service against.
