What We Do
Our Services
Custom home construction, additions, kitchen and bath remodeling, and outdoor living — built by an experienced team, managed end to end. Every project is run in-house by craftsmen who've worked together for over two decades. We've built our reputation on doing the work ourselves rather than subcontracting it out, which means tighter quality control, faster decisions on site, and a single point of accountability from foundation to final walkthrough. Whether it's a full new build in Newton or a kitchen remodel in Arlington, the same team that quotes the project is the team that builds it.

Project Spotlight
Featured Project
Somerville, MA
Two-Story Addition and Full Interior Remodel
Removed an existing enclosed first-floor porch, rebuilt the structure, and added a full second story — expanding the living room and adding a new home office upstairs. Finished with Andersen 400 series windows, custom trim, and a new bath suite. The project required engineered beams to carry the new load above the original foundation, and we coordinated with the town for structural review before framing began. We salvaged the homeowner's original hardwood pattern and matched it across the expanded footprint so the addition reads as part of the original house rather than a bolt-on. Total build was completed in just under sixteen weeks with the family living on site throughout — a coordination challenge we managed by sequencing the work to keep the kitchen and primary bedroom usable at every phase.
Project spanned 6 months from permit to final walkthrough. All trades managed in-house, single point of contact throughout.

North Heritage handled our full kitchen remodel from demo to final tile. The team showed up every day, kept the site clean, and delivered exactly on schedule. Communication was clear from start to finish.

Kitchen Remodel — Newton, MA
We hired Adriano and his team for a second-story addition. They navigated permits, structural challenges, and coordinated every trade. The finished work is exceptional — and they were genuinely nice to have around for months.

After a bad experience with another contractor, working with North Heritage was night and day. They walked us through every decision, stuck to the budget, and the craftsmanship is outstanding. Highly recommend.
