How the job runs
Same process on every job — you always know what happens next.
Walk-through & estimate
We look at the structure together, talk scope, and you get a written estimate — free, no pressure.
Permits & schedule
We handle the town paperwork and give you a week-by-week schedule before demo starts.
Build & inspections
Same crew start to finish. You get photo updates and we walk the job together before final payment.
Additions in Massachusetts typically run $250–$450 per square foot depending on foundation, roofline and finishes. Structural repairs start around $2,500. Every job is different — that's what the free estimate is for.
Questions homeowners
ask us
Do you pull the permits or do I?
We do. R&L coordinates permit drawings, files with your town's building department and schedules every inspection. You sign, we handle the rest.
How long does a home addition take in Massachusetts?
A typical 200–400 sq ft addition runs 10–16 weeks after permits, depending on the season and the town's inspection schedule. We give you a written timeline before we start.
Do you work with my architect or engineer?
Yes. If you already have plans, we build from them. If you don't, we bring in the structural engineer and draftsman we've used on past Boston-area jobs.
