The main office is located in the Central Massachusetts Town of Grafton in the 1860's Old Town House which is next to the historic Grafton Common. A second office is located in Westford, MA

As the Company's clients attest (see video above and other reviews below), our interest is on a “client first” focus. This business model was set by Eric L. Gilmore, the Company’s President. It is a commitment to client service that flows from his work history in residential and commercial construction observing what worked for clients and what did not. He believes and has learned that putting the client first requires constant development of communication and dedication to making the building process client friendly - pleasant and satisfying.
