Home Remodeling in Stoneham, MA

Stoneham sits at the center of the area we serve, between the Middlesex Fells and the towns that ring Route 128. It is a town of single-family streets, with neighborhoods such as Bear Hill, Colonial Park, Lindenwood and Nobility Hill each showing a different chapter of how the town was built.

The houses. Many Stoneham homes date from the early 1900s, with late-1800s Victorians still standing near the center. A second large group arrived around the middle of the century: capes, garrison colonials and ranches on modest lots. The two groups ask for different things. The older houses have plaster walls, tall windows and rooms divided by function. The mid-century houses have compact kitchens, one full bathroom for the whole family and basements that were built for storage.

The projects that suit them. In a cape, the upstairs bathroom lives under a sloped ceiling, so the shower, the vanity and the door swing have to be drawn to the inch. In a colonial, the wall between the kitchen and the dining room is often the one owners want open, and it frequently carries the floor above. Ranch basements can become family rooms once moisture and ceiling height are reviewed. Across both eras, strip oak flooring is worth checking before it is replaced; it can often be sanded and refinished.

How we approach it. Design comes first: measured drawings, selections and a priced scope before demolition. Plumbing and electrical work is carried out by licensed trade partners, structural design by a Massachusetts-registered professional engineer, and permit requirements are confirmed with the Stoneham building department during planning.
