Would Absolutely Use Them Again
Donald and Caroline were great in accommodating all of our needs and changes throughout the renovation of our parents' condo. They always kept open lines of communication, and made sure that we knew how any changes affected the total price of the project. We would absolutely use them again in the future.

203k Gut Rehab
Beantown Builders was a very professional with us. We completed a 203k gut rehab with them, and it was a good experience. The work was completed on time, and the project turned out great! The PM assigned to my job was awesome, and the owner took a vested interest in it as well, helping me through the design and lending process. Would highly recommend!!

FAQs

Are ADUs legal in Boston?

Yes! Most single-family homeowners can build an ADU on their property, but it may depend on zoning regulations, lot size, and design constraints.

Boston has updated ADU pilot programs in certain neighborhoods, and rules vary by area. We handle all permitting to ensure your unit complies with local requirements.

Boston allows attached, detached, and basement/garage conversion ADUs in certain zoning districts. We can help determine the best option for your property.

An ADU can significantly boost property value by creating additional living space and rental potential. Beyond resale, many homeowners find the true value is in long-term flexibility — whether it’s housing family members, lowering retirement expenses, or generating steady rental income in a high-demand city.

Timelines depend on scope. A simple basement conversion might take a few months, while building a detached unit with utilities and full foundations can extend to a year or more. The permitting process in Boston also adds time, so working with our experienced contractors can streamline the schedule.
