Building Restoration
Families usually love their old homes, especially those with some historic detail or relevance. But there are many ways to modernize an old home to make it more comfortable and useful compared with when it was built.
Our family business, McCarthy Contractors, is a second generation construction company with a long-time history in the Boston area and the rest of the New England community. Our late father, Robert L. McCarthy, started the business in 1960. We are his sons, Frank and Robert J. McCarthy, and have continued the business and carried on the name and reputation of his company since he passed away in 2000.
We worked by his side for decades, developing strong ties with the community and respect for the quality of our work. We love what we do and want to help you turn your home project into your dream house, whether it’s putting on an addition, remodeling and updating a kitchen or bath, or putting in a new powder room. No job is too small or large for us to help you with.

- N. Palm of Tyngsborough, MA.
"Bob and Frank have been framing homes for over fifteen years for my family and myself, there's not a person or a builder that I know who is or hasn't hired them for their construction needs. Further, I have never personally heard one bad comment about their pricing, work or character. I highly recommend you contact McCarthy Contractors if you intend on getting what you paid for".
