The short answer

General Contracting & New Construction in Woburn, MA

NC Construction is a general contractor based in Woburn, MA that handles home additions, new construction and general construction work across Massachusetts. The job includes planning, framing, roofing, siding, interior finish and coordination of trades, with help on the building permit process and one point of contact from estimate to final walkthrough.

General Contracting & New Construction

An addition or a new build has a lot of moving parts: foundation, framing, windows, roof, siding, mechanicals and finish work. When those pieces are handled by different people who never talk to each other, the schedule slips and the homeowner ends up playing referee. NC Construction runs the whole job as a general construction contractor, so you have one company and one person responsible for how the pieces fit together.

Nathan Cunha, the owner, is on the job site. That means the person who walked your property and wrote your estimate is the same person checking the framing and answering your questions when the walls go up. No hand-offs to a salesperson, no guessing who to call.

We build second-story additions, rear and side additions, garages, and new homes from the ground up. Because our own work covers framing, roofing, siding, floors, tile and finish carpentry, the shell and the finish are built by people who know what comes next.

What is included

General Contracting & New Construction, start to finish

  • Home additions

    Second-story additions, bump-outs, family rooms, primary suites and in-law space, tied into the existing structure and roofline so it looks like it was always there.

  • New construction

    New homes and accessory structures built from foundation to final trim, with the framing, exterior and interior finish handled under one contract.

  • Framing and structural work

    Wall and roof framing, beam and header changes, opening up load-bearing walls and repairing structural damage found during a project.

  • Exterior envelope

    Roofing, siding, trim and weather barriers installed as part of the build, so the new space is sealed before winter.

  • Interior finish

    Floors, tile, doors, trim and built-ins completed in house, which keeps the finish consistent with the rest of the home.

  • Trade coordination and permits

    We schedule the trades the job needs and help handle the building permit process with your city or town.

Built for New England homes

Many homes around Woburn and the rest of Middlesex County are capes, colonials and post-war ranches that were built small and have been added onto over the decades. A good addition respects that history: matching roof pitch and eave lines, lining up floor heights, and making sure the new foundation and framing tie in cleanly to an older house that may not be perfectly square.

New England weather sets the rules for the build. Frost depth drives how deep footings go, heavy snow loads drive roof framing, and freeze-thaw cycles punish any gap in flashing or housewrap. We plan the schedule so the new structure is framed, roofed and closed in before the worst of winter, and we detail the exterior for ice and wind-driven rain from day one.

How it works

Our general contracting & new construction process

01

Site visit and scope

Nathan walks the property with you, looks at the existing structure and talks through what you want to build and how you plan to use it.

02

Written estimate and plan

You get a clear written estimate that breaks down the work. If plans or engineering are needed, we explain what the town will ask for.

03

Permit and build

We help file for the building permit, then move through foundation, framing, exterior and interior in order, with updates as each phase wraps up.

04

Final walkthrough

Inspections are closed out, the site is cleaned, and we walk the finished space with you to go over every detail before the job is done.

General Contracting & New Construction: common questions

Yes. Additions and new construction in Massachusetts almost always require a building permit from your city or town, and many need stamped plans. We explain what your local building department will ask for and help handle the permit process.
It depends on size, foundation type, whether it is one or two stories, and the level of finish. Costs vary a lot from project to project, so the most reliable number is a free written estimate after we see the property.
Building out needs yard space and a new foundation. Building up keeps the footprint but depends on whether the existing walls and foundation can carry a second story. We look at both during the site visit and tell you what makes sense for your house.
Usually yes. Most of the work happens outside the existing living space until the tie-in. We plan that phase to keep the house weather-tight and keep dust and disruption contained.
The owner, Nathan. He is on the job and is your single point of contact from the estimate through the final walkthrough.
Yes. New construction is one of our core services, from framing through roofing, siding and interior finish. Reach out with your lot and plans and we will put together an estimate.
