Your Trusted General Contracting Contractor in Bellingham
Bellingham is a semi-rural town of about 17,160, with 58% of its homes built before 1980 — a mix that calls for straightforward prep, sound priming and a paint that survives New England freeze-thaw. As a registered Massachusetts contractor (HIC #207214), we pull permits with the Bellingham building department, coordinate licensed subs for specialty trades, and manage the schedule end to end.
Bellingham (Norfolk County) is a semi-rural community — most renovations here center on weathering, lead-safe prep, and color-matching to existing exteriors. The town has a population of about 17,160 and a median home value near $426K (US Census, ACS 2023), and sits about 22 miles from our Hudson shop.

At $425,900, the typical Bellingham home runs about 25% below the median of the 143 towns we serve. We quote accordingly — durable mid-grade products that hold up through New England winters without pricing the job past what the house calls for.
The median Bellingham home was built in 1975, and 58% of the town's housing predates 1980. That means a good share of newer builds: sound substrate, less stripping, and a job that turns on finish quality rather than restoration.
83% of Bellingham's housing is single-family, so nearly every job is a whole-house exterior or a room-by-room interior for one owner — one point of contact, and a schedule we can hold to. At 79% owner-occupied, most of the homes we quote here are lived in by the people paying for the work — they see the prep, so we do it properly.
We work out of Hudson, 22.3 miles away, and regularly in neighboring Franklin, Mendon, Blackstone — so a crew is usually already in the area rather than traveling in for a single job.
What Bellingham's housing is typically like
Bellingham's median home was built in 1975 (US Census). Homes of this period in Massachusetts are generally mid-century stock — commonly Raised ranch, split-level, Garrison Colonial and Contemporary.
Drywall replaces plaster through this period and trim gets plainer, so interior prep is usually lighter. Lead remains a real possibility for anything built before 1978. Larger uninterrupted wall planes mean roller and spray technique shows more than it does on older, busier surfaces.
Because that predates the 1978 residential lead ban, we treat Bellingham work as lead-safe by default — we are an EPA Lead-Safe certified firm, and containment and HEPA cleanup are part of the job rather than an extra.
