"As a testament to how happy we were with our first renovation provided by the Curtice Group in 2021, which provided completely new kitchen/dining/mudroom/bath, we hired Scott and his team again in 2024-25 for another major renovation. This job was composed of 3 main parts: a gut remodel of our main bathroom, renovation of a large attic space (about 700 sq ft), and whole-home conversion from steam radiators (gas) to heat pumps including removal of all radiators and a chimney. The bathroom now is attractive and more functional, the attic adds a large amount of useful space as an office/kid room/guest area, and central air makes a more comfortable climate. I’m a big fan of the design/build concept, because you really don’t want to separate those two elements into different contractors, and if you find a talented company, they can handle all aspects of the job fluidly. Scott Curtice has a real knack for design, he is attentive and cares about details, and he will perform carpentry and touch-up work as needed. Moreover, he handled all the project coordination so that we could do the jobs that we do well, which do not include home renovation."

"We had a very small roof area need to be repaired. I sent request to multiple company to give a service quote. Few of them sent me replies and stated that they are too busy to come. Matt of MMP Consturction's contacted me promptly, scheduled an on-site visit and gave us a quote right away. The work was then scheduled and finished quickly. Matt did great job on reaching out, effective communication, and always arriving on-time. He also gave an evaluation on our roof condition. Also, Eric and Don did excellent job on finishing the project. They are all very polite, knowledgeable, and showed their professionalism. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Matt and his crew. We are very grateful for having them arriving on-time before the winter storm to prevent potential damage of the house. From their react, we see a warm heart. No job is big or small, all jobs are equally important. Understanding the difficulties of others, for the people, been appreciated by the people. Thank you again for your high quality service. We definitively recommend MMP Construction Inc. to anyone for any related home project."

"We were happy to meet Mike and George after starting a job with a different contractor. We had been told that our wall could not be removed. However, Mike and his crew not only removed that wall, but also made our other doorways larger. We have heard that permitting in our town of Westwood can be a challenge, but the process went well for us. Their workmanship was meticulous and we felt that he treated the job like he was working on his own house. Chris, his foreman, brought a fresh approach to the job and helped us, with his years of knowledge, create a beautiful and functional space. Mike stayed within budget and we weren't shocked at the end with any additional expenses. We highly recommend Mike and his crew for home renovations."

"To be fully honest, at first I was a little skeptical, as I am with most contractors, but they came in on time, were very clean, and were punctual about the things I asked for and needed done. The crew was efficient and the work was done correctly. They even helped and built my elderly neighbor a garage bathroom after seeing the work at my house. I definitely will have them back to build my ADU for my in-laws."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

A frequent mistake during home building in Dover is assuming permit timelines match neighboring towns. Homeowners also overlook strict setback rules and maximum lot coverage constraints. Failing to identify protected wetlands before starting causes severe project delays. You must also account for required distances from private Title 5 septic systems. Address these factors early to keep your project compliant and on track.

Helpful?

Home building in Dover involves unexpected expenses related to the town's geography and infrastructure. Excavating subsurface ledge requires specialized equipment and significantly increases foundation expenses. Upgrading an undersized or failing private septic system to meet health codes adds substantial expense. You will also encounter extra fees and delays if your project requires a variance, wetland environmental review, or new MA utility connection permits.

Helpful?

To determine if your property is ready for home building, review your zoning district for permitted uses and setback requirements. Check local MA conservation maps to identify restricted wetlands or riverfront areas. Because Dover relies on private sewer, your existing Title 5 septic system must have the capacity to handle added bedrooms. Finally, evaluate the soil for shallow bedrock, which complicates foundation work.

Helpful?

Well-executed home building strongly supports resale value in Dover. Expanding livable space and adding bedrooms attracts family-oriented buyers drawn to the top-rated local school district. However, any added bedrooms must align with your permitted septic system capacity. Constructing accessory structures like barns or garages also boosts appeal. Always secure proper permits, as unpermitted work creates liabilities during the mandatory MA resale inspection process.

Helpful?

Gather your current plot plan showing lot boundaries, existing structures, and setbacks before starting home building. Secure your most recent Title 5 septic inspection report and the system's as-built plan. You also need copies of prior building permits, a certificate of occupancy, and any wetland delineation reports. Documenting this information helps local MA professionals accurately assess your property and streamline the planning process.
