Brusa Home Improvement, formerly known as "Central Mass Handyman" is owned and operated by Chris Brusa. Established in 1994. Licensed, and Insured. Excellent references. Jobs are priced by the job, or as some customers prefer by the hour. Flexible hours, and rates.

"Overall Rating is an A+++. Project came out significantly better than we could have wished for. Chris Brusa , owner of Brusa Home Improvement was phenomenal, both as a contractor and as a person. We had a soaking tub and small shower stall removed. Chris created a linen closet where the shower was, installed a new 60" X 36" walk-in shower, porcelain wall and floor tiles, niche's, accent tiling, grab bar and exhaust fan. We purchased most of the materials since we wanted some very specific colors and materials. Of course there were a few challenges - like the pocket door became unattached and the accent tile was not your standard mesh-backed tile. We also added custom shelves in the niche's as well as installing a new exhaust fan in the second bath with insulated ducting and new external vents. Amazing how scope creep can happen. Chris took it all in stride. Chris managed and scheduled the work and the few subcontractors (i.e. plasterer and plumber). All were high quality craftsmen and genuinely nice people. Very accommodating. His fees were very competitive but we found that initial scheduling with contractors will require a wait. One that we found to be very much worth it. No only would we hire Chris again, we will recommend him and his subcontractors to anyone needing their services."

VC Construction is committed to providing professional, reliable, superior quality sitework construction services in an effort to attain total customer satisfaction. It is our belief that the foundation of success is based on hard work, honesty, integrity and a dedication to excellence. We are also committed to the fundamental purpose of providing long-term, financially sound employment to the people who strive to make VC Construction a success - our most valuable resource - our employees!

"The process from beginning to end was incredible. Vanny came over and discussed my very general idea of what I was looking to do and helped me make those plans more concrete. The quote he provided was reasonable and the project cost was exactly what was quoted. What stood out to me the most was the quality of work done. No corners were cut - if something was being built from scratch, it was done correctly....if something that was being renovated was less than ideal (existing walls/studs out of plumb, uneven flooring, etc) it was made as correct as possible before the work was done. I would recommend VC Construction without hesitation!"

MP has a large in-house team of experts that work efficiently and adapt to the home owner’s needs and preferences. The employees worked 6 days a week and took great pride in their work.

The onsite foreman, Adriano, demonstrated expertise and kindness. Seichelle and Marco did an excellent job with operations, ordering materials and problem-solving. We have been back in our home for 10 months. Anytime I have an issue, Seichelle and the team have addressed it. They have gone above and beyond what is expected. We could not be more pleased with our project. We strongly recommend MP for your next project!"

FAQs for custom home building projects in Shrewsbury, MA

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200

The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour. 

Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
