Johnson Construction & Remodeling

Medway issues building permits through its Building Department at Town Hall, with separate plumbing, electrical, and gas permits required when fixtures are relocated or a gas range is added; standard residential remodels typically clear in one to two weeks. Homes near the village center and the Charles predate 1978 and fall under EPA RRP lead-safe rules, with full Massachusetts deleading requirements where a child under six lives in the home. Most of the town's subdivision housing is newer and avoids that hurdle.

Medway sits in the outer-MetroWest band — below Boston metro but above central Massachusetts, reflecting its commuter-belt labor market. A mid-range bath remodel typically runs $16,000–$30,000, with full gut jobs reaching the upper $30,000s. Kitchens generally land $30,000–$58,000 mid-range, climbing into the $70,000s for custom cabinetry. The main cost drivers are panel upgrades for modern appliance loads, supply-line replacement in 1970s homes, and framing to open a closed 1970s kitchen toward a family room.

Massachusetts requires a written contract and a Home Improvement Contractor registration for most residential kitchen & bath remodel work; ask for the registration number and check it before paying a deposit.
