Collaborate with Stella - A Builder You Can Rely On

Elevating Visions into Reality

At Stella Construction & Home Services, we believe design-driven projects deserve a builder who listens, respects intent, and executes with precision. If you’re an architect or interior designer seeking a construction partner in Greater Boston who truly collaborates, you’ve come to the right place.

We specialize in turning architectural visions into built reality, whether that’s a custom-designed new home, a modern addition, or a full gut renovation. With decades of high-end remodeling experience and now expanding into ground-up custom homes, we offer the craftsmanship, systems expertise, and transparent communication that design professionals demand.

Why Architects & Designers Choose Stella

Design Respect + Technical Expertise

We don’t just build; we interpret. We understand the language of plans, details, and specifications, and we never treat drawings as optional suggestions. Your design intent remains central from permit through punch list.

Seamless Collaboration & Clear Communication

We use a rigorous change-management protocol and shared tools (e.g. cloud-based live models, RFIs, coordination meetings) so design and site stay aligned. You’ll always know where things stand.

Depth of Experience in High-End Remodeling & Custom Builds

Our remodeling roots (whole-home renovations, additions, luxury interiors) give us deep insight into existing conditions, systems retrofits, and finish-level expectations. Now, we are bringing that rigor into new construction.

We regularly build projects in the $60,000 to + $2.5 million range

Process Control & Trust

We are licensed, bonded, and insured. We manage cost transparency, scheduling, subcontractor quality, and warranty follow-through so you and your client don’t worry about the next surprise.

Local Knowledge + Boston-Area Network

We live and work in Greater Boston, navigating local permitting, structural codes, and sourcing local materials efficiently. Our footprint is well established in Cambridge, Newton, Brookline, Somerville, and surrounding towns.
