Thinking about building an ADU? 🤔 Let’s make sure you understand the rules before you start.

Massachusetts’ new ADU laws have made it easier for many homeowners to add an accessory dwelling unit “by-right,” but that doesn’t mean every project is automatically approved.

In our latest blog, we break down the key ADU laws for 2026 in plain language, from owner-occupancy and parking requirements to size limits and local zoning regulations, and why thoughtful planning is still essential for a successful project 🏘️

Your home should support the way your life evolves.

If you’re looking to make aging-in-place preparations for yourself or aging parents, welcoming adult children back home, creating a space for long-term guests, or finally building your dream workshop, a carriage house or in-law suite can create the flexibility your family needs today and for years to come.

Thoughtful planning is key. That’s why at Gilmore Building Co, we take a design-build approach that helps homeowners make informed decisions from the beginning.

Many homeowners think energy efficiency is just about lowering their utility bills. The reality is that the biggest benefit is often comfort.

Rooms that are too hot or too cold, drafty in the winter, with uneven temperatures throughout the house, usually indicate a bigger issue than a furnace, window, or thermostat.

A high-performance retrofit looks at how your entire home works as a system: insulation, air sealing, ventilation, windows, and mechanical systems working together.

Check out the guide we’ve put together explaining how high-performance remodeling and innovative building methods can improve the way your home looks, feels, and functions for years to come.

Most remodeling and custom home projects don’t get derailed because of construction.

The most common disruptions come from decisions that weren’t made early enough. That’s one reason we use a design-build approach.

Instead of managing design, budgeting, and construction across different teams, design-build brings everything together from the beginning. This means better communication, more informed decisions, and fewer surprises throughout your project.

At Gilmore Building Co., we believe you deserve real information before making major decisions. That’s why we invest heavily in planning, education, and collaboration long before construction begins.

A successful project is about having a clear process that guides you every step of the way, not just the finished product.
