Kitchen remodels, home renovations, ADUs, additions, new construction, and decks. One contractor, one point of contact, start to finish.
Clarke Building Company provides full-service residential general contracting across West Newbury and the North Shore. From complete kitchen overhauls to new home construction, every project is handled with the same direct approach: clear communication, honest pricing, and work that holds up.
Dave Clarke runs the company personally. He's on the job - not managing from a distance - which means homeowners get a contractor who knows every phase of their project, from the first walkthrough through the final punch list. That kind of hands-on ownership is what separates Clarke Building from the crews that show up, subcontract everything out, and disappear.
Whether you're renovating an older home in West Newbury, adding space for a growing family, or building new on the North Shore, Clarke Building brings the experience and the accountability to get it done right. Meet Dave Clarke to learn more about the company.
A kitchen remodel is one of the highest-impact investments a homeowner can make - and one of the most complex to execute well. Clarke Building Company handles the full scope: layout reconfiguration, custom cabinetry coordination, countertop installation, tile work, lighting, and all rough-in trades. The result is a kitchen that functions the way you actually live, built to last.

Not every project starts from scratch, and not every home needs a full gut renovation. Clarke Building handles targeted renovations - updating living spaces, finishing basements, opening floor plans, upgrading systems, and refreshing interiors - with the same level of craft applied to larger builds. If it's in your home and it needs to be better, this is where that work gets done.

Accessory Dwelling Units are one of the most practical ways North Shore homeowners are adding value and flexibility to their properties.

These projects require experience navigating local zoning, and Clarke Building has that experience.

When you need more space but moving isn't the answer, a house addition is often the most cost-effective path forward. Clarke Building Company designs and builds additions that integrate seamlessly with the existing structure - whether that's a first-floor family room, a primary suite above the garage, or a full second-story addition. Every addition is engineered to match the original home in both form and function.

Building a home from the ground up requires a general contractor who can manage every phase of the process - site work, foundation, framing, mechanicals, insulation, finish carpentry, and everything in between. Clarke Building Company takes on new residential construction projects across the North Shore, bringing the same owner-operated attention to detail that defines every project, from slab to certificate of occupancy.
