Construction & Remodeling in Quincy, MA

Quincy mixes older single-family and two-family homes with a large share of apartments and condos, and about one in six units was built in 2000 or later. As a coastal city, it has higher design wind speeds than inland Massachusetts, and some sites need a flood map check.

What shapes a project in Quincy

Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.

  1. A mix of older homes and newer buildings

    About 37% of Quincy's housing units were built before 1940, while about 17% were built in 2000 or later. About 33% are single-family detached houses and about 40% are in buildings with five or more units.

  2. Coastal wind and flood checks

    The residential code sets Quincy's design wind speed at 121 mph, slightly higher than Boston's, with a 40 psf ground snow load. For properties near the shore, check the FEMA flood map for the address before design begins.
