Business Overview
General Development is a small crew of licensed tradespeople and carpenters. They take both residential and commercial jobs, with a recent focus on commercial remodels for stores and restaurants. Typical projects range from single-room bathroom work to new structure construction and multi-trade commercial fit-outs.
Key Services

- Plumbing: fixture installation and repair (bathtubs, showers, sinks, toilets), water heaters, sump pumps, drains, sewer work, and gas line service.
- Electrical: electric inspections and repairs tied to plumbing and remodeling projects.
- General contracting: additions, new homes, detached garages, ADUs, patios, and commercial remodels.
- Special installations: hot water recirculation pumps, garbage disposals, and custom plumbing layouts for commercial kitchens.
Areas Served
Their service area centers on Wakefield, MA and stretches across northern and eastern Massachusetts, including nearby towns such as Lynn, Woburn, Billerica, Melrose, Reading, and Burlington. They also take assignments in farther suburbs and select southern New Hampshire towns when schedules allow. Work in urban and suburban settings is common, from older New England homes to modern commercial spaces.
Company History
General Development began focusing on commercial renovation a few years ago. The company grew from small residential jobs into multi-trade commercial projects by adding demo crews, metal stud framing, and an on-site carpentry team. That shift created steady partnerships with local shop owners and restaurateurs who needed reliable remodel crews.
Leadership
Leadership comes from hands-on tradespeople with practical field experience. Project leads often start work on site and stay through project completion. The company keeps ties to local trade associations and community building efforts, maintaining a visible presence at permitting offices and local job sites throughout Wakefield and neighboring towns.
