Historic Renovations
Preserving Historic Homes in Mattapoisett, Dartmouth & Westport, MA
Figueiredo Carpenter & Custom Builder specializes in historic home restoration, completing dozens of restorations on homes and historical landmarks, some dating back to the 1730s. Our work blends traditional craftsmanship with modern standards for safety, durability, and comfort, ensuring your home’s architectural integrity is preserved for generations.
Since Tom began his carpentry career in 1980, he has collected over 50 unique traditional mouldings that are exclusive to his woodshop, providing homeowners with authentic period-appropriate finishes that cannot be sourced elsewhere.
Rare Materials & Period-Accurate Details
In addition to mouldings, Tom’s workshop houses rare shaker-style cabinetry, reclaimed lumber, and specialty hardwoods. Once a client decides on cabinetry, doors, or other fixtures, we bring samples directly to your home, so you can select pieces that perfectly complement your space.
Every historic renovation project is approached with attention to architectural detail, material authenticity, and structural integrity, ensuring additions or updates match the original style seamlessly.
Expert Additions & Structural Work
Figueiredo Carpenter & Custom Builder doesn’t just repair — we enhance historic homes with additions, renovations, and repairs that remain architecturally sensitive. Tom’s deep knowledge of traditional homebuilding techniques allows us to:
- Build additions that match the original style
- Repair or replace period-accurate trim, mouldings, and woodwork
- Restore or replicate windows, doors, mantels, and cabinetry
- Integrate modern structural improvements discreetly
